Why Convertola

Why use this free file converter

Three rules every tool follows.

    Every tool tells you, right next to the file picker, whether your file is uploaded or stays in your browser.
  • Formats listed up front

    Each page names the file types it accepts and what you can save, before you choose anything.

How it works

How to convert a file online for free

Three steps, whatever the file.

Image, background remover and MP3 tools as glass tiles, one being selected
  1. Match the file to the tool

    Open the converter for the kind of file you want to change. The image converter handles photos and graphics, the background remover cuts a subject out into a transparent PNG, and the MP3 converter turns video and audio files into MP3.

  2. Set the output

    Choose the output format, quality, or bitrate, and change the size or file name if you need to.

  3. Download the result

    Save the file as soon as it is ready. A browser tool keeps the result in this tab only, so download it before you leave the page.

Privacy

File handling and privacy

Every file converter says whether your file is uploaded or stays on the device, and how long a finished file remains available.

  • Uploaded files

    When a tool uploads a file, the result is stored for download and then deleted on the schedule that page shows. It is not added to a public gallery.
  • Browser tools

    When a tool runs in the browser, that file is not sent to Convertola. Download the result before you leave the page.
  • Open access

    There is no sign-in and no library of earlier conversions. Each visit starts with the file you choose.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What can this free file converter convert?

Images between JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, TIFF, BMP, and ICO with the image converter, video and audio files such as MP4, MOV, WAV, M4A, and FLAC to MP3 with the MP3 converter, and photos into transparent PNG cutouts with the background remover. Convertola does not convert PDF, Word, or other documents.

Is this online file converter safe? Are my files uploaded?

The image converter uploads a file and then deletes it on a schedule. The background remover and the MP3 converter stay in your browser. Those tools download an engine, and the file is not sent to Convertola.

How do I convert a file online for free?

Open the converter that matches your file, choose the file from your phone or computer, set the format or quality, and download the result. There is nothing to install.

Is Convertola free, and do I need an account?

Every converter is free to use, and there is no sign-up or account.

How large can a file be?

An image can be up to 10 MB. Audio or video for an MP3 can be up to 150 MB. Each converter takes one file at a time.

How long is a converted image available?

The image download works for 15 minutes, and then the file is deleted. An MP3 made in the browser should be saved before you close the tab.

Will an image look the same after conversion?

JPEG and WebP follow the quality you choose. That control starts at 100. A lower number usually makes a smaller file and can show artifacts. PNG does not add a lossy step, and it cannot bring back detail a JPEG already lost.

Which MP3 bitrate should I choose?

Start at 192 kbps for music. 128 kbps is often enough for speech. 256 and 320 kbps keep more of a clean source. A higher bitrate cannot create detail the original file did not contain.

Which browsers can run Convertola?

Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari can open the site. The MP3 converter and the background remover also need WebAssembly in that browser.
