    About 3GP and ALAC

    3GP: 3GP was designed for mobile phones in the 2000s. It keeps files tiny, which makes it perfect for old keypad phones, feature phones and very slow connections.

    ALAC: ALAC is Apple's lossless format. It compresses audio to roughly half the size of WAV with zero quality loss and plays natively in Apple Music, iTunes and on every iPhone. It is saved with the .m4a extension.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I convert 3GP to ALAC on my phone?
    Open this page in your phone's browser (Safari, Chrome, Samsung Internet), tap Choose files, pick your 3GP, make sure ALAC is selected and tap Convert. The ALAC file is saved to your Downloads.
    Will converting 3GP to ALAC reduce quality?
    Only the sound is kept — the picture is dropped, so the ALAC file is far smaller than the 3GP video.
    Can I convert only part of the 3GP?
