    AMR vs ALAC

    ALAC is lossless, but it can't restore detail already removed by AMR's compression — the file just gets bigger. Convert when an app or editor requires ALAC.

    About AMR and ALAC

    AMR: AMR is a speech codec made for mobile phones. Older Android and Nokia phones, call recorders and voice-memo apps save recordings as .amr files, which many computers cannot open.

    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.
