    About HEVC and AC3

    HEVC: HEVC (H.265) halves file size compared to H.264 and is used by modern iPhones and 4K cameras, but many PCs, browsers and older phones cannot play it.

    AC3: AC3 is Dolby Digital surround sound, used on DVDs, Blu-rays and TV broadcasts. It supports up to 5.1 channels.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I convert HEVC to AC3 on my phone?
    Open this page in your phone's browser (Safari, Chrome, Samsung Internet), tap Choose files, pick your HEVC, make sure AC3 is selected and tap Convert. The AC3 file is saved to your Downloads.
    Will converting HEVC to AC3 reduce quality?
    Only the sound is kept — the picture is dropped, so the AC3 file is far smaller than the HEVC video.
    Can I convert only part of the HEVC?
    Yes. Open Advanced options → Trim and enter a start and end time.
    Is this HEVC to AC3 converter free?
    Yes — completely free with no limits on the number of files, no watermark and no account. The site is supported by ads.
    Are my files uploaded to a server?
    No. The converter runs inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device. That's also why it works for private and confidential recordings.
