Is my file uploaded when converting MP3 to WAV?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser. The file never leaves your device, there is no server to upload to, and the page works offline once loaded.

Is MP3 to WAV conversion free?

Yes, with no account, no watermark and no file limit per day. frogConvert is open source and there is no server cost to recover, because your device does the work.

How large a file can I convert?

Up to 2 GB for a single file, 500 MB total per batch, and 300 files at once. The practical limit is your device's memory, since everything is processed locally.

Convert MP3 to WAV

Convert MP3 to WAV →

Runs on: FFmpeg, compiled to WebAssembly, running in this tab
Steps: Direct, a single conversion
Input: .mp3 · audio/mpeg
Output: .wav · audio/wav
Uploads: None. The file never leaves your device.

What to expect

The file grows roughly tenfold, and the detail MP3 discarded during encoding does not return. Useful for editing, pointless for storage.

Why convert MP3 without uploading

Most online converters take your file, send it to their servers, convert it there and hand back a download link. That means your document sits on someone else's disk, subject to their retention policy and their breaches. It also means you cannot use them offline, and cannot use them at all for anything confidential.

frogConvert does the conversion in the page itself, with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. There is no upload step because there is no server. You can disconnect from the network and it still works.

About the formats

MP3

The format that made digital music portable, using perceptual coding to throw away sound judged inaudible. Universally supported and comfortably outperformed by every codec designed since. More about MP3 files.

WAV

Uncompressed PCM audio exactly as sampled, which is why it is the standard working format for recording and editing. A stereo CD-quality minute is about 10 MB. More about WAV files.
