Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, iTunes) don't natively support OGG Vorbis playback. AAC (M4A) is Apple's preferred format, offering similar quality to OGG with full Apple ecosystem compatibility. Convert to play game audio or music on Apple devices.

Converting between lossy formats (OGG to AAC) involves some quality loss since both discard audio data. For best results, use high quality settings (256kbps+). If you have the original lossless source, convert from that instead for better quality.

For music, use 256kbps (High) for excellent quality or 320kbps (Best) for maximum quality. For podcasts and speech, 128-192kbps is sufficient. AAC is more efficient than MP3, so these bitrates deliver quality comparable to higher MP3 bitrates.

AAC is the audio codec (compression method), while M4A is the file container. M4A files contain AAC audio. Our converter outputs .m4a files with AAC audio, which is the standard format used by iTunes and Apple Music.

Yes! AAC (M4A) is widely supported on Android devices, Windows, and most modern audio players. It's not Apple-exclusive, just Apple's preferred format. Converting to AAC gives you broader compatibility than OGG.

Both AAC and OGG Vorbis are high-quality lossy formats. At similar bitrates, they offer comparable quality—both are better than MP3. The main difference is compatibility: OGG for games/web, AAC for Apple/mainstream devices.

Yes, this is a common use case. Game soundtracks often come as OGG files. Converting to AAC lets you play them on iPhone, iPad, or add them to your iTunes library.

Basic metadata (title, artist, album) is converted from Vorbis comments to iTunes-compatible tags. Album art and other metadata should transfer, though complex metadata may need manual adjustment in iTunes.

Currently, this tool processes one file at a time for optimal browser performance. For batch conversion, process files sequentially. Each conversion maintains your selected quality settings.

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using FFmpeg WebAssembly. Your audio files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy.
