Works in Safari, Chrome, and Firefox on macOS. No Homebrew packages or DMG installs needed. AudioUtils uses WebAssembly to run the conversion engine locally. Your audio stays on your device.

Safari on macOS supports WebAssembly natively. Conversion speeds match desktop apps.

Both MP3 and OGG are lossy formats. Each re-encode can degrade quality slightly. Convert once and keep the result. The output is identical regardless of which device or browser you use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is OGG better than MP3?

In terms of audio quality per bitrate, yes. OGG Vorbis at 128kbps sounds roughly equivalent to MP3 at 160-192kbps. It's also completely open-source and patent-free.

What apps support OGG?

Most modern media players (VLC, foobar2000), web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge), game engines (Unity, Unreal, Godot), and audio editors (Audacity). Apple devices need a third-party app.

Can I play OGG files on iPhone?

Not natively. iOS doesn't support OGG out of the box. You'll need a third-party player like VLC for iOS, or convert to M4A/MP3 instead.

Is the conversion lossless?

No. Both MP3 and OGG are lossy formats. Converting between them involves re-encoding, which can introduce a slight quality loss. For best results, convert from a lossless source like WAV or FLAC.
