AMR to MKV Conversion FAQ
Is the AMR to MKV converter free?
+
Yes. One conversion an hour is free, with no account needed, for a file within the free size limit. A paid plan removes the hourly limit and the size limit, and lets you add several files to one job.
How big an AMR file can I convert to MKV?
+
Free conversions have a size limit per file, set by the type of file, and the page tells you when a file is over it. A paid plan removes that limit, so much larger files can be converted.
Can I convert many AMR files to MKV at once?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
Does the AMR to MKV converter work on phones and tablets?
+
Yes — the UI is responsive and the conversion pipeline runs server-side, so mobile devices upload-then-download just like desktops. iOS and Android browser file pickers (camera roll, Files app) work end-to-end.
Which browsers does the converter support?
+
Chrome, Firefox, Safari (15+), Edge, and Opera. The converter uses standard `<input type="file">` upload — no WebAssembly or PWA dependency — so even older browsers work to upload an AMR and download the MKV.
Are my AMR files kept private?
+
Yes. Uploaded AMR files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted MKV are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy. AMR makes voice recordings absurdly small — an hour of speech fits in a few megabytes — and it is what many phones still record calls in.
What if the MKV download does not start automatically?
+
Disable any pop-up blocker, then click the download button manually. The result link stays active for 24 hours, so if your network drops mid-download you can retry from the result page without re-uploading the AMR.
How long does AMR to MKV conversion take?
+
It depends on the size and length of the file. Small documents and images are usually ready quickly. Long videos take the longest, because most video conversions re-encode every frame. MKV is the archival container of choice because it stores unlimited audio tracks, soft subtitles, chapter markers and cover art in one file. MKV has almost no native hardware support — phones, browsers and TVs usually need VLC or a remux before they will play it.
Do I need to install software to convert AMR to MKV?
+
No — the converter runs entirely in your browser plus our servers. No desktop install, no plugin, no browser extension. Just upload, wait briefly, download the MKV.
Can I convert AMR to MKV without creating an account?
+
Yes for one-off conversions. Sign up free for batch history, server-side file storage, and higher conversion limits. Premium adds parallel workers, bigger file caps, longer result retention, and no ads.
AMR (Adaptive Multi-Rate) is an audio compression format optimized for speech coding. It is commonly used in mobile phones for voice recordings and audio playback.
