Drop CBR files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.
Press Convert. There is nothing else to set. The work happens in this tab.
Save the CBZ, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
The CBR to CBZ converter is part of this page and runs inside your browser. Your comic books are never sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
Nothing has to travel to a server and back, so the conversion starts the moment you press Convert, even on a slow connection.
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark. Add several files and download them together as a ZIP.
CBR is a RAR archive, a format that only WinRAR may create and that some comic readers and tablets handle poorly. CBZ holds the same page images in an ordinary ZIP, which every reader opens.
A password-protected archive is refused, since its contents cannot be read without the password. A comic book archive may hold nothing but page images (and a ComicInfo.xml file). If the archive holds anything else, the conversion is refused and says so.
A CBR is a RAR archive of page images. It is the same idea as a CBZ, but RAR is a proprietary format that only WinRAR may create, so CBZ has become the more portable choice. Many comic downloads are still CBR.

CBR converterA CBZ is simply a ZIP file of page images, usually JPG or PNG, named so that they sort into reading order. The extension tells comic readers to show it as a book. Because it is a ZIP, any archive program can open it.

No. The CBR to CBZ conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
Text is kept. Formatting carries over only as far as CBZ supports it.
Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.
The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the CBR file, press Convert and save the CBZ. There is nothing to install.
Yes. An archive can be up to 500 MB, unpack to at most 1 GB and hold up to 50,000 files; beyond those limits the page says so. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
