Drop FLAC 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. Open Options first if you want to change the defaults. The work happens in this tab.
Save the CAF, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
The FLAC to CAF converter is part of this page and runs inside your browser. Your audio files 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.
FLAC files are large, and Apple Music, many car stereos and older players will not play them. CAF is what Apple's audio tools and iOS apps use. FLAC is at home in archiving music at full quality; CAF is the usual choice for audio inside Apple's apps and development tools.
The defaults suit most files. Under Options you can trim the start and end.
This pair uses the compatibility engine, ffmpeg built for the browser, because CAF cannot be written by the browser's built-in codecs. It is a one-off download of about 10 MB that the browser keeps, it is slower than the built-in codecs, and it takes files up to 1 GB.
FLAC compresses audio to roughly half the size of WAV without losing anything, like a ZIP for sound. It is the standard for lossless music collections. Apple's Music app is the notable holdout.
Opens in Android, Windows, VLC, most hi-fi players; Apple Music does not import it
FLAC converterCAF is a flexible audio container that Apple introduced with Mac OS X Tiger. It can hold almost any codec and has no practical file size limit, unlike WAV or AIFF. It is common in Apple's developer tools and in apps built on Core Audio.
Opens in macOS and iOS apps such as GarageBand, Logic and QuickTime; fewer players elsewhere

No. The FLAC to CAF conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
It depends on the file. ToAny keeps as much of the original as CAF can hold.
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 FLAC file, press Convert and save the CAF. There is nothing to install.
Yes. FLAC to CAF runs on the compatibility engine, which takes files up to 1 GB, and a long clip takes a while because it is slower than the browser's built-in codecs. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
