HTML
Web page
HTML is the markup every web page is written in. A saved .html file contains the page's structure and text; its images, styles and scripts usually live in separate files.

How to convert HTML to MD
Add your HTML web pages
Drop HTML (HTM) 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.
MD is already chosen
Press Convert. There is nothing else to set. The work happens in this tab.
Download
Save the MD, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
Why ToAny
Private by construction
The HTML to MD converter is part of this page and runs inside your browser. Your web pages are never sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
No upload, no queue
Nothing has to travel to a server and back, so the conversion starts the moment you press Convert, even on a slow connection.
Free, without an account
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark. Add several files and download them together as a ZIP.
HTML to MD: what to expect
Markdown is far easier to edit and keep in a repository or a notes app than HTML. Headings, links, lists and emphasis convert cleanly; layout, styling and scripts have no Markdown equivalent and are left behind.
Scripts and other active content in the HTML are removed before it is converted.
HTML vs MD
MD
Markdown
Markdown is plain text with a few symbols for headings, lists, links and emphasis. It is readable as-is and converts cleanly to HTML, which is why developers and note-takers favour it.

Questions
Are my web pages uploaded anywhere?
No. The HTML to MD conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
Is anything lost when converting HTML to MD?
Text is kept. Formatting carries over only as far as MD supports it.
Can I convert several HTML files at once?
Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.
How do I convert HTML to MD on Windows, Mac, iPhone or Android?
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 HTML file, press Convert and save the MD. There is nothing to install.
Is there a file size limit?
Yes. Files up to 150 MB are accepted; a larger one is refused with a message. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
