Drop LZH (LHA) 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 7Z, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.

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.
LZH is a retro format that current operating systems cannot open. 7z usually compresses tighter than ZIP. LZH is at home in opening Japanese software and Amiga archives from the 1990s; 7Z is the usual choice for the smallest archives.
A password-protected archive is refused, since its contents cannot be read without the password. LZH files are read, not installed or mounted: every file inside is unpacked and repacked into the 7Z, so nothing of the system image or installer is run.
LHA, written by Haruyasu Yoshizaki as LHarc in 1988, was one of the most widely used archive formats in Japan and on the Amiga. Self-extracting LZH files circulated on bulletin boards in the 1990s. Current operating systems do not open it themselves.
Opens in 7-Zip, WinRAR and The Unarchiver; no built-in support on current systems

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.
