How to convert WMA to OGG
Add your WMA audio files
Drop WMA 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.
OGG is already chosen
Press Convert. Open Options first if you want to change the defaults. The work happens in this tab.
Download
Save the OGG, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.

Free, without an account
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark. Add several files and download them together as a ZIP.
WMA to OGG: what to expect
WMA does not play on Apple devices, most phones or in browsers. Ogg is open and royalty-free, which game engines and open-source tools favour. WMA is at home in legacy Windows music libraries; OGG is the usual choice for royalty-free audio in games and on the web. Both formats are lossy, so the content is compressed a second time; start from the best copy you have.
The defaults suit most files. Under Options you can choose the bitrate and trim the start and end.
This pair uses the compatibility engine, ffmpeg built for the browser, because WMA is not handled 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. OGG is written at 160 kbps unless you choose another bitrate.
WMA vs OGG
OGG
Ogg audio
Ogg is an open container, most often holding Vorbis audio. Games, Linux software and Wikipedia use it because it is free of patents. Apple's players do not support it natively.
Opens in Chrome, Firefox, Android, VLC; Apple devices need extra software

Questions
Are my audio files uploaded anywhere?
No. The WMA to OGG conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
Does converting WMA to OGG reduce quality?
OGG is a lossy format, so a small amount of detail is traded for a smaller file. At the default setting the difference is hard to notice. You can choose the bitrate under Options.
Can I convert several WMA 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 WMA to OGG 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 WMA file, press Convert and save the OGG. There is nothing to install.
Is there a file size limit?
Yes. WMA to OGG 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.
