formatdrop

FormatDrop is a free online file converter for images, video, audio, and documents. Drop a file into the converter, choose a source-to-target format pair, and convert in your browser—typically in 1–3 seconds.

The conversion runs locally in your browser tab, so your files never need to be uploaded or sent to a server. You can also paste files from your clipboard, and conversion works across modern browsers like Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge.

With 200+ format pairs, FormatDrop covers common workflows such as HEIC → PNG, MP4 → GIF, and DOCX → PDF, plus many additional image, audio, video, and document conversions. Download a single result or convert multiple files as a ZIP, keeping the originals untouched.

Do I need to upload files or create an account to use FormatDrop?

No. FormatDrop processes files directly in your browser and doesn’t require an account.

What kinds of files can I convert?

You can convert images, video, audio, and documents, with format pairs spanning formats like HEIC, MP4, MP3, PDF, and DOCX.

How do I start a conversion?

Pick a conversion pair, then drag and drop a file (or click to choose one / paste from your clipboard). The converted file can be downloaded after processing.

How long does conversion take?

Typical conversions complete in about 1–3 seconds, depending on the file type and size.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes. You can download one file or a ZIP of many converted results.

Are there any server queues or waiting for processing?

No waiting on a server is needed since everything is processed in-browser rather than queued remotely.
