Part 3: How to Convert Audio Formats?

Through the above methods, we can obtain the audio files for free. But the audio formats are sometimes not supported by Apple if we get the audio files from the other ways.

Since the Apple devices support limited audio formats (i.e. FLAC, Apple Lossless and M4A), we should convert to the suitable format. Otherwise, music cannot be played on iPhone. Renee Audio Tools can also help you convert formats.

Renee Audio Tools can not only convert the audio formats but also improve the audio files. Users can cut, record sounds and complete the other audio editing.

a. Install and launch Renee Audio Tools.
