Share an M4A as a link no account needed

Drop an M4A from Voice Memos, GarageBand, or an iTunes export and get a URL that plays anywhere. No conversion to MP3 first.

Drop your file here

Anyone with the link · images, audio, video, docs, text & data, or .zip

By uploading, you agree to our Terms and Data Processing Terms and confirm you have the right to share this content.

How it works

  1. Drop the M4A

    Drag in the file from Voice Memos, a recorder app, or an iTunes export. AAC audio inside an .m4a container is what this handles.

  2. We publish a player

    The audio is validated and served at its own short URL with a play button, so it starts in the browser rather than downloading.

  3. Send the link

    Copy the URL or scan the QR code. It plays on Windows, Android, and anything else with a browser.

Why M4A files won't open for other people

Frequently asked questions

how do i open an m4a file
Upload it here and open the link. Every modern browser decodes AAC audio in an .m4a container, so the person you send it to needs no media player and no converter.
do i have to convert m4a to mp3 first
No. Converting re-encodes lossy audio into lossy audio and costs quality for nothing. Upload the M4A exactly as it is and the link plays it directly.
why can't windows play the m4a i sent
Older Windows Media Player builds ship without an AAC decoder, so the file opens to an error. A link sidesteps that entirely, because the browser decodes the audio instead of the desktop player.
how long does the link last
Anonymous links last 48 hours. Sign in free and they keep for 30 days, with a 20 MB per-file cap. A paid plan raises that up to 1 GB.
can i password-protect the audio
Yes, on a paid plan. Lock the page behind a password so only the people you give it to can listen. Every link is unlisted and noindexed on every plan.
