Format description
3GP is a multimedia format which can contain both video and audio. Designed by the Third Generation Partnership Project, it is intended for mobile devices with 3G connectivity, though it can also be played on 2G and 4G devices. Note that this format is outdated and superseded by 3G2, which takes up less space and consumes less bandwidth.Common questions about 3GPP conversions
How to open a 3GPP file?
If you don't know how to view a 3GPP file, you can convert it to another format you already recognize. You can use MConverter for the conversion.
Can I convert 3GPP files in bulk?
Yes, MConverter supports batch converting of multiple 3GPP files at once. You can even drag and drop folders containing 3GPPs.
Pasting 3GPP files and folders copied in the clipboard also works: use Ctrl+V.

Can I convert a 3GPP file, if its size is 10 GB?
Yes, with MConverter Max you can convert big 3GPPs, up to 10 gigabytes each.
The free version lets you convert files up to 100 MB. If you need to convert 3GPP files over 100 megabytes, try MConverter Max. If your files aren’t over 1 GB, then you can use MConverter Plus instead, as it’s cheaper.

Is converting 3GPPs safe with MConverter?
For cloud-based conversions, MConverter encrypts your 3GPP files using the latest technologies, such as TLS 1.3 and HSTS. They are transmitted securely to our cloud service provider’s EU-based data center, which holds internationally recognized ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications. There, each conversion is processed in a separate, isolated environment. This technique further reduces the risk of a malicious file impacting other conversions.
Four hours after the conversion is complete, your files are automatically deleted from MConverter’s systems. You can also permanently delete your 3GPPs and other converted files immediately after finishing the conversion with the trash icon.
When converting on-device, your files never leave your device. MConverter processes them locally. Note: on-device conversions are not yet available for some hardware-intensive formats.
For both cloud and on-device conversions, your files are never scanned or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

How long does it take to convert 3GPP?
For most videos, the wait could be a few minutes or less. However, MConverter also supports converting larger videos, meaning that it could take a while (up to over an hour, for example).
