About FLAC Format
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an open-source audio format that compresses audio without losing any quality. Unlike MP3, which discards data to shrink files, FLAC preserves every bit of the original recording while reducing file sizes by 50–60% compared to WAV. It is widely supported by audiophile music players, streaming services, and modern devices.
Choose FLAC when you want lossless quality without the massive file sizes of WAV. It is the best format for building a high-fidelity music library.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is FLAC better than MP3?
Yes, FLAC is lossless — it preserves 100% of the original audio quality. MP3 discards some audio data during compression. However, the difference is most noticeable on high-quality audio equipment. For casual listening, MP3 at 320kbps is often sufficient.
Can iPhones play FLAC files?
Yes, iPhones running iOS 11 or later can play FLAC files natively through the Files app. Many third-party music players for iOS also support FLAC playback.
How much smaller is FLAC compared to WAV?
FLAC files are typically 50–60% smaller than equivalent WAV files. A 40 MB WAV track might compress to 16–20 MB as FLAC with zero quality loss.
