Quick answer: To convert DIVX to 3GP, add the DIVX file to the iHateFiles DIVX to 3GP converter and press Convert. The conversion runs in your browser, so the file is never uploaded, and it is free with no sign-up, watermark or size limit. DIVX is a format most software has stopped opening. 3GP is not.
Should you convert DIVX to 3GP?
Yes. DIVX is a format most current software no longer opens, so converting it is the reliable way to keep watching it. 3GP is a reasonable target; MP4 is the safest.
The picture is re-encoded
A DIVX usually holds DivX MPEG-4 Part 2 video with MP3 or AC3 sound. This writes H.264 Baseline video with AAC sound at 96 kbps into the 3GP. Both sides are compressed with loss, so this is a second generation: leave the quality at its default or higher, because the encoder is working from DIVX artefacts rather than the original.
Expect a smaller 3GP
H.264 Baseline video is a much more efficient codec than what a DIVX holds, so at the same visual quality the 3GP is usually a third to a half of the size.
Where the 3GP will play
3GP plays on old feature phones, VLC, and most modern players.

What usually goes wrong
About the DIVX. DivX, XviD and MPEG-4 Part 2 are near enough the same thing under different names, and all three convert the same way.
About the 3GP. Converting a 3GP does not improve it. The detail was never recorded, and upscaling only makes the file bigger.
How to convert DIVX to 3GP
- Add your DIVX file. It is read from your disk and stays there.
- Check the settings. The output format is already set to 3GP.
- Press convert and the 3GP file is saved back to your device.
Questions
How do I convert DIVX to 3GP?
Open this page, add your DIVX file, and press convert. The file is decoded and re-encoded by your own browser and saved back to your device. Nothing is uploaded.
Is this DIVX to 3GP converter free?
Yes, completely. There is no account, no sign-in, no watermark and no daily limit, because there is no server doing the work. Your own device does it.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. There is no upload endpoint. The conversion runs inside this browser tab, so your file never leaves your device. You can open your browser's network panel and watch: nothing carrying your file is sent.
Is there a file size limit?
No fixed limit. Because the work happens on your machine there is no server quota. The only ceiling is your own device's memory, which for video means very large files may be slow.
Will converting to 3GP lose quality?
3GP is a lossy format, so some detail is discarded. The quality control on this page decides how much. The default is set high enough that most people cannot see the difference.
Can I convert several DIVX files at once?
Yes. Add as many as you like and they are converted one after another, then offered as a single ZIP.
