Quick answer: To convert GSM to AIFF, add the GSM file to the iHateFiles GSM to AIFF 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. GSM is a format most software has stopped opening. AIFF is not.
Should you convert GSM to AIFF?
A safe conversion: GSM and AIFF are both lossless, so this is a change of container rather than a change to the picture.
Nothing is discarded
GSM and AIFF are both lossless, so every pixel survives the move intact. Convert back and forth as often as you like; the image does not degrade.

What usually goes wrong
About the GSM. The quality ceiling is the codec, not the file. Converting to a higher bitrate cannot add back a frequency range that was never captured.
About the AIFF. AIFF and WAV are the same audio at the same size; only the byte order and metadata differ. Converting between them changes nothing you can hear.
How to convert GSM to AIFF
- Add your GSM file. It is read from your disk and stays there.
- Check the settings. The output format is already set to AIFF.
- Press convert and the AIFF file is saved back to your device.
Questions
How do I convert GSM to AIFF?
Open this page, add your GSM 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 GSM to AIFF 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 AIFF lose quality?
AIFF is lossless, so this step throws nothing away. If the original was already a lossy format, the damage it did cannot be undone, but nothing further is lost.
Can I convert several GSM files at once?
Yes. Add as many as you like and they are converted one after another, then offered as a single ZIP.
