Guides

Getting started with conversion

Convert a file in a few straightforward steps.

Choose or drop one or more files, select an available target format for each file, then start the conversion. When processing finishes, your browser downloads the result or a ZIP for a batch.

Formats and browser compatibility

Understand which conversions are available on your device.

Loconva supports images, documents, audio, video, structured data, archives, fonts, and ebooks. Some advanced conversions depend on browser features; use a current Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge release.

File-size and batch limits

Know the browser limits before selecting files.

Free users can process files up to 1 GB and select five files per batch. Pro raises the browser file limit to 2 GB and removes the five-file batch cap, subject to the memory available on the device.

Local processing, privacy, and offline mode

Learn how Loconva keeps browser conversions private.

Supported browser conversions run locally, so source files are not uploaded to Loconva. Offline mode is optional and stores application assets on the device after you enable it; cloud export sends only the result you choose.

Accounts and data export

Manage account details and retrieve your stored data.

An account provides subscription, token, API-key, and history controls. Use Export my data on the account page to download your current profile data, and use the deletion controls if you want to remove the account permanently.

Plans, subscriptions, and token packs

Choose between browser features and API usage.

Free and Pro plans apply to browser conversion features. API token packs fund server-side API conversions. Stripe hosts checkout and billing management; access the customer portal from your account when a subscription is active.

API keys and security

Create and protect credentials for API access.

Create a labeled API key from the account page and save it immediately because the full key is shown only once. Never place keys in public code, browser scripts, screenshots, or shared logs; delete a key promptly if it may be exposed.

Google Drive and Dropbox export

Send a completed result to an optional cloud provider.

After conversion, choose Google Drive or Dropbox and authorize the provider when prompted. Only the converted result is sent. If export is unavailable, download the file normally and upload it to the provider yourself.

Conversion troubleshooting

Recover from unsupported, failed, or interrupted conversions.

Confirm the source extension is supported, choose a listed target, keep the tab open, and ensure the device has enough free memory. Retry once after refreshing. For large media files, close other tabs or try a desktop device.

Contact and escalation

Send support the details needed to investigate.

If the guides do not resolve the issue, include the source and target formats, browser and operating-system versions, approximate file size, and the exact error message. Do not attach private source files unless support explicitly requests them.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions people ask most often.

Are my files uploaded to Loconva?

Supported browser conversions run on your device and do not upload source files to Loconva. Optional cloud export sends the completed result only to the provider you select.

What are the file and batch limits?

Free users can process files up to 1 GB and five files per batch. Pro supports files up to the 2 GB browser limit and removes the five-file batch cap.

Why is a target format missing?

Loconva shows only targets supported for the detected source format. Verify the extension and consult the formats browser on the home page.

Do I need an account to convert files?

No. The free local converter works without registration. Accounts are needed for paid plans, API keys, token management, and optional history.

Where are payment details processed?

Stripe hosts checkout and billing management. Loconva does not receive or store the complete card number entered on Stripe Checkout.

Can I view an API key again later?

No. The complete key is displayed once when created. If it is lost, delete its list entry and create a replacement.

What if cloud export is not configured?

Download the converted file to your device, then upload it through Google Drive or Dropbox directly. Local conversion remains available.

What should I do when a conversion fails?

Use Retry once, then refresh the page and select the file again. Check browser compatibility and available memory, especially for large media files.
