Got Old MMF Ringtones?

MMF files were the standard ringtone format for older mobile phones, particularly Samsung and Sony Ericsson devices from the early 2000s. These files contain synthesized audio that many people still want to use but can't play on modern smartphones.

Converting MMF to AAC solves this problem. AAC is the audio format used by iPhones and most Android devices for ringtones and music. Once converted, your classic ringtones work everywhere.

How to Convert MMF to AAC

  1. Upload your MMF file - Drag and drop or tap to select from your device
  2. Confirm AAC output - AAC is selected as the target format
  3. Download your audio - Your converted file is ready for any modern device

The entire process happens in your browser. No software to install, no account required.

Why Convert to AAC?

AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) offers significant advantages over the older MMF format:

  • Universal compatibility - Works on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, and all modern devices
  • Better sound quality - AAC uses advanced compression that sounds better than MMF's synthesized audio
  • Native ringtone support - iPhones and Android devices recognize AAC for ringtones without extra apps
  • Smaller file sizes - AAC compresses efficiently while maintaining audio clarity

In our testing, converted AAC files play instantly on devices that refused to recognize the original MMF format.

Common Use Cases

Restoring Classic Ringtones

Have a favorite ringtone from your old Samsung phone? Convert it to AAC and use it on your current smartphone. Many people keep backups of ringtones they bought or created years ago.

Archiving Old Mobile Audio

If you have MMF files from old phones or memory cards, converting to AAC ensures you can play them on any modern device. AAC files will remain compatible for years to come.

Cross-Platform Sharing

Need to share an MMF audio file with someone? Convert to AAC first. Almost no one has software that plays MMF anymore, but AAC plays everywhere.

Alternative Formats

Depending on your needs, other output formats may work better:

  • MMF to MP3 - Choose MP3 if you need maximum compatibility with older devices and car stereos
  • MMF to M4A - M4A is essentially AAC in an Apple container, ideal for iTunes and Apple Music

For most modern smartphones, AAC is the best choice. It's the native format for both iOS and Android audio.

Works on Any Device

Our converter runs entirely in your browser:

  • Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebook
  • iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets
  • Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge

No downloads, no plugins, no registration. Just upload, convert, and download.

Pro Tip

If you're converting MMF ringtones for iPhone, the AAC file works directly but needs a .m4r extension to be recognized as a ringtone. Rename the file after conversion or use our M4R output option.

Common Mistake

Trying to play MMF files directly on smartphones and assuming the file is corrupted when it won't open. The file is fine - modern devices simply don't support the format. Converting to AAC solves this.

Best For

Recovering ringtones from old feature phones that you want to use on your current smartphone. Perfect for preserving that nostalgic ringtone from your first mobile phone.

Not Recommended

If your original audio is already in a modern format like MP3 or WAV, there's no need to convert through MMF. Only use this converter when you actually have MMF source files.
