Free AZW3 to EPUB Converter: No Sign-up, Files Never Uploaded
This free AZW3 to EPUB converter runs entirely on your device. You do not need an account or a login, and your files are never uploaded, so they never leave your browser.
The book is unpacked into chapters, text and images, rebuilt, and packed again as EPUB.
Text, headings, links and images are kept; page layout is simplified. DRM-protected books cannot be converted. Text, headings, lists, tables and images are kept where the formats allow it, but complex layouts are simplified, so look over the result before you rely on it.

About the formats
About AZW3
Amazon’s Kindle Format 8, the successor of MOBI.
Files bought from Amazon are usually DRM protected and cannot be converted.
About EPUB
The open standard for e-books; text reflows to fit any screen size.
A ZIP of HTML files, maintained by the W3C (formerly the IDPF).
Read by almost every e-reader app, and by Kindle through Send to Kindle.
AZW3 vs EPUB
AZW3 does not support transparency, and EPUB does not.
AZW3 (KF8) files use the .azw3 extension and EPUB files use .epub, so the converted file gets a new name with the new extension.
Privacy: how it works
- Your AZW3 files stay on your device. The page reads each file with the browser's file API, converts it with code running in the tab, and hands the result back as a download. No upload happens, so there is no copy of your file on our servers to protect, delete or leak.
- There is nothing to sign up for and no login. The converter does not ask for an email address, and it does not need to know who you are to do its job.
- You can check the claim yourself: open your browser developer tools, watch the Network tab while a file converts, and you will see no request that carries your file.
Tips
- Check chapter breaks and images in the result before you copy it to your reader.
- DRM-protected books cannot be converted, so use files you own without protection.
- Pick the format your reader supports natively; EPUB is the safest choice for most apps.
- Keep the original file in case a cover or a table looks different after conversion.
- Convert a short test file first to see how your own layout survives.
- This page converts one way only; EPUB files cannot be turned back into AZW3 here.
Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no price, no trial, no credit card and no watermark added to your results. Ulkaa Tool does the conversion with your own device, so there is no server bill to pass on to you.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Your AZW3 files are read and converted inside your browser and are never sent to Ulkaa or to anyone else. The result is created on your device and you save it from there.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up and no login. Open the page, add your files and convert. An Ulkaa account is not needed for anything on this tool.
Is there a file size limit?
No limit is set by us. The real limit is your device: the conversion uses your own memory and processor, so very large files can be slow, and a very big batch may need to be split into smaller runs.
What is the difference between AZW3 and EPUB?
AZW3 does not support transparency, and EPUB does not. AZW3 (KF8) files use the .azw3 extension and EPUB files use .epub, so the converted file gets a new name with the new extension.
Can I convert many AZW3 files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as your device can handle. Each one is converted on its own and you can download them one by one or as a single ZIP.
Will anything be lost when I convert AZW3 to EPUB?
The content is kept, but complex layout is simplified. Text, headings, links and images are kept; page layout is simplified. DRM-protected books cannot be converted.
Can I convert EPUB back to AZW3?
Not on this page. This conversion goes one way. Open the EPUB page to see which formats it can be converted to.
Will the layout stay exactly the same?
Not always. Text, headings, lists, tables and images are kept, while complex layouts such as columns, floating objects and special effects are simplified.
