BVH to APK Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
BVH is the motion-capture skeleton format: a text hierarchy of joints with rotation channels and per-frame keyframes. It carries no mesh — only the skeleton and its animation. Repack an APK as ZIP to inspect its manifest and assets (not for reinstalling).
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

About the BVH format
BVH (Biovision Hierarchy) is motion capture in plain text: a joint hierarchy with rotation channels, followed by a MOTION block of per-frame values. It carries no mesh — which is exactly why it converts cleanly into glTF skeletons and animations.
The converted glTF carries the bone hierarchy and the animation clip, so a mocap take drops straight into three.js, Unity or Blender and can be retargeted onto any character.
+Strengths
- ✓Human-readable mocap standard
- ✓Clean glTF skeleton mapping
- ✓Decades of free mocap libraries
!Limitations
- −No mesh — needs retargeting to a body
- −Euler rotation gimbal quirks
- −Scale conventions vary per studio
About the APK format
An APK is Android’s install package: a ZIP holding AndroidManifest.xml, compiled DEX bytecode, native libraries and assets. Unpacking one is the standard first step of security review, compatibility checks and asset recovery.
One honest limit: unpacking is inspection, not installation — a repacked ZIP cannot be installed back onto a phone, and the page says so.
+Strengths
- ✓Everything an Android app ships
- ✓ZIP-based, easy to unpack
- ✓Manifest readable as XML
!Limitations
- −DEX bytecode is not human source
- −Repack cannot reinstall
Why convert BVH to APK?
There is a concrete reason this conversion exists: No mesh — needs retargeting to a body APK sidesteps that — Everything an Android app ships If that is your situation, the tool above settles it in seconds, entirely on your device.
Frequently asked questions
Is this BVH to APK converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Will my model look the same as a GLB?
Geometry, hierarchy and standard materials convert faithfully. Note that Draco-compressed GLB files and exotic extensions are not supported — export those as plain GLB from your original tool first.
Does the scale or orientation of the model change?
Vertex data is converted as-is. Formats without a unit system (like STL) are interpreted as millimeters by most 3D-printing tools — scale before converting if your model uses different units.
Will my APK model keep its colors and textures?
Only if APK can store them. Geometry converts faithfully; appearance data survives only when the target format has a place to put it. For full materials, GLB is usually the right target.
