How to use this tool

  1. Choose a MOV file from your iPhone, Mac, or camera export.
  2. Use 720p or 480p when the file needs to shrink aggressively.
  3. Compress to MP4 and download the smaller version.

Why MOV files are large

MOV videos from phones and cameras often preserve high bitrate, high resolution, and audio tracks. Reducing resolution and bitrate can make them easier to share.

Compress MOV to MP4

MP4 is the default output because it is widely accepted by chat apps, upload forms, and most browsers.

Best settings for iPhone videos

Start with 720p, 30 fps, and lower audio bitrate. For very small targets like 10MB, trim the clip or remove audio.

Browser-based compression and privacy

The video file is handled in your browser session. The compression engine runs locally, so the file is not uploaded to a server and no watermark is added.

Supported formats

The first version accepts MP4, MOV, and WebM files up to 500MB. Files from 200MB to 500MB can be processed, but the page warns that browser memory and processing time may be a limit.
