FAQ

Common questions

How do I convert a video to MP4 for free?

Drop the video on this page, select MP4 (H.264) as the format, pick a resolution and press Convert. The file is converted on your own device, so there is no upload, no watermark and no sign-up.

Is the video converter really private?

Yes. Your video is processed locally by your browser and is never uploaded. Only the converter engine itself is downloaded the first time, and your browser keeps it for later visits.

How can I make a video file smaller?

Choose MP4, lower the resolution to 720p or 480p and set quality to Balanced or Small. Dropping from 4K or 1080p to 720p usually cuts the file size by more than half.

Why is video conversion slower than audio conversion?

Video has far more data to process, and the browser does the work on your device instead of a powerful server. Short clips take seconds, while long 1080p videos can take several minutes. Keep the tab open while it runs.

Can I convert a video to a GIF?

Yes. Choose GIF as the format. GIFs are large and have no sound, so use it for short clips of a few seconds and a smaller resolution.

What is the maximum video size I can convert?

The limit is your device memory. Files up to about 500 MB convert reliably on most computers. Very large files may fail on phones, so try a shorter clip or a lower resolution there.

How do I convert MKV or AVI to MP4?

Drop the MKV or AVI file here, choose MP4 and press Convert. MP4 with H.264 plays on almost every phone, TV and website.

What is the best format for sharing a video online?

MP4 (H.264 and AAC) is the safest choice for email, messaging apps and social networks. Use WebM for websites and GIF only for very short silent loops.
