Compress Video

Reduce video file size for sharing, with no watermark.

Stays on your device. Cleared automatically after 5 minutes.

About this tool

Your video is compressed by your own device, so there is no upload wait and nobody else handles your footage. The trade-off is speed: this runs slower than a desktop app, and long videos can take a while, especially on phones. The video engine is a one-time download of about 30 MB the first time you use it.

How to use Compress Video

  1. Add a video file such as MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV.
  2. Choose a quality level and, if you like, a lower resolution.
  3. Select Compress video, keep the tab open until it finishes, then download the MP4.

Frequently asked questions

Why does compression take a while?

The work happens on your device instead of on a server. Short clips finish quickly, while longer videos can take several minutes.

What is the maximum video size?

The limit is 2 GB, set by what browsers can hold in memory for this kind of work. A large file may still fail on devices with little memory.

Is a watermark added?

No. The output never has a watermark, and there is no account or paid plan to remove one.
