iPhone videos that play everywhere
iPhones and Macs save video as MOV. Windows players, Android phones, many websites and upload forms prefer MP4. When a MOV already contains H.264 video, as with the Most Compatible camera setting, the converter simply moves it into an MP4 container: the result looks exactly the same and is ready in seconds, even for long recordings.
By default iPhones record in HEVC (H.265), the High Efficiency setting. Such videos are re-encoded to H.264 so that the MP4 plays on every device; this takes longer and uses your device's hardware encoder.
Private and unlimited
Family videos and work recordings stay on your computer, because nothing is uploaded. Drop several files at once and download them together as a ZIP.
