This is fake

Not handbrake the real one is made in developed in France not China. These people have stolen their icon. and the first thing they do is to charge. I hope Apple looks into it.

BEWARE

This app is misleading and intentionally confusing.

The name “HandBrake – Video Compressor” makes it sound like the well-known free, open-source HandBrake software. It is NOT the same product. The real HandBrake is completely free and does not charge subscriptions. This app charges $4.99 per week for something people reasonably assume is free.

Using the HandBrake name creates a false sense of legitimacy. There is no clear distinction that this is an unrelated third-party app trying to capitalize on the reputation of an established free tool.

If you’re looking for the real HandBrake, go to handbrake.fr on desktop. This app is not it.

Very disappointing and misleading branding.

Excellent experience

Very simple to use, compressed my videos to 40% of original storage side. A little slow of a process on larger files but it’s worth it to preserve such great video quality

Simple and works well

I've been using this app to shrink some big videos on my phone, and it works really well. The file size drops a lot while the picture still stays clear. It’s quick, easy to use, and really helps free up storage without any hassle.

Response from developer

Thank you for your support! We’re happy to hear that you’re satisfied with the compression results and overall user experience. We’ll continue improving the app to help you manage your videos and storage more easily.

Very limited functionality

I can only upload from my camera roll and spent an hour trying to move a Google Drive file to my camera roll with no luck. Absolutely useless to me.
