Need a video to fit a file-size limit? Enter your target in MB and compress it entirely on your iPhone. Your video is never uploaded to a server. TARGET A FILE SIZE Choose the MB limit required by an email, form, or sharing destination. If the first result is too large, the app automatically refines it. If fixed settings cannot reach the target, the app reports that outcome instead of presenting an oversized file as successful. QUICK QUALITY PRESETS Choose High Quality, Balanced, Compact, or Smallest when you want a fast result without adjusting technical settings. CONTROL THE OUTPUT • H.264 or HEVC • MP4 or MOV • Resolution • Frame rate • Audio quality or no audio • Optional metadata preservation REVIEW BEFORE SAVING Play the compressed video, compare its size with the original, then save it to Photos or share it. Finished videos remain available in a removable on-device history. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Compression happens on your device. There are no accounts, ads, analytics, or tracking. Saving to Photos uses add-only permission. One purchase. No recurring subscription.
