Bonsai vs VidMint

Bonsai shrinks your videos to free up storage on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and even visionOS. Compress 4K videos to 1080p or 720p (and use high-efficiency H.265) to save device and iCloud space without deleting your memories. Hey there! I’m the solo developer of Bonsai, an app I created because I was tired of deleting precious memories just to free up space. Sound familiar? Instead of choosing which videos to sacrifice when your iPhone says “Storage Full,” you can use Bonsai to make those video files smaller without losing the moments inside them. What is Bonsai? Bonsai is a video compressor & downsizing tool that gives you more storage space by shrinking your videos. It’s like pruning a bonsai tree: we carefully trim file size while keeping all the beauty of the original. - Compress 4K or HD videos to 1080p or 720p in a few taps. (A 4K video can become ~75% smaller instantly!) - Reduce Bitrate of your videos using easy and understandable presets. - Control the output frame rates of videos to optimize your videos' sizes. - Choose HEVC (H.265) encoding for even more savings – up to 50% smaller files compared to standard H.264. - Filter and sort your videos by size, duration, or resolution to find the biggest space hogs fast. - Works with your iCloud and local videos – no matter where they live, Bonsai can compress them. - Get visual storage insights – see how much space all your videos take and how much you could save. - Keep a history of everything you’ve compressed, with exact bytes saved. (Satisfying!) - Sync your data privately via iCloud so Bonsai works seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and visionOS. Who is Bonsai for? Maybe you’ll see yourself here: - The Weekend Filmmaker: You love shooting in 4K for amazing quality. But after finishing your project, do you really need all those raw clips at full resolution? With Bonsai, you can keep your final cut in 4K but compress all the extra footage to 1080p. An 8GB weekend project can become ~2GB – that’s about 6GB saved without losing what made those shots great. - The Pet Parent: Your dog did something adorable… and you recorded it every time. Now ~200 pet videos are eating up 50GB of storage. They’re too precious to delete, but they’re clogging your phone. Bonsai can trim that ~50GB down to ~12GB. You keep every tail wag without paying for more iCloud storage. - The New Parent: All those firsts captured in glorious 4K add up quickly – you’ve got 100GB of baby videos by the first birthday. You want them all safe and synced, but you’re not ready to pay for the 2TB iCloud plan. Bonsai lets you keep every memory while drastically cutting the storage needed. - The Frugal Upgrader: The Apple Store is nudging you to buy the 256GB phone because your current device is nearly full. But wait – what if half of that space is taken up by videos you could compress? Bonsai can save you from a $200 upsell by instantly halving your video footprint. Get the cheaper phone, use Bonsai, and pocket the difference. Why pay for Bonsai? I offer a free trial (compress 10 videos on the house!) so you can see the magic for yourself. If Bonsai helps you, consider upgrading – it costs less than a cup of coffee a month, and it could save you hundreds on iCloud fees or new devices. Your support also helps an indie developer (hi, that’s me!) continue improving the app. I’m dedicated to making sure Bonsai genuinely solves your storage headaches. Ready to reclaim your storage?
