Aim for a target size or a quality level. • Convert — MOV to MP4, HEVC or H.264, ready to share anywhere. • Resize — lower the resolution while keeping the aspect ratio. • Trim & Split — keep just the part you want, or cut one clip into two. • Audio — save a video's sound to a file, or mute it completely. • Rotate, flip & crop — straighten and reframe in a tap. • GIF — turn any clip into a looping GIF. • Speed & Reverse — slow it down, speed it up, or play it backwards. • Batch — process many videos at once. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • 100% on-device. Nothing is ever uploaded. • No ads, no accounts, no nag screens. • Your metadata stays yours — keep or remove the date, location, and camera details.
