VideoCompressor vs Video Compressor

VideoCompressor makes it effortless to reduce video file sizes without sacrificing visual quality. Whether you're freeing up storage, preparing clips for social media, or sending large files over messaging apps — VideoCompressor gives you the control you need with a beautiful, intuitive interface. ◆ POWERFUL COMPRESSION ENGINE • Three compression backends — AVFoundation, AVAssetWriter, and FFmpeg — automatically selected for the best results • Hardware-accelerated encoding for blazing-fast compression • H.264, H.265/HEVC, Apple ProRes, and more output formats • Fine-grained bitrate control from 500 Kbps to 100 Mbps ◆ FULL CONTROL OVER EVERY DETAIL • Choose from Low, Medium, High, or Custom quality presets • Adjust resolution from 360p all the way up to 8K • Set exact frame rates: 24, 25, 30, 50, 60, 120, or 240 fps • Control audio bitrate or pass through audio without re-encoding • Output to MP4, MOV, M4V, or 3GP containers ◆ BATCH COMPRESSION • Select multiple videos and compress them all at once • Per-batch quality, resolution, and format settings • Track progress for the entire batch in real time ◆ BUILT-IN CAMERA • Record videos directly in the app • Switch between 720p, 1080p, and 4K recording quality • Tap-to-focus with animated focus indicator • Front/rear camera switching and torch/flash toggle ◆ SMART & ORGANIZED • Compression history with original vs. compressed size comparison • Compression ratio and duration tracking • Swipe-to-delete history entries ◆ DESIGNED FOR YOU • Clean, modern interface with dark mode support • Real-time compression progress with percentage and time estimates • Share compressed videos instantly when finished • Option to keep or remove original videos after compression PRIVACY VideoCompressor processes all videos locally on your device. No data is uploaded to any server. Camera and photo library permissions are used solely for accessing and recording videos.

Your videos are eating your storage. Deleting them hurts, and cloud plans add up — LeanVid opens a third way. It compresses videos by lowering only the bitrate while preserving quality (resolution, frame rate, color, HDR, and every track), then safely replaces the originals — but only after each result passes an integrity check. ■ MADE FOR YOU IF • You keep seeing "iPhone Storage Almost Full" • You can't bring yourself to delete family or travel videos • You'd rather not add another monthly fee just for more cloud storage ■ COMPRESSION THAT PROTECTS QUALITY • Lowers only the bitrate — resolution and frame rate stay untouched • Best-effort preservation of HDR (HDR10, HLG, Dolby Vision compatible) and color information • Audio, subtitle, and metadata tracks are copied as-is (only audio that MP4 can't hold is converted to AAC) • Compare before and after with side-by-side, top-bottom, or slider playback — see for yourself, then decide • Detailed spec comparison: codec, bitrate, HDR, frame rate, and more ■ VIDEOS OUTSIDE YOUR PHOTO LIBRARY, TOO • Pick videos from the Files app (On My iPhone, iCloud Drive) and compress them • Files your iPhone can't play are handled by the built-in converter — MKV, WebM, AVI, WMV, FLV, TS, MPG and VOB files with VP9, AV1, VP8, MPEG-1/2/4, DivX, Xvid, WMV or Motion JPEG video • Their audio (AAC, MP3, AC-3, Opus, Vorbis, WMA, PCM) is converted along with the video; subtitle tracks and iPhone spatial audio are not carried over • Replace the original file or save the result to your photo library ■ SAFEGUARDS FOR YOUR ORIGINALS • Replacement proceeds only after the result passes integrity verification • Deleting originals goes through the iOS system confirmation, and they stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days • A recovery journal safely rolls back interrupted work if the app quits mid-task • Compression history lets you re-compare or export anytime ■ SAVINGS THAT REPEAT EVERY MONTH • A lighter library lowers your cloud usage too • Once usage drops below a plan tier, downgrading one step saves you money automatically every month • Not a one-time cleanup — savings that show up on every bill ■ NO WAITING AROUND • Compression continues in the background (iOS 26+ devices; earlier versions pause and auto-resume) • Track progress from the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island with Live Activities • Sort by size to start with the videos that free up the most space • Videos stored in iCloud are downloaded and processed automatically ■ PRIVACY • Everything happens on your device — no data about your videos is ever collected or transmitted • No contradiction: an app that cuts your cloud fees never uploads your videos to a cloud of its own • No account required About the permission it asks for LeanVid needs access to your photo library to find compressible videos and to replace originals after verification. Originals are deleted only with your confirmation. Videos from the Files app need no extra permission — only the files you pick are accessed.
