iLoveMP4 is an easy-to-use video compressor and editor for iPhone. Make large videos easier to share, keep only the clips you need, fix orientation, resize for a new destination, change the pace, or manage a video’s audio. When your edit is complete, preview the result, save it to Photos or Files, or share it using the apps you already use. ONE SIMPLE PLACE FOR ESSENTIAL VIDEO TOOLS Videos are often too large to send, include sections you do not need, have the wrong orientation, or need a quick adjustment before you share them. iLoveMP4 brings everyday video tools together in one clear workflow. Select a video from Photos or Files, choose a tool, pick your settings, preview the finished file, and export it when it looks right. COMPRESS VIDEO AND SAVE SPACE Reduce file size before sending a video or storing another copy. Choose the balance that suits your needs: • Good — creates the smallest file for quick sharing • Better — a balanced option for most videos • Best — keeps more detail in a larger file Compressed videos are exported as MP4, giving you a straightforward way to prepare a file for sharing or saving. TRIM, REMOVE, AND SPLIT VIDEO CLIPS Keep the part of a recording that matters most. The Trim & Split tool includes a visual timeline with video frames, selectable handles, timing labels, and a preview before you apply the edit. Use it to: • Trim a video down to the exact range you want • Remove an unwanted section from the middle of a recording • Split a video at a chosen point • Keep the part before the split • Keep the part after the split • Preview the selected moment before exporting RESIZE FOR EVERY DESTINATION Choose an output size that works for your needs. Resize videos to: • 1080p for Full HD sharing • 720p for a balanced option on most screens • 480p for a smaller file that is easier to send ROTATE A VIDEO THE RIGHT WAY Fix a sideways or upside-down recording without starting over. Choose: • 90° clockwise • 180° • 90° counterclockwise CHANGE VIDEO SPEED Set the pace of your video with simple speed choices: • 0.5× slower • 1× original speed • 1.5× faster • 2× faster Slow down an important moment, keep the original pace, or make a longer video quicker to watch. REMOVE OR EXTRACT AUDIO Control the sound in your videos with two useful audio tools: • Remove audio to create a silent video while keeping the original picture • Extract audio to create an audio-only file from a video Mute a recording before sharing it, or keep the soundtrack, speech, music, or other audio without the video. PREVIEW, SAVE, AND SHARE YOUR RESULT Every finished file opens in a dedicated preview screen. Review the output before you export, then: • Share your finished file • Save a finished video to Photos • Save a file to the Files app PICK VIDEOS YOUR WAY Select a video from your photo library or from the Files app. You can also set your preferred default source: • Ask Every Time • Photos • Files PERSONALIZE YOUR WORKFLOW Make the app feel more like your own.
