Video Compressor vs Video Compressor Free Storage

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.

Running out of iPhone storage? Video Compressor helps you reduce the size of videos in your Photos library and recover space—without uploading your photo or video content to SwiftLee servers. See your potential savings before changing anything. Choose the videos you want to compress, select the quality that works for you, and compare the real result before deciding what happens to the original. HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan your library to see how much storage your videos use and what you could save 2. Pick one or more videos, or start with smart collections such as Recent, Long, Large, or 4K 3. Choose High Quality, Balanced, or Max Saving 4. Compare your original and compressed video side by side 5. Keep the original, or delete it only after you explicitly confirm WHY VIDEO COMPRESSOR • On-device HEVC compression helps reduce video size while preserving strong visual quality • Estimated savings are shown before compression starts • Compress multiple selected videos in one session • Compare the actual result using your own video—not stock footage • No account, no advertising, and no media uploads to SwiftLee servers • iCloud originals are downloaded through Apple PhotoKit and processed one at a time with clear progress • Your originals remain untouched until you choose otherwise SIRI, SPOTLIGHT AND SHORTCUTS • Ask Siri how much storage you could save, or how much you have already saved, without opening the app • Start from Siri, Spotlight, or the Action Button to review your recent, large, long, or 4K videos for compression. The app opens on the review screen, so you stay in control • Find the actions in the Shortcuts app and add them to your own automations PRIVACY AND CONTROL Scanning, analysis, and compression happen on your iPhone. If a video is stored in iCloud, Apple PhotoKit downloads it for local processing. Video Compressor never deletes an original automatically.
