Accepts QuickTime (.mov) — including iPhone HEVC and H.264 footage
Your MP4 is ready now. It keeps the original HEVC (H.265) video, so no quality is lost.
It plays in this browser, on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and on most Windows 10 and 11 PCs. Older PCs, some TVs and some video editors need H.264.
This browser can't play HEVC, so the output preview below may stay black. If you'll watch it on this device or send it to someone with an older PC, convert it to H.264.
Conversion runs on your computer — not on someone else's server. Zero uploads.
If your MOV file already contains H.264 video, we just rewrap it into an MP4 container — no re-encoding, no quality loss, near-instant.
iPhone HEVC footage is ready in seconds as an MP4 that keeps its HEVC video. Need it to play everywhere? Convert it to H.264 at a visually lossless CRF 18.
CloudConvert caps free users at 10 conversions/day. Zamzar limits at 50 MB. VEED watermarks. We don't do any of that.
Drop a 4 GB drone clip if you want. The only limit is your device's available memory — there's no upload step to choke on.
The engine downloads once, then runs forever. Turn off Wi-Fi to verify — conversion keeps working.

Yes. iPhone 7 and later record video as HEVC (H.265) inside a .mov container. The converter has an MP4 ready in seconds that keeps the original HEVC video, with no quality loss; it plays on iPhone, iPad, Mac and most Windows 10 and 11 PCs. If it needs to play everywhere, older PCs and TVs included, choose Convert to H.264, which takes longer.
If your source already contains H.264 (older iPhones, most QuickTime recordings), conversion is a fast remux — usually under a second. HEVC is just as fast if you keep it as HEVC. Converting to H.264 re-encodes every frame and is much slower: on a recent Mac, a minute of 1080p HEVC takes about 4 minutes. 4K footage and older computers take longer.
No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser. Disconnect from Wi-Fi after the page loads to verify — the converter keeps working.
Neither. Plain .mp4 output. No backend means no caps — the only limit is your device's available memory.
If the source is H.264, or HEVC you choose to keep as HEVC, we remux (copy the video stream into MP4 without re-encoding) — 100% lossless. When we convert to H.264, we use CRF 18 by default, which is visually lossless for nearly all viewers.
That's how you know nothing leaves your computer.
CloudConvert, Zamzar, FreeConvert, VEED — they all send your video to a server. We don't. Conversion runs on your CPU, in your browser, via the same ffmpeg engine VLC and YouTube use.
iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, or any modern browser — same tool, same code, same privacy.
