Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert MOV to MP4?

MOV is Apple's proprietary video format. While it works great on Macs and iPhones, it often has playback issues on Windows PCs, Android phones, and many websites. MP4 is the universal video standard that works everywhere: all browsers, all devices, all social media platforms.

Will the video quality change?

With High quality and Original resolution, the visual difference is minimal. The converter uses H.264 encoding which is the same codec used by most streaming services. Lower quality settings reduce file size but may show some quality loss. Read our video format comparison for details on codec quality.

Can I convert iPhone videos?

Yes. Videos recorded on iPhones are saved as MOV files by default. This tool converts them to MP4 for easier sharing on social media, email, or messaging apps. If your iPhone video is too large, try our video compressor after converting.

Are my videos uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion runs in your browser using FFmpeg WebAssembly. Your videos never leave your device. No data is uploaded, stored, or tracked. This makes it the safest way to convert private or sensitive video recordings. See our security page for details.

What about MOV files with HEVC/H.265 codec?

Newer iPhones record in HEVC (H.265) format inside MOV containers. This tool handles most MOV files, but some HEVC-encoded files may need additional processing. If conversion fails, try our general video converter which supports all codecs.

Is this converter free?

Yes. This MOV to MP4 converter is completely free with no file limits, no signup, no watermarks. Convert as many videos as you need. You can also convert videos to GIF or extract audio from your videos.
