Convert MOV to MP4
Turn iPhone and Mac .mov files into MP4s that play everywhere — converted privately on your device.
MOV is Apple's QuickTime container — the default for iPhone videos and Mac screen recordings. It works fine inside the Apple ecosystem, but Windows apps, Android phones, PowerPoint, and many websites either refuse it or need extra codecs, especially when the video inside is HEVC. MP4 with H.264 is the one format that plays essentially everywhere.
This converter re-encodes your MOV to a standard MP4 (H.264 video, AAC audio) directly in your browser. There's no upload, no queue, and no watermark — and because iPhone videos can be large, skipping the upload step saves serious time.

Frequently asked questions
Why won't my MOV file play on Windows?
Recent iPhones record HEVC (H.265) video inside the MOV container, and Windows doesn't ship the HEVC decoder by default. Converting to MP4 with H.264 — what this tool does — makes the video playable without installing anything.
Does converting MOV to MP4 lose quality?
The video is re-encoded, but at the High setting (CRF 20) the difference is imperceptible for camera footage. Choose Highest if you plan to edit the file afterwards.
Is my video uploaded during conversion?
No — conversion runs entirely in your browser using a WebAssembly build of FFmpeg. Your file stays on your device from start to finish.
Can I convert other formats than MOV?
Yes, the tool accepts most video formats — MKV, WebM, AVI, and more — and converts them all to standard MP4.
