MOV to MP4 Converter | Convert iPhone Video
Convert MOV video files to MP4 for wider playback support, easier uploads, and better compatibility with browsers, social platforms, and messaging apps.
Why Convert MOV to MP4
MOV files are common on iPhone, iPad, and macOS, but MP4 is accepted more widely by browsers, Android devices, social platforms, video players, and upload forms.
File Size and Device Limits
Browser video conversion can be memory-heavy. Use shorter clips, respect the mobile and desktop size limits shown on the page, and keep the original file until the MP4 plays correctly.
Check Playback After Download
Open the converted MP4 and check video duration, audio sync, playback quality, and upload compatibility before deleting the original MOV file or sending the video.
About This Tool

When to Use It
Use this when uploading a video recorded on an iPhone or Mac and the platform requires MP4, when sharing a video with someone on Windows who cannot play MOV files, or before uploading to YouTube, Instagram, or similar services.
How to Use

- Choose output quality settings if available.
- Click Convert to produce the MP4 file.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the video quality be affected by the conversion?
MOV to MP4 conversion with the same codec and settings produces negligible quality difference. Re-encoding with lower bitrate settings will reduce quality.
Why is my MOV file so large compared to MP4?
MOV files often use Apple ProRes or other high-quality codecs that produce large files. Converting to MP4 with H.264 or H.265 compression produces a much smaller file.
Does it preserve the audio track?
Yes. The audio track is included in the converted MP4 file.
