About the format

Videos are re-encoded to H.264 MP4, which plays everywhere. “Recommended” usually cuts phone videos by 50–80% with little visible change; lowering the resolution to 720p or 480p shrinks them even more.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the first conversion slower?

The video engine (about 30 MB) is downloaded once and then cached by your browser. Processing speed depends on your device, because everything happens locally.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no fixed limit, but browsers have memory limits. Files up to a few hundred MB work well on most computers.

Is it free?

Yes. All tools on ConvertNest are free to use, with no sign-up, limits on the number of files or watermarks.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, on your own device. Your files are never sent to our server, which also makes it fast and safe for private documents.
