- Convert and download.
- Copy it to your phone or share it.
Phone-friendly settings
Phone screens are small, so 4K or 1080p is often wasted. This preset scales videos to at most 1280 px on the long side and uses H.264 Main profile, which even older phones play smoothly. A 1080p video typically shrinks to half its size or less.
Good to know
Output is MP4 with H.264 video (yuv420p, the colour format every player supports), AAC stereo at 48 kHz, and the index moved to the start of the file so playback and uploads begin immediately.
Supported files
MP4, MOV, MKV, WEBM, AVI, WMV, FLV, M4V, 3GP, 3G2, MPEG, MPG, TS, MTS, M2TS, VOB, OGV, MXF, ASF, DIVX, F4V, SWF, DV, MOD, TOD, WTV, RM and RMVB video, with H.264, HEVC, VP8, VP9, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, WMV, Theora and other codecs. AV1 videos cannot be read in the browser yet. Files up to 1 GB each.
Frequently asked questions
Will the video look worse?
On a phone screen, 720p looks almost identical to 1080p. On a big TV the difference is more visible.
Do I have to pay or sign up to use the Mobile Video Converter?
No. There is no account, no payment and no watermark. The only limit is 1 GB per file, set by what browsers can handle.
Do you keep a copy of my files?
We never receive them. All processing happens on your device, so there is nothing for us to store or delete.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. Open the page in your phone's browser and choose a file. Phones have less memory than computers, so very large files are better converted on a laptop or desktop.
