Get a better result
- Best for
- iPhone, camera, or QuickTime footage that needs a broadly accepted upload and playback format without depending on the original MOV container.
- Input → output
- A MOV source becomes a fast-start H.264/yuv420p MP4 with 128 kbps AAC audio. Both picture and sound are re-encoded into the delivery file.
- Quality tip
- Keep the MOV original until colour, orientation, frame cadence, and audio sync have been checked on the target platform.
- Know before running
- This is not metadata-only wrapping. Re-encoding can change quality, and alternate audio, timecode, alpha, professional camera metadata, or other secondary MOV streams are not explicitly retained.
- Next step
- Compress video if the compatible MP4 is still too large to send or upload.

Frequently asked questions
- Is MOV to MP4 free? Is there a watermark?
- Yes — MOV to MP4 is free to use with no sign-up or watermark. Very large files can still be limited by your browser's available memory and processing resources.
- Do my files get uploaded to a server?
- No. MOV to MP4 runs entirely in your browser with WebAssembly, so your MOV (QuickTime) file never leaves your device and nothing is stored or seen by us.
- What can I put in, and what do I get out?
- MOV to MP4 accepts MOV (QuickTime) and gives you back a MP4 file. Actual codec support depends on what the bundled engine or browser decoder can read.
- Will I lose quality converting to MP4?
- The H.264 conversion is lossy rather than a reversible container change. Keep the source and compare motion, fine text, colour, and audio sync in the result.
