Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server?+

No. Conversion happens entirely inside your browser and your file is never sent anywhere — personal videos stay private.

Does WebM play in Safari?+

Recent Safari versions play WebM, but older iOS devices can be limited. If compatibility is the priority, stick with MP4.

Is there a file size limit?+

No server limits, but processing uses browser memory, so it's optimized for short clips (tens to a few hundred MB). Files over 300MB show a warning.

Is it really free?+

Yes. No sign-up, no payment, no conversion limits and no watermark.

Can I pick a different output format?+

Yes — on the converter you can switch the output between MP4, WebM, MOV, MKV, AVI and GIF.

Guide

Why convert MP4 to WEBM?

WEBM (WebM) is Google's open video format built for the web: smaller files at the same quality for page embeds, native support in every modern browser, and no licensing baggage.

It's the go-to when you want background or demo videos on a website to load light.

What happens to quality and size?

Your video is re-encoded with the VP8 codec, tuned to keep web-playback quality while trimming size.

Re-encoding takes time proportional to clip length — expect tens of seconds for short clips.
