MOV / HEVC to MP4 · Windows

Turn phone videos into
MP4 that plays anywhere

Someone couldn't open the video you sent. Your editor or upload site won't accept it. Drop the .MOV / HEVC file in, press Convert, and you get a standard MP4 (H.264 / AAC).
Conversion runs entirely on your PC. Your videos are never uploaded.

Problems

Trouble with .MOV files?

iPhones and other phones often save video as MOV / HEVC (H.265). The files are small for their quality, but many devices and apps cannot play them.

  • Apps and sites won't accept it

    Editors, upload sites and online forms often reject .MOV files imported from an iPhone, and older players may not open them at all.

  • The person you sent it to can't open it

    Family or a client can't play the video on their PC or phone. Older TVs and car navigation systems often can't play it either.

  • HDR footage looks washed out

    It looks vivid on your phone but pale and faded everywhere else. HDR is the cause, though nothing on screen tells you so.

Solution

No settings. Drop it in and convert.

You never choose a codec or a bitrate. Pick one of two presets and the app handles the rest.

  • Point 01

    MOV / HEVC to MP4 that plays anywhere

    Drop your videos in and press Convert. The app writes MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio, a format that plays on almost every PC, phone, TV and app.

    • No settings to learn
    • Audio kept as AAC, never re-encoded
    • Portrait videos stay upright

  • Point 02

    Automatic color correction for HDR

    HDR (HLG) footage turns pale when converted as-is. The app corrects the colors during conversion, and the preview shows the result before you start.

    • Corrects HLG colors automatically
    • Preview the output colors first
    • No need to check again afterwards

  • Point 03

    No uploads. Everything stays on your PC

    Conversion happens on your PC and your videos are never sent anywhere, whether they are family clips or work footage.

    • Videos are never sent to a server
    • Works without an internet connection
    • Full quality and no watermark, even on the free version

Two presets to choose from

  • Keep quality

    Converts to MP4 at the original resolution. The recommended choice if you are not sure.

  • Compatibility first (up to Full HD)

    Scales 4K down to 1920×1080. Useful for older devices, or when you want a smaller file to send.

How it works

Three steps

There is nothing to set up first.

  1. 01

    Drop in your videos

    Drag .mov, .mp4 or .m4v files into the window and they are added to the list. You can add several at once.

  2. 02

    Choose a preset

    Pick "Keep quality" or "Compatibility first (up to Full HD)". The preview shows the output colors.

  3. 03

    Convert and save

    Choose a destination folder and press Convert. The free version converts one video at a time; Pro converts several at once.

Formats

Supported formats

Input
.mov / .mp4 / .m4v (HEVC (H.265) 8-bit and 10-bit HLG, H.264)

* Reading HEVC (H.265) video may require Microsoft's "HEVC Video Extensions" for Windows. If they are not installed, the app will guide you through the installation.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Are my videos uploaded to a server?

No. Conversion runs entirely on your PC, and your videos are never sent to or stored on the cloud or our servers.

How much can I do for free?

The free version converts one video at a time, up to the first 30 seconds of each, at full quality with no watermark. To convert full-length videos or several at once, buy Pro, a one-time in-app purchase.

Does the quality drop?

With "Keep quality", the resolution stays the same and the bitrate is kept close to the original. Audio is carried over as AAC without re-encoding, so the sound is unchanged.

What happens to HDR footage?

HLG-based HDR is corrected automatically so it does not look pale as an MP4, and you can check the result in the preview before converting. PQ-based HDR such as Dolby Vision is not supported.

It says I need "HEVC Video Extensions"

Reading HEVC (H.265) video may require Microsoft's "HEVC Video Extensions" for Windows. When you add such a file, the app shows you how to install them. If you only want to play the video on this PC, the extensions alone are enough. This app is for making an MP4 that other people, devices and apps can open.

Which versions of Windows are supported?

Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit).
