"File too large" is the whole reason this page exists. Filemorph re-encodes video on your iPhone's hardware encoder — 60 to 80% smaller for screen recordings and camera footage — and nothing is uploaded.
Web-based video compressors have to accept your upload before they can do anything, which means waiting for a multi-gigabyte file to leave your phone over patchy Wi-Fi, hoping the site accepts a file that size at all, and trusting a server you have never heard of with a video of your kids, your home or your ID. Filemorph skips all of that: compression happens on the device the video is already on.
Filemorph re-encodes the video with Apple's AVFoundation using your iPhone's hardware encoder (H.264 or HEVC), so it is fast and does not drain the battery the way a software encoder would. Pick a quality preset or cap the resolution, and the original audio track stays in sync. Because there is no upload, a multi-gigabyte screen recording compresses just as easily as a 30-second clip.
In the app: Compress.
Messaging apps and email quietly cap attachment size, and a raw 4K clip from your camera can blow past all of them. Compressing first means the video actually sends instead of failing silently, and keeping a smaller copy alongside — or instead of — the original saves space on a full phone.
Yes. Unlike web converters that upload your files to a server, Filemorph converts every file locally using Apple's frameworks. Nothing leaves your device, and it works with no internet connection. This operation is part of Filemorph Pro ($29.99/year, 7-day free trial on monthly and annual plans).
Typically 60 to 80% smaller at the Medium preset. Screen recordings compress the most since they have large flat areas of color; busy camera footage compresses less.
Video compression is lossy by nature. The Medium preset looks visually close to the original on a phone screen. Keep the original in Photos if you might need full quality again later.
No. Since nothing is uploaded, there is no server-side cap — the only limit is the free storage on your device.
On-device, no upload. Plus 300+ more file operations.
