Video Compressor: Size Down

Support, without the runaround.

Quick answers for the most common Video Compressor questions.

Before troubleshooting

Update to the latest App Store version, restart the app, and confirm iOS permissions related to the feature you are using. Never include passwords, TOTP secrets, camera credentials, private family data, or children’s personal information in a public support report.

Frequently asked questions

Which mode should I choose?

Balanced aims for a practical tradeoff, Smallest uses HEVC for stronger space savings, and Compatible uses H.264 for broader playback support.

Will the original be changed?

No. The app creates a new compressed copy and keeps the original untouched.

Why can compression take time?

Large, long, high-resolution, or complex videos require more on-device processing. Keep the app active until the progress view completes.
