Does MOV to MP4 always reduce file size?

No. MP4 is a container. Stream copy usually preserves most of the original data size; re-encoding may increase or decrease file size.

Can I keep original quality?

When streams are MP4-compatible, Fast remux copies coded streams without recompressing. Other codecs require re-encoding.

Will iPhone videos work?

Many iPhone MOV files can be converted. Specific HEVC/HDR/color formats depend on encoder and playback support; always check the exported result.

THE WORKFLOW, EXPLAINED

How to MOV to MP4 online

Select one or more MOV files and review the source details.
Choose Auto (try fast remux first), Compatible H.264, or a custom quality preset.
Start processing and inspect the converted MP4 before sharing.

MOV is a container, not a single codec

An MOV file may contain H.264, HEVC, ProRes or other video formats. Changing .mov to .mp4 does not convert codecs. A remux can avoid re-encoding when streams are compatible; otherwise a full export changes the video bitstream. This workspace uses browser-local media codecs for output creation. First-time processing may require downloading a sizable WebAssembly engine; conversion speed, available encoders and supported formats depend on the device, source file and browser. Review the exported video or audio before relying on it professionally.
