Best settings for WhatsApp

WhatsApp sharing usually favors smaller, compatible MP4 files. Lowering resolution to 720p or 480p often matters more than small quality tweaks.

Best settings and limits

Best first try

Try Balanced at 720p first. If the result is still too large, use Smallest file and 480p.

When this may fail

WhatsApp may recompress media after you send it. This tool helps before sending, but the app can still change the final result.

Privacy boundary

The selected video file stays on your device while the tool creates the output.
