How it works
Drop your .mov file in — typically straight from an iPhone or a Mac screen recording.
WavyVid re-encodes it to standard H.264/AAC MP4.
Download the MP4 — ready for Windows, Android, and any platform that doesn't love .mov.
When you'd use this
- You shot a video on your iPhone and it won't open properly on a Windows PC or an Android device.
- You're uploading to a form or platform that specifically requires MP4 and rejects .mov files.
- You want one consistent format for footage that's a mix of iPhone clips and screen recordings.
Frequently asked questions
Why won't my iPhone video open on my Windows PC?
Some Windows apps and older codecs packs don't handle the specific H.264 profile Apple uses in .mov files smoothly. Converting to a standard MP4 clears this up in most cases.
Is MOV to MP4 lossless?
If the video is already H.264 (which most iPhone footage is), the visual quality loss from re-encoding is minimal — WavyVid uses a high-quality setting to keep it that way.
Does this work with Live Photos or HEIC files?
No — this tool is for video files (.mov). Live Photos and HEIC images need a different kind of converter.
Will this fix upside-down or rotated video?
The conversion preserves your video's orientation metadata, so it should play right-side-up wherever the original did.
Why does Apple use .mov instead of .mp4 by default?
MOV is Apple's own QuickTime container format, tightly integrated with iOS and macOS — it can hold the same H.264 video most MP4 files use, but the container itself isn't read as universally outside Apple's ecosystem.
