A simpler alternative to HandBrake for shrinking videos
Make a video small enough for Discord, email or WhatsApp in three clicks — no presets, codecs or bitrates to understand.
Free · no account · 3 free uses of every tool · also for Mac (Intel), Windows, Linux
HandBrake is excellent and free — and it shows you dozens of settings. If all you want is “make this video small enough to send”, there is a quicker way.
Three choices, plain words
- Quality: High, Good, Small, or Tiny (for Discord and email limits).
- Resolution: keep it, or cap it at 1080p, 720p or 480p.
- Sound: keep or remove.
It always produces a widely playable MP4, so the result opens on phones, Macs and Windows alike.
Also in the same app
Extract the audio as MP3, turn a clip into a GIF, trim without re-encoding, and convert or even out the volume of audio files.
