How To Compress Video Files On Your iPhone?

Compressing a video on your iPhone to free up storage space or transferring a video file to other devices is one of the simplest things to do on your iOS device. As Apple keeps updating the iPhone, one of the improvements several users are looking forward to is a doper camera technology.

Even if amateur owners can now record high-definition clips, having such a huge file on your phone makes it hard to share through file transfer, message, or email and it could overwhelm your device’s storage capacity.

However, Apple has provided a way to anticipate this issue by decreasing the default file size. Let’s break down How To Compress Video Files On Your iPhone?:

How Can I Compress Video On My iPhone By Adjusting Video Recording Settings?

  1. To modify the recording resolution of a clip, launch your Settings application.
  2. Tap the “Camera” tab and then click “Record Video.”
  3. A number of options you can choose as your default recording size will be visible, and they will help you to record and save smaller clips. The more recent iPhone models have more options.

Sadly, for whoever wishes to record at a high resolution but still want to free up storage space, iPhones have no built-in feature that will let you compress clips. Therefore, you have to depend on a 3rd-party app. A very useful app is Video Compress and it is simple to use.
