Question 1

How do I make my video smaller?

Accepted Answer

Select your video, then enable 'Compression' and/or 'Resolution Scaling'. Move the slider toward 'Smaller File' or pick 720p/480p. The estimated size updates as you adjust.

Question 2

What is the fastest way to shrink a video?

Accepted Answer

The quickest significant reduction comes from lowering resolution. Dropping from 1080p to 720p reduces file size by about 50% with minimal quality loss. If you need even smaller, add compression or reduce resolution further.

Question 3

How small can I make my video?

Accepted Answer

With aggressive settings (low resolution + high compression), you can reduce videos by 90% or more. However, very small files will have noticeable quality loss. Find the balance that works for your needs using the preview and estimated size.

Question 4

My video is too big to send — what should I do?

Accepted Answer

Trim unnecessary parts, reduce resolution to 720p or lower, and enable compression. Email is ~25 MB; messaging apps are 8–16 MB. The estimated size shows before you process.
