How To Compress a Video Online For Free

Getting started with our MP4 compressor is incredibly easy. Just access our Compress video tool, a part of Videobolt’s 16 intuitive editing tools available in the Simple Video Tools collection, designed to provide a user-friendly experience to creators of all skill levels.

Once you've accessed it, it's time to upload your video file. Our platform supports a wide range of formats, including the most frequently used options such as MOV, AVI, and MP4. You won't be bogged down by format limitations, so feel free to upload your video without worry. However, please note that the file you're uploading has to be at least 5 MB in size.

Now comes the part where you choose the video compression level that suits your needs. Whether you're posting or streaming on social media, sharing via email, or hosting on a website, it’s critical to reduce video file size to meet specific criteria.

Our video compressor offers three preset compression levels: low, medium, and high. Alternatively, you can opt for the custom setting and specify the target file size in megabytes. It's important to note that the higher the video compression level you choose, the smaller the resulting video file size will be. When deciding on the compression option, aim for a balance between decreasing video size and maintaining video quality. Be aware that opting for smaller video sizes may lead to a noticeable reduction in your video's quality.

With the right compression settings selected, you can easily produce and download your video adjusted to your needs. Just click "Compress & Download," and Videobolt will take care of the rest. Your compressed video will be downloaded instantly, watermark-free. Not happy with your creation? Don’t worry, simply click “Edit again” and choose a different video compression level.
