How to convert HEVC to H.264 MP4 online
Open an HEVC video, such as an iPhone recording, and export an MP4 with H.264 video. H.264 plays on older computers, Windows without the HEVC extension, and apps that reject HEVC. The HEVC converter re-encodes the video in your browser without uploading it.

What to expect
- Supported inputs
- HEVC (H.265) MOV and MP4 files, including iPhone videos, and other readable video files.
- What happens
- HEVC video is re-encoded to H.264 in an MP4. Audio is copied when MP4 can hold it. A video that is already H.264 is copied unchanged.
- Limits
- Decoding HEVC needs browser support: Safari and Chrome on most Macs and PCs can, Firefox often can't. Re-encoding takes longer than copying.
Your files stay on your device
Your computer does the work, so the file never has to be uploaded, and that’s also why it’s free: there’s no server time for us to pay for. You don’t need an account, and nothing you make gets a watermark.
