About this tool

This converts an MP4 into a QuickTime MOV file, with H.264 video and AAC audio inside. Most Apple apps open MP4 without complaint, so you only need this when a workflow, a client or a tool specifically asks for .mov.

How to convert MP4 to MOV

  1. 1.Choose the MP4 file.
  2. 2.Press Run and leave the tab open while it converts.
  3. 3.Download the MOV.

When people use it

A brief that asks for MOV

Deliver the exact container a client or platform requested without opening an editor.

Templates and pipelines

Some video templates, motion-graphics workflows and asset systems list .mov as the only accepted format.

Keeping a set consistent

Match the format of the other MOV files in a project or an archive.

What it will not do

Worth knowing before you upload, rather than after.

  • The video is re-encoded, which takes a little time and costs a little quality.
  • The output is H.264, not ProRes, so it is not an intermediate editing format.
  • Free files are limited to 100MB and 20 minutes.

Questions

How do I convert MP4 to MOV?

Choose the MP4 file above and press Run. Download the MOV when the job finishes.

Do I need MOV for a Mac or an iPhone?

Usually not. macOS and iOS play MP4 files natively. Convert only when a person or a tool specifically asks for .mov.

What is inside the MOV?

H.264 video and AAC audio — the same kinds of streams as a typical MP4, in QuickTime's container.

Is it free?

Yes — free, no account, no watermark, for files up to 100MB and 20 minutes long.

What happens to my file?

Your upload goes to private storage that is never public and never listed, and only the anonymous session that created the job can read it. The original file is deleted as soon as processing succeeds. The result stays available for about 90 minutes, and you can delete everything immediately with the Delete now button.
