Tips
iPhone videos without the hassle
- You can do it right on your iPhone: open this page in Safari, pick a video from your library and share the clip with the Share button.
- The result is MP4 with H.264, so friends on Android or Windows can open it without trouble.
- 4K videos are saved at up to 1080p. The clip is lighter and cuts faster.
- No preview on your computer? Some browsers cannot play HEVC. Type the times by hand and cutting works as usual.

FAQ
Common questions
Does it work in Safari on iPhone?
Yes. On iPhone FeatherClip uses standard mode, so long 4K videos can take a while. Keep the screen on.
Why won't my iPhone video play on Windows?
iPhones record in HEVC (H.265) by default. After trimming in FeatherClip you get an MP4 with H.264, which plays everywhere.
Will quality drop?
Slightly for 4K videos, which are saved at 1080p. Up to 1080p there is no visible difference.
