Frequently asked questions
How much smaller does the video get?

Is the video uploaded to a server?
No. Processing happens in your browser, with FFmpeg running on your device. The file never leaves your computer or phone.
Why does it take a while?
The first time, the browser downloads the video processor (about 30 MB), which is then cached. Long videos take longer because everything runs on your device; a computer is much faster than a phone.
