Convert WebM to MP4

Turn a WebM from a browser or screen recorder into an MP4 your phone and editor can open. Your file is never uploaded — it's processed right here in your browser.

How it works

  1. 01. Add your WebM file

    Drop or choose your WebM file. Other video formats work too.

  2. 02. Leave the rest to us

    Nothing to choose. VP8/VP9 video becomes H.264 and Opus audio becomes AAC.

  3. 03. Download the MP4

    Hit Convert and download your MP4 file when it's ready.

Why convert to MP4?

WebM is the default for browser recordings and web video, but iPhone, the Mac Photos app and many editors can't open it. MP4 opens everywhere.

How the conversion works

VP8 and VP9 aren't widely playable inside MP4, so every frame is re-encoded to H.264. It takes time depending on length and your device.

Frequently asked questions

Why does it take a while?

WebM to MP4 has to change the codec, so every frame is re-encoded. Desktop Chrome and Edge use hardware encoders and are usually faster than real time.

Is my video stored anywhere?

No. The file never leaves your device — it's processed inside this tab with WebCodecs. Close the tab and nothing is left behind.

Is there a file size limit?

Up to 2 GB per file. The result is held in your browser's memory, so on devices with little RAM smaller files are safer.

Which browsers are supported?

Recent Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox. Speed depends on your device — desktop Chrome and Edge are usually the fastest.
