Why convert MOV to MP4?

MOV is a common video format for Apple devices and some cameras, but it can be picky: some browsers, TVs, and messaging apps don’t handle it well. MP4 is the most widely supported format today and usually works everywhere with no extra setup.

Converting your MOV files to MP4 helps when you:

Need videos that play reliably in all major browsers.
Upload clips to social media, landing pages, and online forms.
Send videos to friends, clients, or coworkers without “can’t open file” errors.
Want a single, universal format for your archive or project folders.

GhostConvert takes raw MOV files and gives you MP4 output ready for sharing, embedding, or editing in most software.

How MOV → MP4 conversion works

Upload a MOV file from your iPhone, camera, or computer.
GhostConvert reads the video and audio tracks from the MOV container.
The video is re-packaged or re-encoded into an MP4 container.
You download a clean MP4 file that plays on phones, tablets, laptops, and smart TVs.

In many cases, the underlying codec is already compatible and only the container needs to change. Where needed, the video is transcoded to a web-friendly format so playback is smooth across devices.

Common reasons to convert MOV to MP4

Exported from iPhone or Mac as MOV, but your video editor prefers MP4.
Your website or CMS recommends MP4 for embedded videos.
Online forms and portals reject MOV uploads.
You want to send clips that “just work” on Windows, Android, iOS, and smart TVs.

Tips for best quality

Upload the original MOV file rather than a compressed copy from chat apps.
Keep your camera settings at a reasonable resolution (1080p or 4K) for clean output.
If a platform still compresses your MP4, upload the highest-quality version you have.

Frequently asked questions

Will converting to MP4 reduce video quality?

The converter aims to keep your video looking as close to the original as possible. When re-encoding is required, it uses a balanced setting to preserve clarity while keeping file sizes reasonable.

Is MP4 smaller than MOV?

Often, yes. MP4 is designed for efficient compression and web delivery. Depending on your original recording settings, the MP4 output can be smaller while still looking very similar to the MOV source.

How long are videos stored?

Videos are stored only long enough to complete the conversion and make the download available. After a short period, they’re deleted automatically as described in the Privacy Policy.
