Convert videos for free with Movavi’s Online Video Converter
It’s a real drag when you’ve got a great video but you can’t play it on a certain device or share it on a particular platform because it’s the wrong file type. For example, different devices play different formats (e.g., MOV, AVI, MP4). And some formats take up a lot of storage space while others don’t. Even licensing restrictions can block the use of a format.
The conversion is simple. In a nutshell, you just add your file to Movavi’s free online video converter, choose the output format, and click Convert (more details on this below). It doesn’t just convert video files to other video formats, either. It converts videos to audio or image files, too. The whole thing works quite intuitively.
