Compress Video · Three Priorities

Make a video easier to store or share.

Choose whether the next result should prioritize a smaller file, a balance of size and clarity, or more picture detail. ClipFlow shows the source metrics before creating a compressed video.

Size and detail, clearly framed

How to compress a video on iPhone with ClipFlow.

Three named levels replace a long list of codec settings, so the decision stays focused on the intended result.

Step 1

Open the video

Choose a compatible source and review its original file size, resolution, and running time.

Step 2

Pick the priority

Use Compact for smaller size, Balanced for a middle ground, or Clear to retain more visual detail.

Step 3

Create and compare

Generate the compressed video and review its resulting file size before saving, sharing, or continuing.

Three levels instead of a target megabyte

Compact applies the strongest size-first choice and is suited to quick sharing. Balanced is the default compromise between size and clarity. Clear keeps more image detail when visual quality matters more than achieving the smallest result.

The final size depends on the source and selected level, so ClipFlow reports the processed result instead of promising an exact target size in advance. Compression creates a new video, runs on your device, and does not require ClipFlow Pro.
