Video compressor express Reviews

It didn’t keep the expected quality in mp4 format. 😩

This may have worked for some, but as of April 2022, this can longer load videos from your library. It’s functionally broken.

Probably most useful app for those who need to reduce the size of their iCloud Photo Library

My use case:

Step 1) On a macOS (can be even a virtual machine, you don’t need to make Apple rich if you don’t enjoy macOS UI) you open Photos app, then export your photos to your self-hosted storage (CIFS or your preferred clod storage). You can do this as well without a mac, using File Explorer app or even the native Files app - the idea is to offload your originals away from iCloud

Step 2) Open Videocompressorexpress and compress all videos, then delete all originals. This way you can keep your memories in iCloud but at an efficient space utilisation ratio. Anytime you need the original (but seriously... do you ever need that?!), look it up in your non-iCloud storage ;)

App display and play video fine, just like anything else. When asked to compress it will just quit/ crashes (on iPad Pro 2020).

Revision;
It works on most of the video files, but stumbles once in a while...

As the sequencer software Logic Pro refuses to import straight taken iPhone video files, (wants to work with “.mov” files), Express VC does the trick beautifully! It’s a no fuss process. Simple yet effectively designed. Thank you for such a great App!
