Why not HandBrake or an upload tool?

Both work well for what they're built for. Here's the honest difference.

HandBrake

Free and open source, with full manual control over every encoder setting. QuickCompress trades that control for one question: how small?

Cloud upload tools

Convert in a browser, but your file leaves your Mac first, and pricing is often metered or watermarked on the free plan.

FAQ

Small app.
Clear answers.

Does QuickCompress upload my videos?+
No. Compression happens locally on your Mac. Your videos never need to be sent to QuickCompress servers, and we never see the file itself.
Is there a file size limit?+
No. QuickCompress processes files locally rather than through an upload limit, so there is no artificial cap on source file size.
Which video formats are supported?+
MP4 and MOV, the two containers real-world footage from phones and cameras almost always arrives in.
Will compression reduce video quality?+
Compression always involves trade-offs. QuickCompress chooses sensible settings automatically for the outcome you ask for.
Why not just use HandBrake?+
HandBrake is excellent for advanced transcoding. QuickCompress is for people who want a smaller video without thinking about codecs, bitrates or encoder profiles.
How does the license work?+
One $39 Early Bird purchase (the standard price after launch is $59) is a one-time payment, not a subscription. It grants a lifetime license for QuickCompress.
Can I use QuickCompress on more than one Mac?+
A license activates one Mac at a time. Moving to a new Mac is self-serve: deactivate the old Mac from Settings, then activate on the new one. No need to contact support for a routine transfer.
Do I have to pay again for updates?+
No. Early Bird customers receive all future QuickCompress updates at no extra cost.
Which Macs are supported?+
Apple Silicon Macs (M1 or later) running macOS 13 (Ventura) or newer.
