Frequently Asked Questions
QHow much storage can I actually save?
Most users save 30-70% of their video storage. The exact amount depends on your video formats — older H.264 videos benefit most, while already-HEVC videos still see 20-30% savings.
QWill compression affect my video quality?
Not visibly. HEVC compression achieves the same visual quality as H.264 at roughly half the file size. You won't notice any difference when watching your videos.
QDoes this save iCloud storage too?
Yes! Compressed videos sync back to iCloud, reducing your cloud storage usage across all devices. Some users save enough to downgrade their iCloud plan.
QIs HEVCut free?
Yes, HEVCut is free to download and use. The free version includes compression for a number of videos. Pro unlocks unlimited compression.
QCan I undo compression?
Originals go to your Recently Deleted folder and stay there for 30 days. You can recover any original within that window if needed.
