How to compress a video for TikTok (72MB)
TikTok’s Android app cap is 72 MB. iOS allows about 287.6 MB. If you post from both, 72 MB is the file that works everywhere. Landscape 1080p dumps often miss that number.
Shrink Clip’s TikTok preset is a free 72 MB video compressor in the browser. Pair it with Crop 9:16 if the source is not vertical. No watermark, no upload to us.
iPhone-only posters can switch to Custom and type 287. Keep Auto resolution so bitrate is not wasted on 1080p when the cap is tight.
How to compress a video for free
Three steps. The encoder runs on your device, so private clips never sit on a server.
1
Drop the video
MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, or MKV. The file is read in this tab — it is never uploaded.
2
Pick a size cap
Discord 20MB, WhatsApp 16MB, email 20–25MB, X 512MB, TikTok, Instagram, or a custom MB. Bitrate is calculated, not guessed.
3
Download the MP4
Two-pass H.264 in the browser. No watermark, no account, no daily limit.
