Frequently asked questions

Is MOV to WebM really free?

Yes — free and unlimited. No sign-up, no watermarks, no daily caps, no file-size limits. Convert as many files as you like.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser tab — there is no upload endpoint, so your file’s bytes never leave your device. You can even convert offline after the first load.

Can I convert sensitive or work documents?

Yes. Because nothing is uploaded, private files stay private. That makes Optimal Convert suitable for GDPR- and HIPAA-sensitive workflows without a data-processing agreement.

Will the WebM file play everywhere?

WebM with VP8/VP9 + Opus plays in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Android and most players. Safari doesn’t ship a WebM encoder, so the WebM option is hidden there automatically.

How big is the animated GIF?

GIF is a 256-color format, so the clip is downscaled, sampled and frame-capped to keep the file reasonable — a few seconds looks great, a full movie does not. Use WebM for long or high-motion footage.
