Shrink videos to a fraction of their size in one drag and drop, without losing the quality that matters. ShrinkIt makes .mov, .mp4 and .m4v videos small enough to email, message or upload anywhere, and never makes a file bigger than the original.
SIMPLE, FAST, PRIVATE
• Drag videos or whole folders onto ShrinkIt, or right-click them in Finder and choose Compress with ShrinkIt
• Hardware-accelerated compression on Apple silicon, right on your Mac: your videos never leave it
• See the estimated size before you compress
• Compare the original and the compressed video side by side
• Drag finished videos straight into Mail, Messages, Slack or any app
• Original creation dates are kept, so compressed videos sort right next to their originals
MADE FOR BIG BATCHES
• Smart skipping: videos that are already small enough, already compressed or already in the queue are left as they are, so dropping a folder again never makes duplicates
• See what each batch saved, e.g. "Saved 14.2 GB across 87 videos", and how much ShrinkIt has saved on your Mac in total
• Export a report (CSV) of every video's size before and after, for your records or client work. It stays on your Mac
• If ShrinkIt is closed in the middle of a batch, continue the unfinished videos the next time you open it
• Keep your Mac awake during long batches, follow the progress on the Dock icon, and open each video from its notification
CONTROL WHEN YOU WANT IT
• 7 quality levels from Lowest to Highest, tuned to each video's resolution and frame rate
• Resize by percentage or to an exact size, e.g. landscape to portrait, with an optional blurred background
• Change the frame rate and audio quality
SHRINKIT PRO
• Compress as many videos as you like at once, and files larger than 1 GB
• Hit an exact file size: one click fits Email, Discord, Messenger or GitHub limits
• Exact bitrate or constant quality for full control
• HEVC (H.265) for files up to half the size, with HDR kept in HDR
• Save your favorite settings as presets
• Pause, resume and reorder long batches
• Watch a folder: videos dropped into it are compressed automatically
• A floating drop zone and a menu bar icon to compress from anywhere
• Transfer and compare metadata, remove audio, and choose the output format

Does for video what ImageOptim does for photos

When all you want to do is shrink the file size of a video, THIS IS THE APP YOU WANT. For years I've been jumping through laborious hoops in Adapter or VLC and similar apps, when all I wanted was to minimize the file size. Those apps are fine if you need MORE than just shrinking, but if you just want a smaller .mov or .mp4, I don't think this drag-and-drop solution can be beat.
Too unreliable

When everything works correctly, it does do a good job compressing the video file. However, I bought the lifetime pass because I expected this to make my life easier and it turns out I can’t trust it without doing a lot of extra work.Problems I ran into:1. Folder monitoring somehow queued 288 conversions when I only had 34 files in the folder.2. After I stopped using folder monitoring and just dropped the files into ShrinkIt myself, some of the conversions slowed way down and a few didn’t even finish overnight, even though most finished within minutes.3. It turned out that the super slow conversions actually were missing most of the video, although they did have audio. I spent a while tracking those down.4. When I finally got everything converted and imported into Photos, only 1 out of the 34 had its metadata transferred. The rest had a creation date of when the conversion happened.
Perfect!

I can't ask for better with this latest update. I looked for many different ways to compress my massive Final Cut files and this makes it so easy! Works on all resolutions too. I mostly am trying to compress for use on website background videos, so its amazing how it takes a 50mb video and gets it down to 15mb. Thank you!
AMAZING APP

ShrinkIt 3.0.2 makes big batches easier to handle and to keep track of.
• Drag a finished video from the Processing Queue straight into Mail, Messages, Slack or any app, or right-click it to open or copy it
• See what each batch saved, e.g. "Saved 14.2 GB across 87 videos", and how much ShrinkIt has saved on your Mac in total
• Export a report (CSV) of your videos: size before and after, space saved and where each one was saved. It stays on your Mac
• Smart skipping: videos that are already small enough, already compressed or already in the queue are skipped, and a copy that doesn't get smaller is never saved
• Pick up where you left off: if ShrinkIt quits or crashes in the middle of a batch, continue the unfinished videos the next time you open it
• Reopen your last results after closing the Processing Queue or the comparison
• Notifications with Show in Finder and Open buttons, and a progress bar on the Dock icon
• Fixes and improvements
