Questions people ask

Is my video uploaded?

No. It is compressed in your browser using your device's own video encoder, so it never leaves your phone or computer.

Is it free?

Yes. You get 10 videos a day up to 200 MB each, with no signup and no watermark. Any paid BeeCastly plan removes the daily limit and allows videos up to 2 GB.

How do I make a video small enough for WhatsApp?

Choose 720p and Balanced. Most phone videos shrink by well over half, and 480p with Smallest file goes further.

Which browsers work?

Recent Chrome, Edge and Safari, on phones and computers. Older browsers cannot encode video and the tool will tell you so.
