Send Your Videos Via WhatsApp

With the information of these articles, you were able to optimize your videos for sending and sharing them on WhatsApp. The only downside was, that you had to manually enter the settings needed (frame rate, bit rate, etc.) when using a video converter. Thankfully, we have developed a fast and easy way to do this now!

And that’s all you have to do! Your video will be automatically converted so you only have to download it, all ready for WhatsApp.
Optional Settings For Your Video
It takes only three simple steps to get your video ready to send it via WhatsApp. And yet, there is more you can do in case you need to. The optional settings that you have at your disposal are explained below.
Presets
Presets are a simple and easy way to quickly optimize your video with only one selection. The presets will, mainly, affect the screen size of your video. Check out the following list:
| File Format | Screen Resolution |
| MP4 | 1280×720 |
| 1024×576 | |
| 640×360 | |
| 480×270 |
Disable Audio Track
If this option is unchecked, the audio track of the video remains untouched. However, by checking the box, you can remove the audio from it.
This comes in handy if the background sounds or conversations in the video would only distract from the visual content. Plus, that way your friends can open a video without fearing it blaring out sound when being in public (and their phone is not on mute).
Cut Video
Your video is too long or contains content you do not want to share? It takes too long until the real action started? Easy, just cut it. That way, you can make long videos shorter and concentrate on the important parts.
It’s easy, just state the starting and ending point in the following format: HH:MM:SS
