You can do it directly from your phone without any third-party apps. Here’s how:
Step 1: Open the Photos App
Open the Photos app on your iPhone or Android device. Navigate to the video you want to compress and tap on it.
Step 2: Tap on Edit
Once you have selected the video, tap on the “Edit” option located at the top right corner of your screen.
Step 3: Tap on Crop & Rotate
After tapping on edit, you will see various editing options. Tap on “Crop & Rotate” located at the bottom of your screen.
Step 4: Select Aspect Ratio
Once you have selected “Crop & Rotate,” choose an aspect ratio that suits your needs. You can either select a preset aspect ratio or create a custom one.
Pro tip:
Choosing a preset aspect ratio is recommended as it will automatically adjust the resolution, making it easier for you to compress the video without losing much quality.
