Choose FitVideo if…
- Your videos are private (family, clients, property interiors) and you’d rather not upload them.
- You convert or compress often and don’t want to count files per day.
- You’re on a slow or metered connection: there’s no upload and no download of the result.
- You want one-click presets for Discord, WhatsApp or email.
Choose FreeConvert if…
- You need formats FitVideo doesn’t cover, such as documents, images or rare video formats.
- Your browser isn’t supported by FitVideo, for example an older browser or some phones.
Switching is easy
There’s nothing to set up: open the compressor or converter, drop a file in, and save the result. Everything stays on your device.
Privacy in practice
Uploading to any online converter means your file passes through and is stored, at least briefly, on someone else’s servers. Reputable services delete files after a set time, but for personal or client videos many people prefer that the file never leaves their computer. FitVideo is built that way: the video is read and processed in your browser, and the result is saved straight back to your device.
