MP4 is the most versatile format for videos destined for mobile devices and social platforms.

We tailor the output to 9:16 aspect ratios when you plan to share to stories, ensuring that the final video looks crisp on mobile screens.
Key technical details:
Why MP4 for Facebook Stories? MP4 with H.264/AAC provides high quality at practical file sizes and excellent compatibility with mobile apps and web players. If you're saving for later viewing or quick sharing, MP4 is the best general choice.
MP3 is the go-to choice for audio-only downloads. It's lightweight, widely supported, and perfect for when you want to listen offline or extract the soundtrack of a video. Output uses the MP3 audio codec with selectable bitrates to balance size and fidelity.
For MP3 conversions, see the dedicated tool at . MP3 is ideal for podcasts, music clips, and audio notes extracted from YouTube videos.
We offer multiple MP4 resolutions to suit various devices and bandwidths. Higher resolutions provide sharper images but result in larger file sizes. If you plan to share to Facebook Stories or other social feeds, consider 9:16 optimized settings to ensure the final video fills the screen without letterboxing.
Choose the bitrate that matches your needs. Higher bitrates give clearer audio at the cost of larger file sizes. Typical options:
Format and codec choices impact both quality and file size. MP4 uses H.264 video at typical bitrates from 500 kbps to 8 Mbps, depending on resolution and duration. Audio in MP4 is AAC at 128–320 kbps. MP3 uses the MP3 codec with 128–320 kbps. The exact file size depends on video length, resolution, and chosen bitrate. A 4-minute video at 1080p may range from 60–120 MB in MP4, while the same video converted to MP3 at 320 kbps might be around 9–15 MB depending on duration and audio complexity.
Both MP4 and MP3 are supported across nearly all devices and platforms. MP4 is ideal for editing, playback, and sharing on social media, while MP3 is perfect for archival audio or listening offline. If you are saving for Facebook Stories, ensure your video is optimized for mobile screens (9:16 aspect ratio) and kept within common size limits for quick uploading and smooth playback.
