Compress video to 16 MB free
WhatsApp accepts documents up to 16 MB and sends them without re-compressing. This page opens with a 16 MB target: drop the clip, press Compress, then send the result in WhatsApp as a Document (attach → Document), not as a video.

Size you choose
Bitrate is computed from the clip length so the file lands just under 16 MB.
Keep it sharp
1080p for clips under two minutes, 720p for longer ones; remove audio if it is only wind noise.
On your device
No upload, no queue, no watermark. Works on laptops and recent phones.
Frequently asked questions
Why does WhatsApp still blur my video?
You sent it as a video in the chat. Send it as a Document and it is delivered byte-for-byte.
How long does it take?
About as long as the clip plays on a laptop; longer on a phone.
Is the video uploaded?
No.
