How do I reduce the size of a video on my iPhone 11?

Answered by Edward Huber

To reduce the size of a video on your iPhone 11, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone 11.

2. Scroll down and tap on “Camera”.

3. In the Camera settings, you will see an option called “Record Video”. Tap on it.

4. Here, you will find various options that determine the quality and size of the videos you record on your iPhone. The higher the quality, the larger the file size will be.

5. To make your videos smaller, you can choose an option that balances both the size and the quality. The options available may vary depending on your iPhone model and iOS version.

6. Tap on the option that suits your needs. Keep in mind that the lower the number, the smaller the file size will be. For example, if you choose to record videos at 1080p at 30 fps instead of 4K at 60 fps, the file size will be significantly smaller.

7. Once you have selected your preferred option, exit the Settings app, and open the Camera app.

8. Start recording a video, and you will notice that the file size is smaller compared to when you were recording at higher quality settings.

By reducing the quality settings of your videos, you can save storage space on your iPhone and also make it easier to share or upload videos to social media platforms or other devices.

It’s worth mentioning that while reducing the video quality can make the file size smaller, it may also result in a loss of video detail and clarity. Therefore, it’s important to find a balance between file size and video quality based on your specific needs and preferences.

I hope these steps help you in reducing the size of videos on your iPhone 11.
