One clip. A clear maximum.

How to make your video smaller

  1. Choose a preset

    Start with a target above, or open Full controls for a custom maximum and video settings.

  2. Select your video

    Choose a local file. Review the selected maximum, any resolution cap and the advice before compressing.

  3. Download and review

    Save the result and check its quality. Upload or attach it in your destination app yourself.

Telegram already permits large files

Telegram documents 2 GB files for free users and 4 GB with Telegram Premium. Both exceed SizeVideo’s maximum output, so these are smaller sharing targets rather than copies of those platform ceilings.

Send the right copy

Keep the original if you need an archival version. A smaller MP4 can reduce transfer time and downloaded bytes, but Telegram may process a video differently when sent as media rather than a file. Select the intended attachment mode in Telegram.

Questions about Telegram

Does Telegram Premium unlock this compressor?

No. Telegram Premium and SizeVideo Premium are separate subscriptions.

Why compress below Telegram’s limit?

You may want a smaller download for recipients, less local storage or an easier upload on a slow connection. Compression trades some detail for fewer bytes.

Can I change a preset?

Yes. Full controls opens the normal size ruler, custom maximum, resolution, frame rate and audio settings. Switching controls keeps the selected file. Presets set a maximum; the actual result can be smaller.

Will every video reach this size?

No. Very small targets can be unsuitable or fail for a long or detailed clip. Read the advice, try lower resolution or choose a larger maximum. Compression does not trim video or bypass a destination’s content and account rules.
