WebM uses VP8/VP9/AV1 video with Opus/Vorbis audio — codecs with limited native support on iPhone. While Safari on iOS 14+ can play VP9 WebM, the native Photos app, iMessage video sharing, and hardware decoder path are optimized for H.264/H.265. The iPhone Video preset produces Apple-optimized video that works flawlessly across all iPhone features.

iPhone's native video experience is built around H.264/H.265. WebM files cannot be shared via iMessage, added to the Photos library natively, or used with Cinematic mode or Live Photo features. AirDrop also handles MP4/MOV more reliably than WebM. Converting to the iPhone preset ensures full integration with iOS features.

Older iPhones (pre-iPhone 12) have no VP9 support at all, making conversion mandatory for universal iPhone compatibility.

FFmpeg decodes VP8/VP9/AV1 video and Opus/Vorbis audio from WebM, then transcodes to H.264 High Profile Level 4.1 or H.265 Main 10 with AAC-LC audio. Resolution targets up to 1920x1080. Bitrate is 5-8 Mbps for 1080p. The output MP4 includes faststart flag and Apple metadata for proper orientation and creation date handling.

Safari on iOS 14+ plays VP9 WebM. But Photos, iMessage, AirDrop, and most native apps do not support WebM.

H.265 for iPhone 7+ (smaller files). H.264 for universal compatibility including iPhone 4S-6S.

Yes. H.264/H.265 MP4/MOV is fully supported for iMessage video sharing.

Yes. AirDrop handles MP4/MOV natively with instant sharing between Apple devices.

At similar bitrates, quality is comparable. VP9 is slightly more efficient, so the MP4 may be slightly larger for identical quality.
