How to Convert WEBM to MP4 for Apple Devices

Looking for a quick way to watch WebM videos on your iPhone or iPad? This guide shows you how to convert them to compatible formats using WALTR PRO, a powerful video converter for all your media needs.

Converting video files between formats can be challenging, especially when dealing with Apple's particular format requirements. If you've ever tried to play a WebM file on your iPhone or iPad, you know the frustration of incompatible formats.

What is WebM and Why Convert It?

WebM is an open-source video format developed by Google, known for its excellent quality and efficient compression. While it's perfect for web use, iPhones and iPads don’t support WebM, meaning you can’t directly play these files on iOS devices.

While browsers like Chrome and Firefox support WebM, you’ll need to convert it for offline playback or to use the native iOS player. WALTR PRO handles both the conversion and file transfer in one step, making your videos ready for the default Videos app on your device. It also supports transferring music from computer to an iPhone, whether wired or wirelessly.

Understanding Video Formats: WebM, MP4, and M4V

Before diving into the conversion process, let's understand the different video formats involved in video editing and playback:

• WebM: Designed for web streaming, it uses VP8/VP9 for video and Vorbis/Opus for audio. Not supported by iOS, which is why conversion is needed.
• MP4: A widely accepted format that works across almost all devices. It uses the H.264 video codec and AAC audio, offering a great balance of quality and compatibility.
• M4V: Apple’s version of MP4. WALTR PRO typically converts WebM to M4V for optimal playback on iPhones and iPads. Functionally similar to MP4, M4V is tailored to Apple’s ecosystem and may include DRM.
• MOV: A format developed by Apple and used in QuickTime and video editing software. WALTR PRO also supports conversion to MOV if needed.

With WALTR PRO, converting and transferring WebM videos is simple and fast—no need for additional apps or complicated settings.
