Frequently Asked Questions
Is ReelShift really free?
Yes. Every conversion runs on your own device, so there is no server cost per file and no reason to charge or limit usage.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Files are processed locally in your browser using WebAssembly. They never leave your device.
What file formats are supported?
ReelShift converts any browser-playable video into MP4 (H.264), WebM, an animated GIF, or MP3 audio extracted from the soundtrack.
Why is the first conversion slow?
ReelShift downloads a small WebAssembly conversion engine the first time you use it on a visit. After that, conversions start instantly.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no artificial limit, but very large files or exotic codecs may take longer or fail depending on your device's available memory.
