What to do first

  1. Make a copy of the original file.
  2. Compress the copy, not the original.
  3. Open the smaller file and check that it still looks right.
  4. Send the smaller copy and keep the original until the receiver confirms it works.

What this page is for

Compress Video for Email Android helps when the file is blocking an email, upload, or Gmail attachment. The aim is a smaller video that opens normally and still looks right.

Many email services stop normal attachments around 20-25 MB. The practical target is usually below that, with room for the message itself.

How to make it smaller

  • Check the video size and length first.
  • Lower bitrate before changing the frame size.
  • Keep the same aspect ratio and do not crop the video.
  • Export a smaller copy and watch the first, middle, and last part.
  • If the file is still too large, use a link or ask Devenia to prepare a safer version.

What to watch before sending

  • The smaller file should open on another device or browser.
  • The important text, faces, signatures, charts, or product details should still be clear.
  • The file name and format should still make sense to the person receiving it.
  • If the target is email size, check the final size before sending.

When Devenia should handle it

For videos, Devenia can prepare a smaller copy without cropping or changing the aspect ratio, then check that the important parts still look right.

This is separate from the guide. The page should still help you understand the job even if you do not ask Devenia to do it.
