Local files only
Your MKV stays where it is. The MP4 downloads to your machine. No upload, no logging, no third-party watermark.
The big-name converters route your file through their server, queue it, watermark the output, and count it against a daily quota. Morph runs the codec via WebAssembly inside your browser tab — drop the MKV, pick MP4, save the file quickly. No upload, no queue, no ad wall. Free for everything that runs on your device; AI is paid in credits.
FFmpeg.wasm parses the container, separates video and audio streams, validates timestamps — all in your tab.
Stream-copy when codecs are compatible (no quality loss, fast). Re-encode only when the wrapper demands it. Honest defaults.
Your MKV stays where it is. The MP4 downloads to your machine. No upload, no logging, no third-party watermark.
Drop one clip or a whole folder. Free tier has no batch ceiling — your device's RAM is the only limit.
The pattern is the same on every MKV-to-MP4 site that ranks in Google's top five: drop the file, hit a 100 MB cap, watch a queue progress bar, sit through an ad, get back a watermarked or re-encoded file you didn't ask for. The tax is real — your time, your bandwidth, your privacy — even when the conversion itself is free. Morph collapses the whole pipeline into your browser tab.
Those services upload your MKV to a server, queue it behind everyone else's job, cap file sizes, and watermark long videos. Morph runs FFmpeg.wasm in your browser — no upload, no queue, no watermark, no quota.
When stream-copy is possible (compatible codecs), no — the bytes are repacked into a new container without re-encoding. When the codec must change, Morph uses sensible high-quality defaults; the trade-off is honest, not hidden.
As big as your browser's memory will hold. Most modern laptops handle 4-8 GB clips comfortably. The free tier has no artificial cap.
Yes. Free tier has no batch limit — drop a folder and let it run.
Yes on iPad and Android Chrome. iPhone Safari handles smaller clips well; multi-gigabyte conversions are happier on a laptop.
Yes. Everything that runs on your device is free with no cap. AI and server work is paid in credits, about a cent each.
