WhatsApp Video Optimizer update allows you to fine-tune settings for video conversion

Third-party conversion app WhatsApp Video Optimizer offers a quick way for users to convert videos to conform to WhatsApp's 16MB threshold for videos. The app picked up an update that gives users the ability to select the output folder as well as the resolution, audio and video bitrate.

Here is the full changelog for version 1.2.0.0:

  • Send music through Whatsapp
  • Added option to choose output folder
  • Added option to choose resolution
  • Added option to choose max filesize (WeChat/Viber/Custom)
  • Added option to choose video bitrate
  • Added option to choose audio bitrate
  • Bug fix (Crash when selecting videos)

If you're looking to share your local videos on WeChat and Viber, you can set the maximum file size to 20MB, which is the size limit for the messaging platforms. The addition of new features, such as the ability to choose the output folder, resolution and bitrate means that you have more control over the conversion process.
