Why it's better

Converting YouTube videos are free and easy.

Motionbox is the easiest and best tool to convert any public YouTube video to an mp4 or GIF. We designed it to be as easy as possible. Simply paste your YouTube link in our media modal shown in the demo above. Trim and wait a few seconds. You will then be able to resize the YouTube video for other social media platforms, this works great for repurposing content. You can take the wide 1920x1080 dimension from YouTube and convert it to a 1080x1080 dimension for the Instagram feed, or 1080x1920 for the iPhone. Then if you want, you can add music to the YouTube video, trim and cut, add text, subtitles, and more with our video editor.

How to convert YouTube videos

Create a new video

Once you've created your account, simply go ahead and create a new video, there will be a plus icon (shown in the demo video above). Paste your YouTube video URL in the input box and it will automatically pull it in. You can trim the video and add it to our timeline. From here you have the option to edit, resize, etc.

Edit the Video

This is completely optional but if you would like at the very least to repurpose the YouTube video for other platforms, you can resize the video to fit on an iPhone, or on Instagram/TikTok. You also have the ability to change the volume, speed it up, slow it down, add text, trim, and much more

When you are satisfied with the video, you can simply press the blue export button in the top right corner. You will be asked what format and quality you would like to export your video as. Choose between GIF or MP4, press export and voila you have a repurposed video meeting your creative demands.
