Stop WhatsApp from Ruining Quality
Ever notice how your 4K video looks pixelated when you send it on WhatsApp? That's because WhatsApp's built-in compressor is extremely aggressive.
It crunches videos down to very low bitrates to save server space. The solution? Compress it yourself first.
By using Cubix to compress your video to a size WhatsApp accepts (like 16MB or 64MB) with professional encoders (H.264), you preserve sharpness and colors that WhatsApp would otherwise destroy.
Status vs Chat Videos
For Status Updates
Strict 30-second limit. We recommend cropping your video to 30s clips and compressing to 720p for the best balance of speed and quality.
For Sending to Friends
Aim for under 16MB if you want it to auto-play. If quality matters more, target 64MB.
