FAQ

Are calculations sent to a server?

No. These calculators run locally in your browser and do not upload files or inputs.

Are the results exact?

They are planning estimates. Real exports can vary because codecs, motion, audio, metadata, and platform re-encoding all affect final size and quality.

Why might a real upload take longer?

Wi-Fi, platform processing, browser throttling, VPNs, and network congestion can add time beyond the raw transfer estimate.
