- Works on Android 7.0 and up
- Reproducible Builds
How does Compressor run on different devices? All tests are completed with a 25 second, 200MB 4K video compressed using the Medium preset in Compressor.
| Device | Speed |
|---|---|
| Google Pixel 8 Pro | 11s 61ms |
| Samsung Galaxy S25 | 7s 99ms |
| Samsung Galaxy S10 (Exynos) | 11s 27ms |
| Samsung Galaxy S8+ (Exynos) | 20s 79ms |
| Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) | 25s 35ms |
And what about Compressor vs Panda Video Compressor, a highly rated video compression app filled with ads with 10M+ downloads. These tests were done using each app on their respective medium presets.
| Device | Compressor | Panda Video Compressor |
|---|---|---|
| Google Pixel 8 Pro | 11s 61ms | 21m 40s 49ms |
I ran out of time waiting for my 21 minute video compression so I only ran it on my main phone, my Pixel 8 Pro. Hopefully this gives you an idea of how much faster Compressor is compared to an outdated ffmpeg wrapper using software encoding. To be precise, it's 117x faster.
Compressor wouldn't be possible without these amazing people
