How to Convert AVI to MOV Online

Upload your AVI file

Drag and drop your .avi file onto the page or click to browse. You can select several AVI files at once to batch-convert them.

MOV is preselected

The output format is already set to MOV, so you can convert immediately. If you need to, adjust the codec, resolution, frame rate or bitrate in the settings panel first.

Convert and download

Click Convert. The MOV file is processed on your own device; nothing is uploaded to a server. When it finishes, click Download to save it (or Download all to get a batch as a ZIP).

Why Convert AVI to MOV?

Macs cannot open most AVI files in QuickTime, and Apple's editors will not import them. Converting AVI to MOV re-encodes the video to H.264 and the audio to AAC, producing a QuickTime file that imports straight into iMovie or Final Cut Pro.

Old camcorder AVIs are usually standard definition; keep the original resolution to avoid softening, or choose 720p to match a modern timeline.

Private by design: your AVI file is converted on your own device and never uploaded.
MOV preselected: the output format is already chosen, so it is a one-click conversion.
Batch friendly: convert several AVI files in one go and download them as a ZIP.
No limits, no watermark: free for files of any size, with nothing stamped on the output.

AVI vs MOV

AVI (Audio Video Interleave): AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is Microsoft's classic container from the early Windows era. It is still recognised by almost every Windows program and older media player, though its files tend to be large. It is best for legacy Windows software and older hardware players.

MOV (QuickTime File Format): MOV is Apple's QuickTime container. iPhones, iPads and Final Cut Pro record and export MOV natively, and it can hold high-quality H.264, HEVC or ProRes streams. It is best for Apple devices, iMovie and Final Cut Pro workflows.

In short: keep AVI when the priority is legacy Windows software and older hardware players, and switch to MOV when the file is headed for Apple devices, iMovie and Final Cut Pro workflows. Need a different target? The full Video Converter supports every format listed below.

AVI to MOV FAQ

Do DivX/Xvid AVI files convert to MOV?

Yes. The converter decodes DivX, Xvid and other legacy AVI codecs with FFmpeg in your browser and re-encodes the video to H.264 inside a QuickTime MOV.

Why does QuickTime say the AVI is unsupported?

QuickTime dropped legacy codec support years ago. Converting to MOV with H.264 and AAC makes the file playable and editable.

Is this AVI to MOV converter free?

Yes. Converting AVI to MOV on MediaConverter.io is completely free, with no watermark, no sign-up and no daily conversion limit.

Are my AVI files uploaded to a server?

No. The converter runs inside your browser using WebAssembly and WebCodecs, so your .avi file is read and converted on your own device. Nothing is uploaded, which keeps private recordings private and means there is no waiting in an upload queue.

Is there a file size limit for AVI to MOV?

No fixed limit. Because processing happens locally, the practical limit is your computer's memory and patience; multi-gigabyte AVI files convert fine on a desktop browser. Very large files take longer on phones.

Will converting AVI to MOV reduce quality?

The video is re-encoded into MOV. Keep the source codec, resolution and bitrate (the defaults) and the result is visually the same as your AVI; lowering the bitrate or resolution is what reduces quality, and you control that trade-off in the settings panel.

Which browsers support the AVI to MOV converter?

Current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on desktop all work. Chrome and Edge are fastest because they expose hardware-accelerated WebCodecs decoders.
