## Questions & answers

### Will Instagram reject the file for being the wrong format?

No. Output is MP4 at 9:16 with standard frame rates Instagram accepts directly. Upload works the same as recording in-app.

### My source video is from a webinar, will faces stay centered?

Face tracking follows the active speaker frame-by-frame, instead of a fixed center-crop that misses off-center speakers.

### Do I need to install software or sign up?

No install, no account. The converter runs in your browser. Open the page and drop a file.

### Does my video get uploaded to your servers?

No. Processing happens locally in your browser via WebAssembly, your video never leaves your device, and we keep nothing.
