FFShare is an Android app that compresses images, videos, and audio files using FFmpeg before sharing them. It integrates into the Android share flow so users can shrink media files on the fly.

Use cases

  • compress a video before sending it over a messaging app
  • shrink photos before sharing them via email
  • reduce audio file size before uploading
  • compress media files on Android without a desktop
  • share smaller media files to save mobile data

When to choose

  • you want on-device media compression integrated into the Android share sheet
  • you prefer free, open-source apps from F-Droid
  • you need to compress images, video, and audio in one app

When to avoid

  • you need fine-grained FFmpeg filter control or batch transcoding
  • you are not on Android
  • you need editing features beyond compression
