What VideoRepair is

VideoRepair repairs corrupted or unplayable MP4 and MOV videos by rebuilding damaged file structure. Its automatic workflow requires a working reference clip recorded with the same device; using the same camera settings helps reconstruct container metadata. The homepage describes providing the damaged video and reference sample, then downloading the repaired file. The reference can be short, and repair time depends on file size and damage level, typically taking minutes. The homepage says files are processed for repair and can be deleted at any time. The App Store listing says repair happens locally on the device, without uploading files or using cloud processing. Compatible sources named in that listing include GoPro, DJI, Sony, Canon, Blackmagic, action cameras, and dashcams. The service is listed for iOS, macOS, and web. App compatibility requires iOS 18.1 or later, iPadOS 18.1 or later, or macOS 15.1 or later. Lifetime access is listed at €99.99, paid once. Windows, Linux, and Google Play are marked as coming soon.
