Watching movies and videos on your iPhone, iPod or the iPad is a common thing! But when you download a video of the internet in a format that your iPhone or iPod does not support, then you would require a converter to convert the video into an appropriate format. Generally, the supported format is MP4 or even the MOV format for some files! Also, there are a lot of other video formats that an iPhone, iPod or the iPad fail to play. But not to worry, there is an application for your rescue!
