Apple smartphones and tablets support not all video formats.
In most cases, videos in the MP4 format will be playable.
However, sometimes you may still encounter some issues.

if you bump into this problem, it is most likely sparked by the wrong kind of codec.
So heres what can help you to play MP4 videos on your iPhone if they wont.
I have selected five apps that play almost any video format on iPhone, including MP4.
So lets take a closer look at each one.
VLC
VLCis generally considered one of the best video players.
The app supports many video formats, including all the most common file types and codecs.
For Mac and iOS users, VLC also supports AirPlay streaming video and audio.
VLC is also integrated with Dropbox and other cloud storage services.
Other excellent features, such as captions support, multitrack audio, and speed control, are also available.
KMPlayer
KMPlayeris an excellent app for the iPhone.
Its suitable for anyone who wants to stream content in high resolution.
The app can potentially play even 8K content.
It also supports more captions formats than almost any other video player for iPhone.
KMPlayer is free to download and use.
PlayerXtreme Video Player
PlayerXtreme Video Playeris a widely used video player for the iPhone.
It has one of the most extensive feature lists of any video player in the App Store.
Infuse
Infuseis another app you should check out.
It has been available for several years and is considered one of the best video players for the iPhone.
Thus, its a direct competitor to PlayerXtreme Media Player.
However, its paid and costs $3.49.
For example, as well as VLC, GPlayer has a Wi-Fi download function.
Other essential features include AirPlay support, gesture support, and iTunes integration.
However, here you will need the help of the PC or laptop.
In this case, I recommend using theAny Video Converter (AVC).
This program is free and easy to use.
Alternatively, you’re able to send it using messengers like Telegram Desktop.
