    About MOV and FLV

    MOV: MOV is Apple's QuickTime format and the default for videos recorded on iPhone. Recent iPhones record MOV files in HEVC (H.265), which many Windows PCs and older Android phones can't play.

    FLV: FLV is the Flash Video format that powered early YouTube. Flash is gone, so FLV files usually need converting to play today.
