I just recently changed over to the s7 edge from iPhone and the videos I recorded on my iPhone is there any thing I can use to convert them so I can play them on my phone

They don't play? If you used Smart Switch to transfer, AFAIK they should have converted automatically. If not, you can always download VLC or KMPlayer or MXPlayer from the Play Store. They usually play more formats than the default video app.

I didn't use smart switch to transfer files. I just need a few videos converted to my camera roll so I can make a video for my business as the app I'm using needs the video from my camera roll

Ah. So it's the problem of the app you are using to make a video, not the phone itself. Does it need to be that app? Is there ah reason why not do the editing on proper editing software on a computer?

To play the videos (without converting), get MX Player (or VLC) from the app store.


To convert, I suggest doing so on your computer.
If you absolutely must convert the videos using your phone for whatever reason, search for "video converter" on the play store and have a look at the avaialble apps. I've never converted videos with my phone, so I can't recommend any myself.

If you use VLC for Android, then you shouldn't need to convert anything. It should just play in VLC.
