3GP at a glance

3GP

Convert to 3GP when preserving or processing older mobile phone footage, MMS-era videos, or device-targeted clips for constrained mobile environments.

It is a reasonable compatibility target for archival workflows involving legacy handsets.

For general-purpose delivery, MP4 is the more practical modern choice.

KMZ at a glance

KMZ

Convert to KMZ when a KML-based map needs embedded images, icons, or overlays to move together as one deliverable.

It is the right target for portable Google Earth projects, offline map bundles, and shareable geospatial packages that recipients should be able to open without relinking external resources.
