WebM is an open media file format designed for the web. WebM files consist of video streams compressed with the VP8 or VP9 video codec, audio streams compressed with the Vorbis or Opus audio codecs, and WebVTT text tracks. The WebM file structure is based on the Matroska media container. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\nAs a royalty-free alternative to H.264 standard, it's used for high-quality-but-low-bandwidth videos on sites like YouTube, Reddit, 4chan, and the like. Those are the reasons why people might prefer WebMs to gifs, MP4s, MKVs, or FLVs. However, this has resulted in a bad snag for those people who want to play WebM files on iPad or iPhone, since Apple's QuickTime player codec doesn't support WebM. That means the original iOS devices have no support for WebM file playback in Safari, Chrome (which uses the same WebKit-based rendering engine on iOS), any third-party browser or any app integrating a web view. So, does that mean we can't play WebM file on iPad or other iOS devices? Of course not. We've got multiple effective solutions on how to watch WebM on iPad for you. <\/p>\n
