Comparing  to other video formats, MOV videos are more commonly needed to be merged  because as a file format exclusively designed for Apple&rsquo;s devices, MOV can have  a better flexibility when there is only a single video than there are many  videos. Merging your MOV videos can not only make the videos more nicely  arranged and make your story more complete, it will also make it easier for you  to transfer, storage, upload or share your videos through any channel. Programs  that allow you to merge MOV files are not rare. Adobe Premiere Pro, Sony Vegas, they  all support the video merging function. However, these professional video  processing tools are not only complicated to use, but also have high prices.

Like the MOV video  format itself, QuickTime Player is developed and supported by Apple, so  although QuickTime does not have advanced video editing and merging options  like Leawo Video Converter, using QuickTime Player to merge MOV files is still a  convenient and efficient choice for Mac users. If you are using a Mac computer,  don&rsquo;t want to install an additional video converter program, and don&rsquo;t have a  high standard for the merged video file as well, then you can directly use  QuickTime Player to merge you MOV videos. <\/p>\n<p>Merging MOV video files in QuickTime Player  is extremely easy. Follow the instructions below and you can successfully use  QuickTime Player to merge MOV files free, and then play or export it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Open the folder where your  videos are located, then use QuickTime Player to open the first video, or the  video clip that you want to be at the beginning of your final merged video.  Play it as usual.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>As the first video is being  played in QuickTime Player, select the rest of your videos then drag them onto  the playing window of QuickTime Player. As you hover the file on the playing  window, there will be a sequence bar that appeared at the bottom of the playing  window. Drop your file in the sequence bar. <\/p>\n<div class=\"tc\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/merge-mov-quicktime-import-05.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/merge-mov-quicktime-import-05.png\" title=\"merge-mov-quicktime-import\" alt=\"mmerge-mov-quicktime-import\" width=\"650\" height=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> You can select the video clips  in the sequence bar and drag them back or forth to rearrange the order of the  clips. You can also keep adding more videos to the sequence bar until all of  your videos are added. When all of them are added, click the &ldquo;Done&rdquo; button at  the end of the sequence bar to confirm the merging result.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tc\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/merge-mov-quicktime-done-06.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/merge-mov-quicktime-done-06.png\" title=\"merge-mov-quicktime-done\" alt=\"merge-mov-quicktime-done\" width=\"650\" height=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><strong>Step 4: <\/strong>Now you can play the merged video  file as one complete video.

However, if you are using a Windows PC, you  can also use a video player program to merge your MOV videos. But instead of  QuickTime Player, you are going to need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/10-alternatives-to-vlc-for-mac-and-windows.html\">QuickTime  Player alternative<\/a> on Windows, VLC Player this time.<\/p>\n<p>VLC Player is a professional video player  with many advanced video processing functions. When merging videos into one,  VLC does not provide a very simple user experience, but it is still convenient  when you want to merge videos but don&rsquo;t want to download an additional video  merger program. Here is how to merge MOV files in VLC Player. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Launch VLC Player, click &quot;Media&quot;  from the menu bar then choose &quot;Convert\/Save&quot;.<br \/>\n  <strong>Step 2: <\/strong>Click the &quot;Add&quot; button  to import your videos into the program. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>Once  the video clips are imported, click the &quot;Convert\/Save&quot; drop-down menu  and choose &ldquo;Convert&rdquo;. In the &quot;Destination file&quot; area, enter the new  filename for the merged video clips and then click &quot;Start.&quot;<\/p>\n<div class=\"tc\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/merge-mov-vlc-08.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.leawo.org\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/merge-mov-vlc-08.png\" title=\"merge-mov-vlc\" alt=\"merge-mov-vlc\" width=\"650\" height=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-part pl20 mt10\" id=\"part4\">Part 4: Merge MOV Files online<\/h2>\n<p>In the above, we discussed several programs  that you can use to merge MOV video files.
