My friend sent me a video from her Android in an email. It was .mp4 and it played fine on my 4s. I sent her a video back that id taken on my phone and she was un-able to play it as it was a .mov file?

I've been searching for an hour or so to find a way to make the iPhone save the videos I take as .mp4 instead, but everything I find seems to think iPhone already saves video as .mp4.

Very confused, can anyone shed any light?

Your friend needs a more capable media player on her phone.

Yeah, iOS owners have the benefit of a wider range of default video types than Android.
