When you need it: Delivering phone or NTSC-region footage to a 25 fps (PAL) broadcast or project.
Because 30 is not a whole multiple of 25, the kept frames are not perfectly evenly spaced. It is rarely visible, but Blend frames can smooth fast motion.

Questions people ask
How do I convert 30 fps to 25 fps?
Choose your video in the tool on this page (25 fps is already selected), press “Convert frame rate” and download the MP4. It runs in your browser, so the file is not uploaded.
Does converting 30 fps to 25 fps lose quality?
Each remaining picture is the same as before; you lose motion samples, not sharpness. Motion looks a little less fluid, which at 25 fps is the normal look for that rate. The file is re-encoded with H.264, a small loss that is usually invisible.
Will the video get shorter or longer?
No. Frame-rate conversion keeps the duration and the speed. To slow a 30 fps clip down instead, use the slow motion maker.
How long is one frame at 30 and 25 fps?
At 30 fps each frame lasts 33.33 ms; at 25 fps, 40 ms (1000 ÷ frame rate).
