If you just get a new iPhone, say iPhone X/8/8 Plus, one of the things you probably want to do is to transfer your favorite 3GP videos in your old phone to it. Since 3GP format files do not work with iPhone (X/8/8 Plus/7/7 Plus/6s), so you need to convert these files to iPhone friendly format first.
Convert 3GP to iPhone X/8/8 Plus with Mac (macOS 10.13 High Sierra included)
For a hassle-free experience and high quality video output, I recommend UniConverter, which provides optimized presets for iPhone (iPhone 3GS/4/4s/5/5s/5c/6/6 Plus/6s/6s Plus/7/7 Plus/8/8 Plus/X).
