I am having storage issues and want to compress my videos by lowering the bitrate. What is the best app for this?
Handbrake, is also pretty good if you know what you are doing. I believe the latest version of JpegMini also can compress video. For longer format videos though, I just use Apple's Compressor.

Although it has ads, it compresses just fine. ... If you have a PC, you can use Handbrake. ... You can try Fast Video Compressor from the Microsoft Store — it’s free and super simple to use.

SVP Compressor (much simpler, drag-and-drop, no watermark, works fully offline so no quality loss). I’ve been using SVP for Discord clips — for example, a 1.2GB gaming video shrunk to ~150MB in ~30 seconds without stuttering or bitrate drops.

FFMPEG is probably the best, though not the most user friendly. Handbrake, is also pretty good if you know what you are doing. I believe the latest version of JpegMini also can compress video.
