Convert HVC1 to MP4

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert HVC1 to MP4?
Yes - HVC1 converts to MP4.

Most .hvc1 files ARE MP4 already. If re-tagging hev1→hvc1 is needed: 'ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c copy -tag:v hvc1 output.mp4' (lossless, instant). To get a universally-compatible MP4 (H.264), transcode: 'ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 23 -c:a copy output_h264.mp4'.
