Yes you can try this code snippet to add MP4 uploads
add_filter( 'um_allowed_file_types', 'um_allowed_file_types_custom', 10, 1 );
function um_allowed_file_types_custom( $array ) {
return array_merge( $array, array( 'mp4' => 'MP4' ));
}
You can add the code snippet to your active theme’s/child-theme’s functions.php file
or use the “Code Snippets” plugin.

Thanks, I’ve tried via code snippets but that doesn’t work?

You will find MP4 as the last upload option.
Another question, can users upload .mov files and also what about HEVC files (Apple type)?
Thanks.
@tig1960
Yes you can upload additional file types by this code snippet,
where I have added a sort so MP3 and MP4 are together in the list
add_filter( 'um_allowed_file_types', 'um_allowed_file_types_custom', 10, 1 );
function um_allowed_file_types_custom( $array ) {
$array = array_merge( $array, array( 'mp4' => 'MP4', 'mov' => 'MOV', 'hevc' => 'HEVC' ));
ksort( $array );
return $array;
}
To play the files you need more code for the browsers to understand the file format like the example in this guide
