Export a Project to a Different Device

Running out of space on your device? Do you want to share projects between devices or create a backup of your valuable work? To transfer your project, you can do the following:

Using Online Share Services

Use Dropbox, GDrive, OneDrive, or any other online service to share projects between devices.

  1. Use a swipe gesture to scroll until you see the project you want to share.
  2. Touch and hold the project to select it.
  3. Tap the share symbol.
  4. Tap Project. It’s important to select Project. You won’t be able to continue working on the project if you export the movie file.
  5. Select the service (e.g., Dropbox) where you want to export your project.
  6. On the other device, open the Dropbox app and select the project. Choose Open in to open the project. The app will import the project. Depending on the size of the project, it may take a few minutes until the project appears.

Using AirDrop

To share projects between Apple devices, you can also use AirDrop:

  1. Use a swipe gesture to scroll until you see the project you want to share.
  2. Touch and hold the project to select it.
  3. Tap the share symbol.
