Export on Mac
Filmora provides six ways to export your videos. Follow the steps to learn how to export your video in different ways.
Index
Export to Local
Step 1: Choose the format
To export your video to your computer, click the "Export" button and choose the "Local" tab. Then, select the format you want to export in. Currently, Filmora supports the following formats: WAV, MP4, AVI, MOV, F4V, MKV, TS, MPEG-2, WebM, GIF, AV1 MP4, MP3, GoPro CineFrom and more as shown below.

Step 2: Adjust export settings
After selecting the output format, you can rename the video and change the location on your computer where you want to save it. You can also check the output resolution, frame rate, size, and duration before you export. To change your export settings (i.e. resolution, bit rate, and frame rate) click the "Settings" button.
In the Settings window, there are three quality levels: Lower, Recommend and Higher. The only difference between them is the Bit Rate. You can easily adjust this or other parameters, such as Resolution, and Frame Rate in this window.
It is best to export your video with the same settings as your original video.

Step 3: Export the video
When you're finished adjusting your export settings, press "Apply" to save them. Then, after you have closed the Settings window, press the "Export" button in the Export window.

Note:
The size of the video depends on the length of the project and the bit rate. If the file size looks too big, you can try changing the bit rate in the Settings window to make it smaller.
Export to Device
In the Device tab under Format, you can choose to output your video according to the ideal settings for different types of devices, such as iPhones, iPads, Apple TVs, Smart Phone, Galaxy S, Smart TV, PlayStation, and more. You can also make manual adjustments to your settings by clicking the Settings button. Click on "Export" button when you’re finished.

Note:
Exporting in this way won't automatically transfer your videos to your devices. While, your videos will still be stored on your computer's local hard drive.

Export to Social Media
To upload a finished video directly to YouTube, click "Export" and select "YouTube," "Vimeo,"or"Tiktok." Input the title, description, and tags for the video and choose whether to upload the video as public, unlisted, or private. You will also need to sign in to your YouTube account.

Export to TikTok
When you finish editing a video clip in Filmora, you can also export and share it to TikTok directly. Follow the steps below:
Step 1: To upload a finished video directly to YouTube, click “Export” and select "TikTok".

Step 2: Click on "Log in" icon from the window, and you'll be led to the "Log in to TikTok" page.
Step 3: You’ll see 7 login options; choose the one you registered in TikTok. (If you don’t have a TikTok account, you'll need to create one from here.)

Step 4: Here we take the phone number as an example, enter the number and login code, and then click "Log in" to proceed.

Step 5: Once you log into your TikTok account successfully, authorize Filmora to connect with TikTok, and you'll see a window below.
Step 6: You can customize the video and audio settings in Filmora before sharing it with TikTok.
Export to Vimeo
To upload a finished video directly to Vimeo, click on "Export" and then select Vimeo. Input the title, description, and tags for the video and choose whether to upload the video as public, unlisted, or private. You will also need to sign in to your Vimeo account.

Burn a DVD
You can burn your video from a DVD. Choose the "DVD" tab and enter the required settings, such as the aspect ratio, TV Standard and disc type.
