If your project contains a recording, you can easily export and share it with others. If you use a mobile device, then there are two possibilities: you can either share your video using the cloud, or by rendering it on your device and sharing it as a video.
Note: Learn how long it may take to process your video.
If you are using the Web version of Explain Everything, you have just the option to share the video as a weblink - it will be rendered for you in the cloud.
