Exporting a Movie

Scroll to the project you wish to export then tap the action button on the toolbar. Select the export size for the movie. The exported movie will be added to your camera roll.

Project Settings

Scroll to the project whose settings you wish to change then tap the settings button on the toolbar. You can change the working aspect ratio for the project and also the base frame rate for exported movies. Changing the aspect ratio does not affect the quality of the captured images, although you must expect cropping to occur if the project's working aspect ratio does not match the aspect ratio of the captured images.
