To File System

PhotoEditor SDK supports saving photos to the device's file system.

Set an accessible export path#

In order to save the video in the local filesystem, you can simply pass in a valid file URI to the ExportOptions. Please note that you need to specify the file extension for Android, while it is automatically added for iOS.

Alternatively, you can also just copy the file after it has been exported by the SDK.
