Export to a Folder

At some point, you’ll want to export edited images from your Mylio Photos Library. Whether you’ve cropped a photo, adjusted exposure and color, or added important metadata like keywords and ratings, Mylio Photos saves these changes as metadata in XMP sidecar files. When you export an image, all of your edits are applied, creating a new file that’s ready to share, post on social media, send to others, or print.

• On desktop, exported files are saved to a folder of your choice, such as your computer or an external drive.
• On mobile devices:
  • iOS: Exported files can be saved to the Files app, where you can organize and share them easily.
  • Android: Files are saved to your device’s storage or an external SD card, and you can choose the exact folder to store your exports.
