About Exports

You may export a VoiceThread, allowing you to save a video version offline for archival purposes. The .mov file includes all media, comments, and annotations that exist on the live version of the VoiceThread. 

You can export any VoiceThread that you created or can edit, and you can export VoiceThreads created by other people if they allow it.

Once you export a VoiceThread, you must download it within 90 days. After this period, the export will expire, and you will need to re-export the VoiceThread to obtain another copy.
