Mojo vs smooth.videoWhen smooth.video fits better
You're making the animated pieces of a video, like titles, lower thirds, logo stings or animated stats, want them at full quality without a watermark, and don't need a team workspace.
You work on a computer, want the motion to be your own rather than a template's, or need the same animation in several sizes, for free and without a watermark.

- Yes. Export a 1080×1920 MP4, send it to your phone and post it like any other video.
