FAQs
Q: Can I password protect my shared content?
A: No, we do not currently support password protecting content.
Q: What's the maximum length for exported videos?
A: While there's no strict limit, we recommend keeping videos under 10 minutes for optimal performance.

A: Not if you've shared a link to a tour or guide, or if you've embedded a tour into a webpage. That content will update automatically. Anything that has been exported or downloaded (videos, gifs, Smart Copy) would need to be reproduced and redistributed.
