Once you have finished your Powtoon, you can share it with others as a view-only link. The link is unique to that Powtoon and can be generated from inside Powtoon Studio or from your Workspace.
Note: If you are on a plan with a limited number of premium exports, sharing your Powtoon via a generated link counts as one premium export. See How Can I Share My Powtoon Without Using a Premium Export? for more information.
Want to share for editing instead? If you want another user to be able to edit your Powtoon, see How to Share a Powtoon.

What the recipient sees when they open the link
What a recipient sees when they open a shared view-only link depends on whether they have a Powtoon account and are signed in.
If the recipient is signed in to Powtoon: They are taken directly to a playback view of your Powtoon. They can watch the Powtoon but cannot edit it.
If the recipient is not signed in or does not have a Powtoon account: They see a landing page with the option to watch the Powtoon. They may also be prompted to sign up for a Powtoon account, but a Powtoon account is not required to view the shared link.
Note: Recipients who receive a view-only link cannot make changes to your Powtoon. To allow editing, see How to Share a Powtoon.
