The update added several improvements to navigating, organizing, and exporting files for faster workflow.

These beginner-friendly changes further simplified the process for supposed complex video edits.

Apple also fixed a few bugs and optimized the Apple silicon's performance when upgrading a library filled with marked files.

The big tech firm announced the update for both Mac and iPad devices early in November as a way to "streamline the editing process."

Enough talk, here are the new features and bug fixes Apple added to the Final Cut Pro 10.7 update:

"Turbocharged" exporting speed for HEVC and H.264 files
Export Final Cut Pro for iPad projects to Mac devices

Apple also introduced a new update for its free editor app, iMovie, improving export processing on HEVC and H.264 files as well.

The update is free for existing users and $299.99 on the Apple Mac Store for those who still do not have it. New users can avail a free 90-day trial to enjoy the app.

How Good is Final Cut Pro for Video Editing?

Apple regularly updates the Final Cut Pro, introducing new features and fixes to enhance users' experience for the software.

Most important, updates are free with the Mac version being a one-time purchase service.

Although it is not as powerful and offers the same number of features as other subscription-based video editing apps, Final Cut Pro is still considered worth the price for both professionals and hobbyists.
