CyberLink today launches its video editing software PowerDirector 365 for macOS. It offers useful features such as keyframes, masks, blending, title designer, and more. At the same time, it is promising to be easy to use. The app is subscription-based and the plans also offer unlimited access to all of CyberLinks design packs for sound effects, animated titles, transitions, background music, LUTs, etc.

The Taiwanese software company CyberLink – founded in 1996 – has released multiple multimedia apps for both MS Windows PC and mobile platforms over the years. Now, they released their PowerDirector 365 for Apple computers with macOS. Let’s take a short look at what the app offers.

PowerDirector offers hundreds of video editing tools, built-in effects, and useful tools such as keyframes, masks, blending, title designer, etc. At the same time, as CyberLink states, the app offers a user-friendly interface with an easy learning curve. I think it could, therefore, be suitable for beginners or generally users that don’t edit that often.
