Discover New Videobolt Experience With Our Latest Platform Updates

Discover the changes we’ve made to Videobolt’s header and asset management, all designed to improve your creative workflow on our platform.

At Videobolt, we’ve always been focused on giving you the best possible experience when creating your next big project. Listening to your feedback, we've noticed certain areas of our platform that could work even better. That’s why we rethought platform navigation to create a more intuitive and efficient experience. Our latest update is more than just a few changes in names — it’s about connecting the dots, making sure your assets and projects, and resources you need come together in a seamless, efficient workflow. We’re committed to making your creative experience as smooth as possible, so keep your feedback coming — we’re listening.

Here's what you need to know about how we've made Videobolt simpler, smarter, and ready to help you create without unnecessary steps or distractions.

Easier navigation through the header and menus

As we looked at how users interact with our platform, it became clear that some of the names didn’t quite match the way you work. To address this, we renamed certain header sections and updated dropdown menus to make navigation and platform more user-friendly.

We’ve renamed the Videos section to Projects to better represent the broader process of creating and managing your work. Now, in the updated Projects dropdown, you’ll find just two categories: Drafts and Exports. The Exports section brings together all the things you created on Videobolt, whether they’re template exports or videos made with our Simple Video Tools, so you can keep track of everything in one place.

The Media section is now called Assets, as it more accurately describes the place where you add, manage, and organize your files. Following the same logic, the former Media Library in the dropdown menu has become Asset Library, reflecting its role in storing and browsing your uploads, imports, and recently used assets.

Here’s a list of various file types supported in our Asset Library:

Image: JPG, PNG, SVG, BMP
Audio: WAV, MP4,M4A
Video: MP4, AVI, MOV
Font: OTF, TTF, WOFF, WOFF2
Subtitles: SRT

Lastly, the Tools section has been replaced with Resources, which is now becoming a central hub for all the features and support you need to create your best work. The Resources dropdown now includes additions like Blog and important links that were previously in the footer, such as Champion Authors, Design Community, and Sell Your templates. We’ve also added links to Help, Contact us, and our Affiliate program pages as they fit more naturally within this section.

Faster asset management for smoother workflows

We’ve redesigned how assets are stored on our platform to make managing your files simpler. This redesigned Assets section introduces a clearer structure to help you organize your files in different ways.

So, now we have the Asset Library. This is your Videobolt folder in the cloud for files you want to keep stored and well organized (think Google Drive).

All the files you add to Videobolt directly from the template editor or one of our Simple Video Tools will be temporarily stored in either Uploads or the Imports folders. Uploads will host everything you add to Videobolt directly from your device and Imports will gather the files added from one of the external libraries we have integrated on the platform (Pixabay, Pexels, Unsplash for images or videos or Epidemic Sound for audio). These Uploads and Imports will stay there for a limited time, so make sure you drag-and-drop them to your Asset Library if you plan to have access to them in the future. In addition, we have the Recently used for quick access to assets you’ve worked with most recently.

To further streamline your workflow, we've placed Template Exports and Video Tools Exports alongside other assets for a more intuitive use. Having all your exported projects and assets in one place saves time, keeping your creative process smooth and efficient. No more switching between sections — with all your files right where you need them, it’s easy to keep your projects moving forward.

Clearer editor copy

To make the editor more user-friendly, we’ve aligned our wording with standard video terminology. The Produce & Download button is now called Export to align with industry standards. This change is reflected consistently throughout the Editor — wherever you previously saw Produce, you’ll now see Export.

We’ve also updated the Media section to Placeholders to more accurately reflect its role in the editing process and make it clearer which elements of the templates are customizable. This new term better describes the area where you can videos, audio, images, or text to make them truly your own. Just like with Export, this change is consistent across the Editor, keeping everything straightforward and easy to understand.

More intuitive uploads to Simple Video Tools

With the recent update, we’ve simplified how you upload videos to Simple Video Tools. To make managing your files more straightforward, the new upload menu now offers just two options: Upload directly from your computer or access the Asset Library. As mentioned earlier, the platform now provides everything you need in one place, neatly organized into categories like Asset Library, Uploads, Imports, and Recently Used, as well as Template Exports and Video Tools Exports for exported Videobolt projects. This update keeps things simple, allowing you to find your files faster and stay focused on creating.

What do these changes mean for you?

These updates are designed to make your workflow smoother and more efficient. By connecting Projects and Assets and bringing all Resources together, we’ve made using our platform more natural and easy to navigate. With these adjustments of our platform, you’ll spend less time managing menus and more time focusing on creating videos. We hope these improvements make your creative process faster, more productive, and most importantly — more enjoyable.

Boost your efficiency with simplified video making workflows

We’re always listening to your feedback and are committed to making our platform the best it can be for your video creation needs. With 13,100+ customizable motion graphics templates in our library, we provide you with a wide range of options to bring your vision to life, making the process of creating videos more accessible and efficient than ever.
