What issue do you have?

The first time I tied to export it seemed to finish but doesn't tell me where the file is.

Trying again it spins for a couple minutes before failing and saying the file already exists.

Where is it?

That sometimes happens. Try exporting again and it should open a share to prompt when completed

Thanks for the quick response.

Unfortunately I have retired this several times and it always does the same thing.

Says that exporting for several minutes and just gives up with the file already exists error message.

Can you tell me where on Android it thinks it is saving the file and what it's naming it?

I can try manually deleting it.

I don't know where it would try to save before sharing to be honest. I've had the file already exists error before as well and redoing export resolved the issue. You could try force closing the app before re-attempting the export as well.

Also ensure that the screen is kept on during the export and make sure not to switch to any other app while it is exporting.
