Developed by Wondershare, Filmora X is one of the most popular and advanced video editing tools that is used on Mac and Windows systems. Recently, it has come up with a brand-new version of Filmora X for Mac with tons of advanced options. Therefore, we decided to check the new features of this video editing Mac application and have come up with a review of these major updates. Without much ado, let’s get into details and know what more you can do with Filmora X for Mac.

What’s new in Wondershare Filmora X for Mac?

Compared to its previous version, the Filmora X video editing Mac application has added the following new features:

AI Portrait

These days, video editors are getting smarter, and Wondershare Filmora X is no such exception. The video editor has integrated advanced Artificial Intelligent features that can automatically remove the background for any portrait video.


Since this is an automatic feature, you don’t need to take the assistance of a green screen or chroma key to manually remove a video’s background. The inbuilt AI tool will do it for you by instantly removing the background, letting you focus on the human portrait. 


To access this option, you just have to add your video to its timeline and go to Effect > AI Portrait. Here, you can check different options for AI Portrait offered by Filmora X (like Human Noise, Human Border, Human Glitch, Human Pixelate, and Human Segmentation). You can just select any AI mode from here and get its instant preview on the side. There are also numerous options to adjust and customize these effects to get the desired video editing results on Mac.


It would be an extremely helpful feature for content creators of all kinds. Let’s say you are working on a video presentation, gaming tutorial, or any educational video. With this option, you can instantly remove the background of your videos and focus on your gameplay or the video lecture instead.

Filmora X has certainly taken a leap with this feature. When we compare it with other video editors for Mac, we discover that only a few editors have a similar feature in the market (while a lot of editing apps lack this option).

Apart from integration with Filmstock, the new features will let you download media from several other stock sources. For instance, you can search for any media from stock sources like Pixabay, Unsplash, and Giphy on the native interface of Filmora X. Later, you can directly download the media from Filmora X and easily include it in your videos. Needless to say, this would certainly save a lot of time and resources for video editing in Mac.

All you need to do is visit the Auto Reframe option in Filmora X and it will automatically detect the object and crops it. 


You can also select an aspect ratio of your choice (like 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, and so on) to get the right fit of the video to be posted on various social media platforms. Since this is only available in professional editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro so far, it has made Filmora X evolve into an advanced editing tool.

Motion Tracking

The new update of Filmora X for Mac has also made it easier for us to track any object in our videos. With its inbuilt motion tracking feature, you can automatically track any moving object in a video. Besides that, the editor has also included hundreds of effects and cool elements that you can integrate with the moving object to make your video look more interesting.
