iMovie latest update on Ipad no longer exports a MOV file

I have just updated iMovie on my IPad Pro (2nd Oct 23). Before I could export (save to files) as a MOV file. Now it will only save as a imoviemobile file. Which will only play back on iMovie.

Obviously where I could easy playback my files as MOV (on various platforms), now I’m limited to just using my Ipad.

Why have Apple done this, and what is the easiest way around creating files I can use?

iPad Air (3rd generation)

I am having the exact same issue. I used to be able to save my edited videos from iMovie to the iPad Photo/Video library. That’s no longer an option. Saving on files it’s an iMovie mobile file! How can we convert it to a Mov file like before? Can anyone provide some insights? Thanks.
