By far my favorite editing app since 2021. Simple and easy to use! However, since last year I've noticed more and more features being hidden behind a paywall. Don't get me wrong, the Capcut PRO subscription is definitely worth (I had it for a month and it was so much easier to make edits). But I almost NEVER have the money to pay 10 dollars a month just to properly use an editing app, and it sucks that more and more stuff is being paid. It would have been better to just make the APP paid for atp
Reviews for CapCut – Video Editor
Love the app. Hate the price. I am not paying $10 a month. My Netflix with ads is cheaper. My editing app is free. Tons are free. Maybe if it was cheaper, I'd pay. And some of these videos I can make with my editing app except the AI ones, which I like using for my cat. I'd give 4 stars if it was free or cheap because it is slow with uploading the AI ones and gets stuck at 99% for a few minutes
I used to swear by this app and even bought Pro for its speed, features, and ability to edit 4K footage without compression. Now it lags unless I compress, which takes longer than editing itself (a 3-min clip = 22 mins). This defeats the main benefit, quick edits without needing a laptop. What was once seamless and efficient has become frustrating and nearly unusable.
Don't get me wrong, it's good for editing; It has everything you need!..... behind a paywall. Before, I used this app frequently for editing and many of my projects, and it was useful and accessible for many! Until they released the update for the app that probably caused most of the issues. Now all my favorite options that I used to use for editing are now pay-to-use. let alone, I feel that the only thing they are advertising now is their "ai features". for short; not accessible and sloppy.
To really use the app, you're paying for it. I'm trying to figure out why, though, minus the removal of the watermark and some effects. VN Video Editor allows importing LUTs, CapCut doesn't on mobile. I can access my external files on an SSD with VN, but not with CapCut mobile. The list is long, but those are two MAJOR problems. When you pay for a subscription, these should be basic functions.
As someone who actively uses this to edit, it's all of a sudden glitching when I move an audio and shooting it all the way to front from where it's at. It goes to normal when I click on it, but it continues to have this weird glitch, and I don't understand it, and this is the first time in forever where this has happened. I suppose it's time for me to find some other way to edit, because the pc version lags my computer so much.
I love this app. It makes me so mad that now basically everything is pro. Also, there's a lot of bugs. Like one of them, I can't use any animations that aren't pro. I can't afford pro, but I've literally been editing on this app for like, 4 years now. It makes me so mad that I just can't use some things. And I also can't look at the edit normally without it, because it's laggy either way. Please fix your app. And try to be a little less money hungry.
use to, the app was fun in all. personally I didn't care much that everything was going pro unlike everyone else, but that's when features I usually used were disappearing. like for instance you can no longer make your text fade out you can only let them fade in, and then some bugs like not being able to zoom in on stickers you've added this is. why I'm making a 1 star
I've been editing and using this app for 3 years. Best free app out there and now it is not. Sure, most of the non-useful features are free, but the more important ones are not. The most basic features like smooth slowmotion now cost money. The standard and pro subscription is the worst. For an app that was only downloaded because it's free, being $180 a year for BASIC features is a huge downplay. So disappointed.
good app, easy to use, great songs, and lots of choices for animation and effects. it's a little slow when uploading, and I don't like that there are some great animations locked behind pro mode, but other than that, good app Edit: It became more of a pain to use. I was searching for a like and subscribe animation thing I found by accident to put on my video and I just can find it. and everything similar is locked behind a pay wall.
