Comments and Reviews

   
Comment summary: CapCut is praised for its functionality as a mobile video editor, offering features such as trimming, merging, and a variety of audio options, making high-definition exporting simple. Users value its vast array of effects, ease of use, and free option. However, recent negative feedback highlights a shift towards paywall restrictions and privacy concerns with Bytedance. Despite some limitations, it's recommended for beginners over more complex tools like Premiere or Resolve.

Capcut is really impressive. It has a few limitations but I think it's a good place to start compared to Premiere or Resolve which can be intimidating.

By using CapCut you agree that Bytedance (TikTok) sell your face, voice, and likeness in ads, AI training, or even sell that footage to others!

I wouldn't touch it, if you really need a mobile editing software use : LightCut icon LightCut

If you need a WebEditor use Mastershot icon Mastershot

If you are serious about video editing simply learn DaVinci Resolve icon DaVinci Resolve

CapCut is easily the best mobile video editor for creators. The keyframe animation and auto-captions save so much time during post-production. While the desktop version is great, the mobile app remains unmatched for quick, high-quality social media edits. A must-have tool for any modern creator!

Love using CapCut because it's free and easy-to-handle. Use it to create home videos

I used to have that crappy Bandicut and switched to Filmora, but it’s paid, so I couldn’t really recommend it to my colleagues. For anyone who just needs simple cuts like I do, it’s the best. It’s very easy to use and handles basic tasks without any trouble.

What I Use

The apps I have installed and use myself for day to day things, mostly as someone who has PP memory and subpar energy; I am trying for more open-source apps, but it depends. Organized alphabetically.
