CapCut - Photo & Video Editor 12+

I don’t usually do reviews ever but I really do think the developers deserve the credit where it’s due. This is hands down the best editing software I’ve ever used on a smartphone to the point where, for my own editing purposes and what I do…I never want to use a pc for editing again. It’s so much faster to do it on your phone these days and these guys nailed it. Everything easy to find and add Filters / Effects/ Music etc

Sure, It’s not necessarily going to be used by universal studios but that’s not the point of this software is it? It isn’t trying to be something that it’s not and because of that it doubles down on what it’s good at. Being a fast, feature rich and efficient phone video editor. The audio extraction feature is incredible and editing the soundtrack is a breeze. Only very small gripe with that is I wish you could zoom in just a little more to make macro adjustments when splicing tracks together. All in all, for the average user where speed and ease of use trumps all else, ie most people…
Best. Video. Editor. Ever.

I use capcut daily for my blog. It’s has some very good features, don’t get me wrong, but some new updates are very annoying. You have to update every single project you do, unfinished or finished, just to view it, every single time you update the app. Why? The pro membership needs working on. There are a lot of things you can’t do because of it which is frustrating. No point in advertising AI filters when half your users can’t even use it. The music needs updating. There are many tunes, but I can’t find the nice ones or ones that are trending. There is a lot of swearing. I’m okay with that, but does it have to pop up in every single video? Also why did you have to remove the live makeup filter! I loved that! Now I’m not going to be all negative, as your app is very sleek and easy to use, apart from the issues above. It is very fun, and I could spend hours looking at all the templates. Thank you for changing that layout, as it was so confusing, so that really helped. Overall, there are some things which need working on, but THANK YOU FOR THIS EASY AND FUN APP! (Could you try to make a trailer/movie section?)

This app is amazing for beginning editors, but my only problem is their isn’t enough options for video/image animations. I really like when people do typography edits as it looks really cool, and i know there is a way to do that on capcut but i think it would be easier if there was an option for that in the effects or something. There also aren’t enough good transitions. I don’t really think there’s any point in the more cartoony transitions because they just look more childish and are less likely to be used (personally).
Also, (i’m not sure if this is a problem with my phone or not, but...) whenever i’ve spent a longtime on the app, it eventually gets very laggy. sometimes i’m able to keep up with it but other times it can be frustrating as it’s harder to match up the footage to the audio.
There are many things to be improved, but i do like that the watermark at the end of the video can be deleted without any sort of payment (which not many decent editing apps usually allow). This is a great app for beginners like i said, and i would definitely recommend if you are trying editing for the first time.
