But this pro thing is getting out of hand. extract audio was the most useful thing about the app. I miss when CapCut was free and accessible ### 2/5 — Why is everything VIP *2026-08-14, version 19.0.0* I used to use Capcut all the time. Almost everything was free, except for a few really cool features, which is totally understandable. You can have select features that are useful but not essential as VIP, that’s super normal. But tell me why now, even adding music requires VIP. That’s like one of the most basic features of any editing apps. Are you serious? ### 3/5 — Meh! *2026-08-14, version 19.0.0* CapCut is good but it just runs so slow and EVERYTHING is premium. But other than that the app is super easy to use and it’s very good for beginner editors, I’ve been editing on CapCut for over 3-4 years and it’s the best app I’ve used so far. ### 3/5 — Ehhhhh *2026-08-14, version 19.0.0* It’s good snd it’s nice to use but it has a bunch of bugs and not to mention a lot of animation things use the pro feature meaing it’s pretty difficult for people who don’t have that kind of money to make cool fancy edits. Honestly I think it’s fine. I give it a 6.5/10 ### 4/5 — Likes and favorites deleted *2026-08-14, version 19.0.0* I like new update from today but all of my likes and favorites got deleted and it made me so mad and I don’t know what happened to them I don’t know if the update deleted all of them or if there’s just a bug in the app ### 3/5 — Why just why *2026-08-14, version 19.0.0* Why is there so many inappropriate things on CapCut ### 2/5 — Good but-… *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* It’s good for editing especially as a beginner! It’s just- like- why is everyone pro? Like why does everything cost money? ### 2/5 — can’t even consider it free anymore *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* hard to recommend this app when literally everything is being locked behind a subscription ### 4/5 — It is good *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* It is good but sometimes it lags and like when u wanna record like dances at first when u record u won’t hear the sound and u have to go and do it again to like know where u are at and what is the song and blah blah blah but overall it flipping good edits on there and there is a lot of me on there I mean lamien yamal té amo world cupo y que fue ### 4/5 — Bella *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* Cupcut help me to make Roblox vid so thank ### 4/5 — Audio *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* CapCut allows me to add as much audio as I can, but it won’t let me use more than one audio in a video. It shows the audio is too long and when I submit it, the audio is muted. Please fix. ### 3/5 — pretty good *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* i love cap cut but there are 2 bad things. 1.it takes up tons of storage so i have to delete it every few months ago get rid of storage.2.it gives you some very weird videos sometimes and reporting it doesnt help. ### 3/5 — AM might be better *2026-08-13, version 19.0.0* I need everyone else to listen to this.
