Apart from the fact that now 85% of everything the app has to offer is under the “pro” limit, the app itself doesn’t work the way it used to. It freezes, crashes and is just insanely frustrating. I have used capcut for years and i know it used to preform extremely well, but recently it has become really annoying and just terrible to use. The text feature is so hard to use because the screen does this thing where it folds in on itself and doesn’t let you see the options for the font/ stroke, animation etc, but also doesn’t allow for you to see the project your working on. It also cuts and keeps jumping to cut-in-half windows before almost immediatly freezing. Writing is also really frustrating because you cant write more than two words before the thing completely stops responding. I have literally had to quit the app several times a minute just to write half a scene. Its terrible and so so so frustrating. I have honestly considered crying over this app because it feels like its died a long time ago. I mourn the lost features, the easiness it used to operate on and the overall title it has since lost. Capcut used to be an amazing app, great for beginners, pros, novices and intermediate people looking to edit video, but now its complete garbage. It doesnt matter if you pay the whole insane amount of money for pro or if you decide to use it as is, the interface has so many bugs an defects and issues its impossible to work with. DEVELOPERS FIX YOUR APP.

This app used to be one of the best editing apps that everyone could use without payin money, everything was free amd we had no limits in what we could create but recently the pro features started to come more and more aggressive because first there was just one pro version that barely cost anything then it came the second version with the pro features where half of the apps most interesting effects and stuff now cost money, then this third version, u have different plans where the cheapest one is actually very expensive for others, then this third second one even worse and the last one for an year is also worse, i understand your company needs money to make the app better but you went too far wih that, people lost interest because of you since they only used this app beacuse it was free and actually fun Now you are not gaining, you are loosing because instead of you getting money it should be you making people happy by giving them an app that does not require payments for literally everything, thanks for understanding

I used to love CapCut. Three years ago, it was hands-down the best free mobile video editor out there — smooth, intuitive, full of creative tools, and perfect for both beginners and pros. It was the app that made short-form editing accessible to everyone.But now? It’s a corporate disaster.Every update seems to strip away what made CapCut special.Now you’re constantly slammed into paywalls, subscription pop-ups, and “Pro” locks on even the most basic features — transitions, filters, export resolutions, you name it. The app feels less like a creative tool and more like a trap designed to milk micro-transactions.Even worse, the once-clean interface is now cluttered with ads, banners, and unnecessary AI gimmicks that slow down editing and eat up storage. The app used to run flawlessly; now it lags, crashes, and demands login verification just to export a simple clip.And let’s talk about the “free” version — it’s practically unusable. If you don’t pay, expect:•Watermarks appearing out of nowhere•Limited export options•Missing effects that used to be free•Random bugs and forced updates that break old projectsCapCut went from a creator’s best friend to a corporate cash-grab, exploiting the very community that made it popular in the first place.If you’re looking for alternatives, I strongly recommend VN Video Editor, Kdenlive, or Shotcut — they respect your time, your work, and most importantly, your freedom.CapCut’s slogan should honestly be:“Create freely — until we decide it’s premium.”

I’ve been using CapCut Pro for a while now, but unfortunately, my experience has been extremely frustrating. The app is full of bugs, making the editing process unnecessarily difficult.One of the biggest issues is the subtitle synchronization. It doesn’t sync properly, and when I try to adjust it manually, it gets even worse. Additionally, it doesn’t recognize diacritics in other languages, such as Romanian, which is a major inconvenience.Another frustrating issue is that whenever I try to enhance video quality, the app freezes. The same thing happens when I try to improve audio quality – it just stops working. I’ve even had situations where I saved my project, only to find that parts of my subtitles had disappeared. This is unacceptable, especially considering that I’m paying for the Pro version.Editing takes way longer than it should because the app crashes so often. Even something as simple as choosing the first frame for my video thumbnail can cause it to freeze. It’s beyond frustrating to deal with such an unreliable app when I’m actually paying for it.At this point, I’m seriously considering switching to another video editing app that is more stable and actually worth the money. I expected much better from CapCut, but instead, it has only caused me endless frustration.
