CapCut

CapCut brings video editing tools to Android for people making social posts, personal videos, or more detailed edits. Developed by Bytedance Pte. Ltd., it combines clip editing with text, audio, effects, and tools such as automatic captions and background removal. You can start by arranging a few clips, then use its multi-track timeline and animation controls when a project needs more precise adjustments.

Arrange clips and control the pace

CapCut lets you shorten, split, and combine clips, with a multi-track timeline for arranging and previewing your edit. Transitions connect clips, while freeze frames let you hold a particular moment on screen. Zoom animations offer another way to draw attention within a shot.

Speed controls range from 0.1x to 100x, and speed curves let you vary the pace within a clip. For slow-motion editing, optical flow works alongside the speed curve tool. Keyframe animation provides control over how settings change through a video.

Build captions, text, and sound into your video

Automatic captions recognize speech and turn it into subtitles. You can also place subtitles directly on the timeline, adjust them, and reposition them. Text tools include different fonts, styles, and templates, with support for importing fonts stored locally.

Text-to-speech offers multiple languages and voices. For the soundtrack, CapCut includes music and sound effects, plus audio extraction from video files. These tools give you options for combining spoken content, on-screen wording, and background sound in the same project.

Refine footage and choose export settings

Chroma key removes selected colors, while automatic background removal provides another way to separate a subject from its surroundings. Motion tracking and stabilization are also available. Filters and effects include options such as Glitch, Blur, and 3D, alongside brightness and contrast adjustments.

Export resolution is customizable, with support for 4K at 60fps and smart HDR. You can change the video format and share creations on platforms including TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook. Choose export settings to suit where you intend to share the finished video.

Prepare your Android device before installing

CapCut is for Android. Before installing an APK, review the permissions it requests and consider whether they fit the editing tasks you plan to perform. Keep backups of important source videos and project material before replacing an existing installation.

If Android asks you to allow installation from your browser or file manager, check that prompt carefully. Turn that permission off again afterward if you no longer need it.
