How to fix CapCut not working
CapCut is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach capcut.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Force quit and reopen
Force quit it. On iPhone, swipe up from the bottom edge, pause, then swipe the app card off the screen; on Android, open recent apps and swipe it away, which clears a stuck render or upload. Launch it again and try the same edit or export.
Switch networks and turn off VPN
If templates or cloud sync fail, toggle Airplane Mode on for ten seconds and then off. Connect to a different Wi-Fi network or use cellular data. Turn off any VPN because it can block the app's servers, then retry the action that failed.
Clear the app cache
On Android, open Settings, then Apps, then CapCut, then Storage & cache, and tap Clear cache. On iPhone, open the Me tab, tap the gear icon, then tap Clear cache. This removes temporary files from failed exports or imports without deleting your drafts.
Update or reinstall the app
Update it first. Open the App Store or Google Play, go to your updates list, and install any new version because old builds can fail on export or login. If that fails, back up your drafts, then delete and reinstall the app; if you use the desktop version, uninstall it from system settings and get the current installer from the CapCut help centre.
While CapCut is down: what to use instead
- CapCut desktop or web editor If the phone app keeps crashing or stalls on export, try the Windows or Mac version or the editor in your browser, because a fault in one version sometimes leaves the others working.
- TikTok's built-in editor For a quick clip going straight to TikTok, you can trim, add text and pick a sound there without another app.
- InShot On a phone, InShot handles the everyday jobs like cutting, speed changes and text over the clip, though your CapCut drafts and templates won't come with you.
- iMovie or Clipchamp Many Apple devices already have iMovie and many Windows 11 PCs have Clipchamp, so a simple edit needs no new install.
Fix CapCut on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
CapCut on Windows
- Fix
- Clear the CapCut desktop app cache in the settings menu or update your GPU drivers. If using the web version, try clearing your browser cache or disabling hardware acceleration.
- Check
- Check if the CapCut web editor loads in your browser or if the desktop app shows network connection errors. You can also check CapCut's official social media for outage reports.

- Fix
- Clear CapCut's cache files in the app's preferences or reinstall the application from the Mac App Store. Ensure your macOS is updated to prevent compatibility issues during video rendering.
- Check
- Verify if the CapCut web editor is accessible and check if the desktop app displays 'network anomaly' errors. Monitor community forums to see if other Mac users are experiencing similar issues.

- Fix
- Clear CapCut's app cache and data in your device settings, or update it to the latest version via the Google Play Store. If issues persist, try reinstalling the app or switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data.
- Check
- Check if the CapCut app fails to load templates or shows connection timeout errors on startup. You can also check recent Google Play Store reviews for reports of similar issues.
CapCut on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Offload and reinstall CapCut from the App Store to clear temporary files while preserving your project drafts. Ensure your device has enough free storage space and a stable internet connection.
- Check
- Look for persistent loading wheels or export failures within the CapCut iOS app. Check the App Store for recent updates or user reviews indicating a widespread outage.
Problems at the same time as CapCut

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

What happens when CapCut goes down
CapCut is a video editing app for phones and desktops, and it has templates, captions, effects, and export tools that creators, students, editors, and small teams use every day. An outage interrupts editing, template loading, project loading, and export.
Templates often go first. The feed loads, but you tap a template and get a blank screen or a network error. On phones, the app may hang on the splash screen or fail to sign in, while desktop projects can open but preview playback stutters and export stalls at the processing step. Saved projects may fail to load, and problems tend to be partial and regional; you can still trim clips while export or template loading stays broken, and reports can cluster by country or by platform.

How we track CapCut
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for CapCut, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for CapCut, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. CapCut doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
