What Changes After the Free Trial Ends?

When these features were first launched, they were offered as part of a limited-time free trial, allowing users to:

  • Try out new editing capabilities
  • Export videos using premium tools at no cost
  • Explore creative possibilities before committing

Once the trial period concluded, these features were moved into the Pro subscription tier, which is why payment is now required to continue using them.

How to Keep Using These Features

To regain full access, you can subscribe to CapCut Pro. With a Pro plan, you'll not only unlock the features you were using during the trial, but also gain:

  • Access to a wider range of premium materials and templates
  • Advanced AI-powered editing tools
  • A more flexible and professional editing experience

Why This Happens

Transitioning features from free trials to paid access helps support the ongoing development and maintenance of high-quality tools within CapCut. It also ensures that users who rely on these advanced features can enjoy a more stable and continuously improving experience.

We understand this change may feel inconvenient, and we sincerely apologize for any disruption it may cause. Thank you for your understanding and continued support as CapCut evolves to provide better tools and services for creators.
