Currently, only the CapCut Mobile App (iOS and Android) supports linking or unlinking an email address. The Desktop (PC) and Web versions do not provide this functionality—they can only display your current account info but cannot modify login methods. Below are the correct steps for the mobile app only:
✅ CapCut Mobile App (iOS / Android)
To Link an Email:
- 1
- Open the CapCut app. 2
- Tap the gear icon (⚙️) in the top-right corner to open Settings.
- 3
- Select "Manage Account".
- 4
- Enter a valid email address.
- 5
- Check your inbox for a verification code from CapCut and enter the code in the app to complete the linking.
To Unlink or Change Your Email:
- CapCut requires at least one active login method at all times.
- If email is your only login method, you must first add another (e.g., phone number, Apple, Google, or TikTok) before removing it.
- Once an alternative is active:
- a. Go back to "Manage Account".
- b. Tap "Email" to verify or unlink the account.
c. Confirm with password or verification as prompted.
📍 Note: You cannot unlink your email if it's the sole way to access your account. Always ensure a backup login method is in place.
❌ CapCut Desktop (Windows / macOS)
Please note that some account functions are limited on the desktop version:
- Cannot link or unlink email.
- You can view your account email (if already linked via mobile), but no editing options are available.
- All account security changes must be done in the mobile app.

❌ CapCut Web (CapCut Online)
Please note that account management options are limited to the web version:
- Does not support email linking/unlinking.
- The website may show your current email, but any attempt to manage login methods will redirect you to use the CapCut mobile app.
📍 Tip: Always manage your CapCut account settings—including email, password, and linked logins—through the official CapCut app on your phone. This ensures full access and compliance with security policies.
Thank you for keeping your account secure!
