If using an Android with Google Play, tap on the top search bar labeled, ‘Google Play’ and type in ‘CapCut. ’ In your search results, tap on the app titled ‘CapCut - Video Editor. ’

You will only need to complete this step the first time you open the app!

For now, you are just choosing one video clip. We’ll guide you through adding more clips in a later step.

Trimming means that the part of your clip that used to be between the thick white line and the adjusted playhead will be completely cut out. To trim the end of your video, perform this step on the right side. Drag the timeline to the place you want the video to end (indicated by the playhead). Then tap on the clip and drag the thick white line on the right to meet the playhead.

If you want to switch around the chronological order of your clips, simply press, hold, and drag a clip in the timeline and to your desired location (i. e. placing the new clip to the left of your old clip to make it play first).

This can be helpful if you want to place a separate clip in the middle of one. Split the original clip where you want the other one to go, then use the Join tool to add a new video. Drag this new clip in between the split you just created!

Something to keep in mind when slowing down a clip is that it may affect the quality of your video, depending on the frame rate of your original clip. We suggest making sure that your video is 60fps or higher to ensure a high-quality final result.

Anything below 1. 0x will slow it down, and anything above 1. 0x will speed it up.

To create a custom curve, tap on “Custom” and manipulate the yellow line by dragging each of the four dots up or down. Placing a dot higher (causing the curve to go up) will speed up that section of the clip, and placing it lower (guiding the curve down) will slow it down. Tap on the bottom right check mark when you’re done.

Don’t be shy to test out lots of different options until you find the one that’s just right!

CapCut lets you move these effects around in the timeline to change their duration and placement. Simply tap on it in the timeline and manipulate it as you would a clip.

To change the placement, tap on the text in the preview panel and drag it to your desired location.

CapCut lets you change the placement and size of stickers. Tap on it in the preview panel, and then drag it around and/or pinch it with two fingers.
