CapCut: templates, effects and 771 megabytes
Rated 4.6 across 1.12 million reviews. Enormous template library and the heaviest editor here — nearly a gigabyte before your first clip.
CapCut answers a question other editors do not: what if you do not want to edit at all.
Pick a template, drop clips in, and the cuts, transitions and beat-matching happen for you. 1,119,256 ratings at 4.6.
Where it wins
Templates that match what is trending. The library tracks current formats closely, and reproducing a look you saw takes minutes rather than skill.
Auto-captions that are usable without heavy correction.
What to weigh
771 MB — the heaviest app in this category by a wide margin, and more than three times InShot.
Templates make your video look like other videos. That is the point, and it is also the ceiling.
Ownership. CapCut is made by ByteDance, and organisations with policies about that should check them before installing it on a work device.
