So, you're ready to cancel CapCut Pro. Maybe you just needed it for one project, or maybe you're tired of seeing that monthly charge for an app you barely use. CapCut, launched by ByteDance in 2020, is a powerhouse for making those viral TikToks and Reels, especially with all the chatter around the latest 'photo dump' trends. But a Pro subscription can cost you anywhere from $7.99 to $74.99, and you could save up to $75 a year by canceling. This guide will walk you through canceling on iOS, Android, and Desktop, so you can stop the charges without the headache.
How to Cancel Capcut Pro Subscription on iOS
Canceling on an iPhone or iPad is a classic runaround. You won't do it in the CapCut app. Instead, you have to dig into your Apple account settings. It's a common trick to make you forget where the cancel button is.
1 Open Your Settings
First, open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad. It's the gray gear icon. Don't look in the CapCut app itself, they hide it in here.
2 Tap Your Apple ID
Tap on your name and Apple ID at the very top of the screen.
3 Go to Subscriptions
Find and tap on Subscriptions. You might have to scroll a bit to find it.
4 Find CapCut
Look for CapCut in your list of active subscriptions and tap on it. If you don't see it, you might have subscribed on another platform.
5 Tap Cancel Subscription
Tap the big red Cancel Subscription button. You'll have to confirm it one more time. That's it. Annoying, but done.
How to Cancel Capcut Pro Subscription on Android
For Android users, the process is thankfully a bit more straightforward, but it's still buried in the Google Play Store settings, not the CapCut app itself. Just a few taps and you're free.
1 Open the Play Store
Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
2 Tap Your Profile Icon
Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner of the screen.
3 Navigate to Subscriptions
From the menu, select Payments & subscriptions. Then tap on Subscriptions.
4 Select CapCut
Find CapCut in the list of your subscriptions and tap on it to manage it.
5 Confirm Cancellation
Tap Cancel subscription at the bottom and follow the prompts. Google will ask why you're leaving, but you can just skip it.
How to Cancel Capcut Pro Subscription on Desktop
Canceling on a desktop feels like it should be easy, but sometimes it's the most confusing. As of early 2024, this method works, but users report the website can be a bit buggy. Weirdly, it seems more reliable than trying to cancel through the desktop app itself.
1 Log In to CapCut's Website
Go to the official CapCut website (capcut.com) and log into your account. Make sure you're using the same login info you used to subscribe.
2 Find Your Account Settings
Once you're logged in, find your profile icon or name, usually in the top-right corner. Click it and look for a section called Manage subscription, Account Settings, or something similar.
3 Locate the Cancel Option
Inside your account area, you should see your CapCut Pro plan details. There should be an option to Cancel or Manage your plan. Click it. I had to refresh the page once because the button didn't load the first time, which was super annoying.
4 Confirm the Cancellation
Follow the final steps to confirm the cancellation. They might offer you a discount to stay. Just ignore it and confirm you want to cancel.
Before you hit cancel, know this. You won't get a refund for the current billing period, even if you cancel a day after it renews. That's just how it is. Your Pro access will continue until the end of your paid term. Also, any videos or assets you have stored in CapCut's cloud will likely be deleted or become inaccessible once your Pro subscription ends, so make sure to download anything important first.
