This is the first time I have ever edited and I used your program. Kapwing is the absolute best editing program ever! I am defiantly going to continue using it. I am already editing videos, thanks for making this website. It really helps me edit. Thank You!

[DJWolfie_MegaMixer]

I enjoy using Kapwing for my edits, both visual and audio each project comes out just right in full edits. I recommend it for any editor.

This is very helpful as I will be working on my Recap of 2021 tonight (Like a YT Rewind)

I love your editor but i hate that it leaves a mark on your video that says kapwing

[secretstoasafestressfreetr]

Thx for this I just started using kapwing

[jillsfindings]

This is so helpful!! Thank you!! I just started using Kapwing and I am at the stage where I'm learning everything at once, including how to organize my video. I am a total mess. I won't give up tho. There are three hacks that will get me closer to finishing my first video. Thank you.

I wish they uploaded this 4 hours ago because I spent 30 minutes editing a video, worst of all the edits I made didn’t come through only the music elements

[audunjemtland]

Great tutorial. Is there a way to adjust speed on the animation elements that DON'T have speed as an option? I thought speed could be adjusted regardless

[therexagon]

im having an issue where, if i upload a file thats longer than 7 mins, then crop it to just a few seconds, it still thinks its longer than 7 mins and wont let me export

[LixifyProd]

This editor is so amazing because it doesn't have watermarks unlike Wondershare filmora. I'm a young editor and I want a money that makes by myself. Btw, is there a anime template in it?

[theknownguy]

Gotta say I love this software because there are no bs watermarks. Like Filmora's takes up half the screen for the whole vid. And this is also super easy to use. 100% suggest.

Edit: yeah it’s not really that good anymore since instead of any video under 3 minutes is without watermark it’s now only 3 videos without watermark. Also the premium is insanely expensive compared to other software so imo it’s maybe a 60%

[TheInnerCircleRecords]

You app helped me gain these subs i deleted all my vid and trying to be a good youtuber and ill be using kapwing!

[OutdoorswithBailey]

listen i would like this video times but i can only like it one tysm i love this now

[noviciousofficial]

Good shit, homie. More tutorials, please!

[claireelizabethbegbie]

Hi, Kapwing is a really great program! I'm just wondering if it's possible to change a soundtrack element, i.e. replace a short sound bite with a longer one in the middle of a longer project without everything shifting out of place. Thank you!

[memolocat]

kapwing i was wondering if u can add more effects on the image like the other bc their edit is cool and smooth but i want to try but its only a few effects like hue rotate or something bc i want like capcut and i cant use capcut bc its has watermark and suck only the kapwing i can use for editing bc the other has trial like that. that's why pls kapwing... notice this

Quick tip for new, new users:
If you have to scroll down the bar a little, make sure you click on some part of your project so the box is lined in yellow. It can be extremely sensitive. And it can jump vertically and horizontally at once. Very annoying. But easy to avoid. You'll know what I'm talking about if you've done this.
