Frequently asked questions
Can I install an older version of CapCut over the new one?
No. Android blocks installing an older version over a newer one. You have to uninstall first, which deletes local drafts.
Do old CapCut versions still work?
Very old versions often lose templates, effects, login and music because CapCut's servers change. Recent older versions usually work, but with fewer features.
Where can I get an older CapCut APK safely?
CapCut doesn't publish an official archive. If you must, use a well-known APK archive that checks the original developer signature, and confirm the package is com.lemon.lvoverseas.
How do I stop CapCut from auto-updating?
In Google Play, open CapCut's page, tap the ⋮ menu and turn off Enable auto update.
