CapCut Social Sharing Options
CapCut social sharing options are designed such that you can directly upload your videos to different platforms after you edit them on CapCut.

The social sharing options allow you to upload content to:
Instant Messaging Apps
Instant messaging apps include platforms like WhatsApp or WeChat. They are often overlooked as avenues where you can share content. However, they are fast becoming convenient ways for businesses to connect with clients, especially since innovations like WhatsApp status and WhatsApp for business have come into play.
Once you edit your video on CapCut:
- Click on the ‘Export’ option
- Allow the video to upload
- Select the instant messaging app you would like to share the video on
