Why is my CapCut Template Not Showing?

Below are the possible reasons why your CapCut templates might not be showing:

Unstable or Weak Network Connection

As far as making use of the CapCut and TikTok apps concurrently is concerned, you cannot do so without a good internet source.

CapCut templates will not be displayed on your TikTok account if you do not have access to a good and stable network connection.

Unsuccessful TikTok to CapCut Connectivity

If your TikTok is not successfully linked to your CapCut, you are likely to have issues with the usage of the two apps.

You may see the TikTok template option, but you will not have access to the page even if you click the option.

So, not installing and connecting your CapCut and TikTok is a major reason why your CapCut templates are not showing on your TikTok.

Outdated CapCut App

The outdated CapCut app is likely to have compatibility issues with your mobile device and Synchronization issues as well.

This is because outdated apps are susceptible to bugs and cannot sustain optimum performance.

Location Compatibility

Not all locations permit the use of CapCut and TikTok.

Therefore, if you are staying where there’s a ban or a form of restriction on either of the apps, especially CapCut, then you are not going to enjoy the perks that come with using the app, like making use of CapCut templates for creating your TikTok videos.

Scrolling Wrongly

Sometimes, CapCut/TikTok users make the mistake of checking for CapCut templates from the wrong place.

If you check for your CapCut templates from those videos that have been imported to the camera roll instead of from CapCut, even though you will find the videos, you will not be able to use them as a template on TikTok because the option will be missing.

While there are other reasons why you may be having difficulties accessing CapCut templates on TikTok, the ones explained above are the most common.

To cater to this problem, there are suggested fixes explained as you read further.
