Alma vs CapCut for Promoting an App

September 30, 2026 · 5 min read

Use both only after the daily post exists. Until then, Alma is the promotion tool and CapCut is optional.

Alma

Text slideshows and carousels that explain the app and end on the install. Written from your link, scheduled out. You do not film. $29/month for 500 slides, or $199/month with no cap.

CapCut

CapCut edits short video: captions, cuts, a screen recording of the app. It is the right tool when you need motion. It is a slow way to publish every day if each post is a timeline.

Recommendation

Alma for the posts that run all week. CapCut when one of those posts needs a follow-up video of the screen. Do not start with video and call it a marketing system. You will ship two clips and stop.
