I hope you are doing well. I recently received a notification stating that my account access has been restricted due to repeated unusual sign-ins from multiple devices. I want to clarify that these sign-ins were legitimate and made by me, as I often switch between devices for convenience.

Need assistance on lifting this restriction. any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

If you're seeing the message "CapCut account access has been restricted due to repeated unusual sign-ins from multiple devices", it usually means CapCut has temporarily locked your account for security reasons.

Why this happens:

  • Security Protocol: CapCut, monitors login activity. When it sees logins from different locations, devices, or at unusual frequencies, it can trigger a security alert.
  • Protection Against Unauthorized Access: This measure is primarily to prevent someone else from accessing your account if your login details have been compromised.
  • Potential Causes: This could happen if:
    • You legitimately logged in from several different phones, tablets, or computers in a short period.
    • You logged in from different geographical locations (e.g., while traveling or using a VPN).
    • Someone else attempted to access your account.

Here’s what you can do:

The standard process for regaining access to a restricted account usually involves verifying your identity.

  • Look for a Notification: When you try to log in, CapCut should display a message explaining the restriction and providing instructions on how to proceed. Read this message carefully.
  • Wait a Short Time (15–30 minutes)
    • Sometimes this is a temporary lock. Wait a little while and try again.
  • Use the Original Device or IP Address
    • Try logging in from the device or network (Wi-Fi) you usually use.
  • Reset Your Password
    • Go to the CapCut login page or app.
    • Choose "Forgot password" and follow the instructions to reset it.
    • This can help re-verify your identity and unlock access.
  • Follow the Verification Steps: CapCut app should guide you through a verification process. This generally involves:
    • Receiving a verification code via email or phone number linked to your account.
    • Answering security questions.
    • Providing information to confirm your identity.
  • Unlink Extra Devices (if you get access again)
    • If you regain access, check for any linked devices and log them out to prevent this from happening again.

Tips to Avoid This in the Future:

  • Avoid logging in from too many devices in a short time.

  • Don’t share your login with others.

  • Enable two-factor authentication (on TikTok/ByteDance account).

  • To prevent future restrictions, try to avoid rapid logins from many different places or devices if possible.

Once you regain access, it's a good idea to review your account security settings. Consider changing your password to a strong, unique one and enabling two-factor authentication.
