Frequently asked questions
How do I add subtitles to a video without downloading software?
Most social media platforms offer free subtitling software you can use without downloading anything extra. However, these features often struggle with complex content, background noise, or specific languages.
To get more accurate captions, use an AI text and speech recognition tool like Captions’ subtitle generator. Our tool can analyze audio and automatically generate subtitles in another language with just a few clicks.
Can I generate subtitles in multiple languages at once?
Captions can create subtitles in multiple languages, but not all at once. Once you finish adding text in one language, you can export the video and generate subtitles in a different language.
Alternatively, you can add subtitles in a second language to the same video. When including captions for two or more languages in a video, make sure to leave enough space for the text to fit at the bottom of the screen. This ensures that the subtitles won’t cover the visuals on screen and prevent viewers from enjoying your content.
What type of video ads can I make with Captions?
You can create various video ads with Captions’ features. Available ad types include:
- Captioned ads with text in the same language as the one spoken in the video.
- Translated ads with subtitles written in a language different from the one spoken in the video.
- AI-generated ads created by AI that feature avatars or lifelike clones.
- Dubbed ads that replace the original audio with translated dialogue.
- Social media ads designed for specific platforms, like TikTok, YouTube, or Instagram.

Why should I use subtitles in my videos?

- Improved accessibility — Adding subtitles makes content available to people who speak a different language than the one used in the video. They also make content more accessible to viewers with hearing difficulties and people who frequently watch videos without audio.
- Clarifies your message — Subtitles may help people retain your video’s message, as reading text encourages viewers to pay close attention.
- Boosts content’s visibility — Search engines and social media use subtitles to understand your videos and show them to interested audiences.
How can subtitles help my videos reach more people?
By adding text to videos, you make it easier for viewers with comprehension or hearing issues to understand your content.
This increase in accessibility allows more people to engage with your content, increasing your chances of getting more views and going viral. More engagement leads to more likes, comments, and shares, and these metrics help platforms decide which content to promote.
