If you are a content creator who regularly publishes videos on various social media platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram, there are many benefits to adding captions to your videos. These benefits include increased audience engagement and views, as most people watch videos on mute. Therefore, captions that appear in videos will attract viewers. On the other hand, it will also help people with hearing impairments understand and follow the videos you publish.
To add captions to your videos before publishing them on social media platforms, you can use one of the following applications:
1- Voicella Application:
Voicella is a video editing application that features speech recognition and uses algorithms to convert speech to text and audio to text. It can automatically generate captions for videos in most languages, as it supports over 90 languages.
After uploading the video to the application and automatically generating captions, you can make any necessary edits. You can click on individual lines of text to move words up or down, change the text design, font, color, and alignment.
The Voicella app is available to Android users in the Google Store for free with the ability to subscribe within the app.
2- Zeemo App:
