Subtitles on iPhone

Videos shot on iPhones have gained significant popularity over the years. The combination of accessibility, convenience, high-quality output, and integration with social media platforms has contributed to their popularity. iPhones have become a common choice for individuals, influencers, and content creators to capture and share videos with a wide audience.

Adding subtitles or captions has also become quite common. While they may not be necessary for every video, they make viewing more accessible, inclusive, understandable, and engaging for a wider range of viewers. However, there is no built-in feature to add subtitles to a video on an iPhone, so users have to use various third-party apps available on the App Store or alternative options.

Our tool provides an option to add captions to an iPhone video quickly and personalize their look — all without the need to download an app to do it.
