Creating captions

Styling captions
Detail makes it easy to personalize your captions, offering plenty of customization options:
Drag and Drop: Long press and drag captions to move them anywhere in your video.
Styling Options: Pick from a variety of font styles that fit your branding, and fine-tune them by choosing any color from a wide palette.
Animation: Add subtle animations to your captions to help draw attention and reinforce your message.
Resizing and Rotation: Quickly resize captions by pinching to increase or decrease font size, and use pinch rotation to adjust the angle for more creative flexibility.
Place Captions Behind You: Make captions appear behind you by clicking on the masking button 👥, placing the text behind the subject to create a more dynamic visual effect.
Caption editing
To edit the autogenerated captions, click the pencil ✏️ icon to open the caption editor. From there, you can modify the caption text and press Done to save your changes.
Adding automatic captions in different languages
In the Settings (Library → Settings) you can change the language for transcripts and captions. You can use English (default), or pick one of the languages that are available in iOS. You can add additional languages in your iOS Settings in Settings / General / Language & Region.
Languages that support Dictation (speech to text) will be listed in Settings / General / Keyboards / Dictation Languages.
After you've added a new language, it can take a few hours before the language will be available on your device and unfortunately not all languages are available.
Please send us a quick note to [email protected] if your language is not supported, to help us prioritize the support for future languages.
