There are several options for adding subtitles to a video, including Auto-captioning or manually creating the text. Here are some steps you can take to add subtitles to your TikTok video. Before you get started, you should know a few things about TikTok.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Auto-captioning\"><\/span>Auto-captioning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>TikTok will soon be rolling out automatic captions for videos. After you record a video, you can simply select &#8220;Auto captions&#8221; from the editing page. TikTok is trying to make the platform more accessible for everyone, and this feature can help in a number of situations where listening to audio is an inconvenient or difficult task. If you want to use auto captioning for TikTok videos, learn more from the TikTok Help Center.<\/p>\n<p>You can enable auto-captioning for videos on your TikTok profile, and you can even edit the text. If you don&#8217;t want auto-captioning, you can simply turn it off for videos that are not appropriate for your audience. The text will appear below your video as a text overlay, and viewers can turn off auto captions if they don&#8217;t want to see it.<\/p>\n<p>The captioning process on TikTok is not as difficult as it may seem. It&#8217;s easy to add captions to your videos if you&#8217;re using the app on a computer. However, external captions are the best option for accessibility purposes. You can get high-quality captions for your videos with Verbit, a service that boasts a high turnaround time. It&#8217;s also free, so you can upload as many videos as you want.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manually_creating_subtitles\"><\/span>Manually creating subtitles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Rather than use the built-in subtitle generator on TikTok, you can create your own custom subtitles with the program. Subtitles generated by TikTok are not always accurate. However, there are several ways to manually edit subtitles on your videos. You can do this by selecting the subtitle option in the final uploading page. Then, you can manually edit each subtitle, choosing the size and positioning of the text.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few ways to manually create captions for your videos on TikTok. You can use the Type Studio online video editor to create subtitles. The software supports more than 30 languages, which means you can create captions in various languages. You can also use the program to create your own TikTok videos with unique captions. Signing up for Type Studio takes less than a minute and is free.<\/p>\n<p>With the help of Adobe Express, you can make your subtitles look as beautiful as possible. You can adjust the font, size, and background color. And you can choose whether you want subtitles with text shadow or full background. By doing this, you can easily share your vision with your audience. Once you have created the subtitles, you can start uploading them to TikTok. There are many advantages to using this program, including its ease of use and versatility.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Editing_the_captions_generated_by_TikTok\"><\/span>Editing the captions generated by TikTok<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whether you want to add your own text to your videos or simply want to make them look better, there are ways to edit the captions that are automatically generated by TikTok. There are a variety of options available for captioning videos on the service, including the ability to add a logo or branding to your video. The platform also recently added an auto-generated caption feature. To turn this feature off, simply choose &#8220;disable auto-generated captions&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>You can enable auto-captions on your videos for accessibility reasons. These captions automatically generate subtitles so that viewers can read and hear what is being said. The feature can be turned on and off by going to the editing page of your TikTok video and selecting the option &#8220;Auto Captions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not a fan of auto-generated captions, you can turn them off in the settings menu of the TikTok app. When a video is tagged with auto-generated captions, you can turn them off to remove distracting text. Auto-generated captions are available only for videos with spoken words. Background music and video effects cannot be edited with auto-generated captions.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"370\" height=\"207\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/70DByWoaSmI\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Add Subtitles to a TikTok Video If you are trying to add subtitles to a video, you&#8217;ve probably wondered how to do it.
