by

Instagram stories now has 500M daily active users. But many viewers skip stories if they can’t turn up their phone’s volume 🔊Caption This solves this problem by creating videos with live closed-captions. Just record a video or load it from your camera roll, and Caption This will add captions that are perfectly synced to your speech. 🎉

Love it! It really increases engagement, especially for Instagram stories!

Pros:

Easy to use! Record videos in the app or upload. It auto-adds captions that you can easily edit/style. Also supports landscape vids!

Cons:

It’s only on iOS right now, needs an android version :)

Thanks for the review! An Android version will hopefully be coming soon! The app is built with React Native so a cross-platform app is definitely something I have in mid.

I was about to buy it and review it on my YouTube channel. But the reviews are already discouraging in the App Store. Hopefully you have plans to improve the app. When that happens I’d be happy to buy it and review it.

@scottwyden hey Scott! There were a few bugs in one of the first releases of the app, but those have since been fixed. Send me a DM and I'd be happy to get you a promo code to try the app out for free.

I make lots of edu videos, so caps are very useful.

Pros:

Very good app, would like to have a bigger font.

Cons:

When I save the video with captions, the background goes missing, so there's no background support for the caps. It just disappears.

I wish there was more built-in support for this app. I’m trying to caption some videos from my camera roll, and every time the screen says “100%, finishing up”, it kicks me back to the camera roll, with no captioned video. How do I fix this?

Very disappointed with this app. It takes a long time to upload a 5 min video and even longer to generate subtitles. I downloaded the app an hour and a half ago and still waiting for the subtitles to be generated - the screen has been showing “almost ready” for the past 45 minutes (and this is a 5 min video). Do not waste your money on this app.
