Subtitles that always show
Burned-in subtitles are part of the picture. They appear on Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp and any player, with no subtitle file to keep beside the video, and most people watch social videos without sound.
Written the way your language is written
Arabic, Persian, Hebrew and Urdu read right to left with their letters joined, and Chinese, Japanese and Thai wrap correctly with no spaces. Long lines wrap to fit the picture, and the fonts come from this site.
Check and correct before you burn
Every subtitle from your file appears in a list you can edit: fix a word, change a time, add or remove a line. The preview shows the result on your video as you go.
Questions about Add subtitles
Is my video uploaded?
No. The subtitles are drawn on each frame in your browser tab. Nothing is sent to a server.
Which subtitle files can I use?
SRT and WebVTT. Formatting such as italics is left out, and all the text gets the style you choose.
Can I turn the subtitles off later?
No. Burned-in subtitles are part of the picture, so keep your original video. For subtitles viewers can switch off, upload the SRT file to the video site next to your video.
Can it make subtitles from speech?
Not in this tool. The video editor makes subtitles from speech on your device, and you can save them as an SRT file to use here.
Does the sound change?
No. The sound is copied as it is whenever the file allows it. The picture is encoded again, at a high quality.
