CapScribe turns speech into editable captions and writes them into your video on your iPhone. Import a video or audio file, transcribe it, correct the words and timing, choose a style, and export. Already have captions? Pair a video directly with an SRT or VTT file and skip transcription. You can also send media to CapScribe from the Share menu in Photos or Files. CREATE AND EDIT • Transcribe imported video and audio on your device • Keep multiple local video and audio projects, then search, rename, duplicate, reopen, or delete them • Burn styled captions into the exported video • Choose from eight presets or customize font design, alignment, colors, outline, background, corners, and shadow • Add a clean Pop or Rise entrance to captions, or keep motion off • Reframe output for the original ratio, 9:16, 4:5, 1:1, or 16:9 • Preview at 0.5×–2× speed and loop the current caption while editing • Enter exact timecodes, smart-split a caption, or safely fix empty and overlong captions in one step • Review low-confidence, fast, overlong, and empty captions in one place • Use the explainable on-device Publish Readiness score to find deterministic caption issues before watching the final cut • Reuse an on-device term dictionary for names and commonly misheard words • Undo and redo edits, or find and replace across original text and translations TRANSLATE AND EXPORT • Translate captions with Apple's system Translation framework • Switch between original, translated, and bilingual captions • Batch-caption up to 10 videos at a time • Export original, translated, or bilingual SRT, VTT, and TXT files separately or as one package • Preview the finished video, compare source-to-output resolution, and check expected duration, frame rate, audio, and file size before sharing FREE PREVIEW AND FULL VERSION Try the complete workflow at no charge. For longer media, the free preview processes the first 90 seconds of each video or the first 10 minutes of audio. A one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase removes those free preview limits. There is no subscription or watermark; actual processing capacity depends on your device and media. PRIVACY CapScribe processes your media and transcripts on your iPhone and does not upload them to the developer. Projects stay in the app's local storage. iOS may download Apple speech or translation language resources when first needed. Purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. REQUIREMENTS iPhone with iOS 26 or later. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | CapScribe Full Version | $8.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 2.0 — 2026-09-02 • Avoid covering faces with an on-device placement suggestion, then fine-tune the caption position yourself • Save named Brand Styles for font design, colors, position, motion, and canvas; apply the current style across a batch • Review invalid, overlapping, and out-of-range caption timing before export, with safe fixes only where no caption text is lost • Open long projects faster with lightweight local project summaries and improved caption lookup • See captions immediately, with Style, Review, and Import directly at the top of the editor • Get safer translation and batch results: late or cancelled work can no longer overwrite a newer project state • Use clearer Back, Exit, Close, and Done actions, larger touch targets, and motion that respects Reduce Motion ### 1.9 — 2026-08-31 • Add Pop or Rise caption entrances, with matching editor preview and final video burn-in • See an explainable on-device Publish Readiness score for low-confidence, fast, overlong, and empty captions • Compare source-to-output resolution and check expected duration, frame rate, and audio before sharing • Enjoy a brighter new icon and a refreshed cyan, violet, pink, and orange interface • Navigate more clearly with direct Choose Again, Back to Queue, Done, and Share Extension Cancel actions • Keep multiple local projects and create a branded look with professional styles and social canvases, including 4:5 ### 1.8 — 2026-08-30 • Catch issues before export with a new Review Center for low-confidence, fast, overlong, and empty captions • Save your favorite caption style as the default for new projects • Build a reusable on-device term dictionary for names and commonly misheard words • Export Original, Translation, and Bilingual SRT, VTT, or TXT files—or share the complete caption package at once • Draft changes now save more promptly while editing, leaving the screen, or moving the app to the background • Safer large subtitle imports, smoother small-screen layouts, and improved accessibility ### 1.7 — 2026-08-30 • Resume your latest video draft with captions and style intact • Pair a video with SRT or VTT and skip transcription • Translate with Apple Translation, then use translated or bilingual captions • Review lower-confidence captions more easily • Undo, redo, and find and replace in the caption editor • Three new styles, social-ready canvas ratios, clearer playback controls, and improved accessibility • More reliable imports and exports, with storage checks and safer cleanup ### 1.6 — 2026-08-28 • A redesigned home screen and clearer editing controls • Correct portrait and landscape video preview proportions • Per-video caption styles in batch projects • Safer shared-file inbox and more reliable purchase restoration • Cancelable long-running tasks and lower memory use during 4K caption export ## More apps by 正平 孙 - [IPok: IP Risk & Leak Check](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/ipok-ip-risk-and-leak-check/id6781751697) - [MoGuan PDF – Offline & Private](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/moguan-pdf-offline-and-private/id6789107643) - [Koutuxia: Background Remover](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/koutuxia-background-remover/id6792638557) - [SizeCap: Compress Video to MB](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/sizecap-compress-video-to-mb/id6801584724) - [ClearTake: Audio Denoise](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/cleartake-audio-denoise/id6802951150) All apps by 正平 孙: https://appshunter.io/developer/6781502079 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
