FAQ
Does Overtitle have ads?
Overtitle does not contain advertisements. It is a free application designed to provide a seamless subtitle experience without interruptions.
How does Overtitle sync subtitles?
Overtitle synchronizes subtitles by listening to the film's dialogue and matching it to the content of the subtitle file. This method focuses on matching words rather than precise timing, allowing for flexibility even if you join a movie late.
Can I use Overtitle with any movie language?
Automatic synchronization currently supports English and Japanese soundtracks. For films with other spoken languages, you can still use Overtitle as a subtitle display, but you may need to align the timing manually using swipe gestures.
What subtitle file formats does Overtitle support?
Overtitle supports importing subtitle files in .srt and .vtt formats. You can import these files from your device's Files app, Mail, AirDrop, or other compatible applications.
Can I use Overtitle without an internet connection?
Yes, Overtitle can work offline. You need to download your subtitles and the required speech model before starting your film, ensuring that synchronization can occur without an internet connection.
How does Overtitle handle display in dark cinemas?
Overtitle is designed for dark environments with a pure black background and minimal visual clutter. You can dim the display to a comfortable brightness level, and on OLED iPhones, black pixels remain off to minimize screen illumination.

The latest version of Overtitle is 1.1.1, which was last updated on September 5, 2026. While specific update frequency isn't detailed, this indicates active development.
