## What is Subtitle?

The four words ever social media manager dreads to hear - "Can we add subtitles?"

Well dread no more! The Subtitle app makes it really simple to automatically generate subtitles (as open captions) for any video and then share them directly to social media.

Perfect for campaign videos, promotional videos, vlogs or influencers. The app uses speech recognition to auto-transcribe what's being spoken in the video. It won't get everything 100% accurate every time, so Subscribe makes it super easy to fix up any quick edits needed.

You can choose from several styles and fonts to make your subtitles pop, then export to Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, WhatSapp or save directly to the phone.

Subtitle gives you five FREE auto-captioning projects per month. Power users can get UNLIMITED projects for a low, simple monthly price. Much more cost effective than any alternatives.

The text is added to videos as Open Captions, meaning they're burnt into the video and always visible, which is perfect for increasing engagement on Social channels where audio might be disabled.

### 1/5 — No language for on-device recognition

*2020-10-23*

Would love to use this app, but every time I try I get a notification saying “no language for on-device recognition.” I have search every language setting on my phone and set them all to English, but still this keeps happening. Could be a great app otherwise, but I will never know.

**Developer response:** **UPDATE NOV 2020** Apple have now fixed this in iOS 14.2. If you update your phone the app will work again.

Hi eIrinne - yes, Apple’s recent iOS update has broken this on all apps for some users (not just ourS). We are working to fix this
