TikTok captions

TikTok is one of the most popular social media platforms, especially among younger audiences. People watch short, funny, or informative videos everywhere — on public transport, during school classes, or late at night in bed. In these situations, sound is often muted to avoid disturbing others, making subtitles essential.

Wondering how to edit TikTok captions on a larger screen? You can easily add subtitles to TikTok clips on any device using our online tool, directly in your browser. Generate subtitles automatically, input them manually, or upload an SRT file.

Our service not only allows you to create subtitles but also lets you customize the font, color, and alignment of TikTok text. Moreover, you can translate your captions using the same tool, making your reels accessible to a global audience. Plus, you can save them as a separate text file for use on other platforms.
