Step 3: Add Captions, Subtitles Automatically, Effects and Emojis
One of the best ways to increase engagement is by adding captions and subtitles. Since many users watch videos without sound, captions make your content accessible to a larger audience. Here's how to add them with Revid AI:
- After your video is uploaded, select Generate Video . (Don’t worry about the mode options as we will be improving out video in the editor)
- Revid generates the the Captions and takes you to the Editor screen where you can improve the captions
- Review the captions and make any edits if necessary. You can adjust the text style, size, and timing to match your video.
