How To Add Auto Captions To Instagram Reels

[@lyndalawless]

I’m in process of posting my first reel, but first doing research on the how-to’s. This video of yours is great! Clear, concise, informative, easy to follow. Thank you‼️

[@ashesofadyingbreed6785]

Same here, I was about to post but it turned into a few days of research lol. Quite a lot to take in.

[@TheLanguageCoach]

Just subscribed. Clear and succinct explanation. By the way, very crisp sound on this video. However, I´m no getting the CAPTIONS option when I press the sticker. Any reason you might know why that is?

[@Penpadua]

What if I have an audio file that I want to play over an image? Is there a way to make captions appear on that? It keeps saying 'no captions'. Thank you loved this video.

[@freddiediamond]

Have same issue. Please help

[@brooksweddingceremonies4829]

Same issue 😔

[@sybillemoore507]

thank you!! it took me about 6 google searches to find this answer, so i'm so glad I found your video. super easy and helpful!

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

Glad it was helpful!

[@TheHomeDome-nz5lk]

Hi Jonny. Thank you for the tutorial. I think Instagram has changed their functionality or usability because the "captions" option is not available where you showed it. Is this perhaps only available for business accounts or is there a new way? Do you know? I appreciate the help thanks!

[@alexandrerighi]

have u figured it out yet? same boat here

[@lucienne-prive]

This is a great explanation however, the 'caption' option doesn't appear on my insta screen if I follow your first steps. Did I miss a setting?

[@yashshinde1736]

same

[@lucienne-prive]

Meanwhile I have checked all my settings and the caption button is still not appearing....frustrating. Any suggestions?

[@Paola01.]

I have the same problem, the caption sticker is nowhere to be found on the smily logo

[@mdrealtorchic]

So incredibly helpful! No additional apps to download! Thank you!

[@ShellySmith808]

ikr

[@themirrorbeauty]

Nope, no "Captions" sticker for me. I am guessing for the next couple of years it will only be available for a few countries, like Reels used to be. :)

[@NancyRuthMusic]

I don't have them either - maybe because I'm located in Spain?

[@themirrorbeauty]

@@NancyRuthMusic Definitely because of that. I think it's only available in several countries. But I think it should come to Spain earlier than to Russia where I am. ;)

[@HarrietDodea]

Not available in Nairobi Kenya either🥲🥲

[@nataliemayer5903]

I don’t have it either in the U.S.

[@annemariestrehl]

Still don't have it. I'm in Germany. But I did get the notification for its availability for some videos.

[@shannasaurus_rex]

Is there a way to do this on a saved sound? I can get captions on some things, but most of the time if I use a saved audio, it says no captions found.

[@RaghuRaahi]

Hi, this is a great insight. I am trying to add the caption but it only allows when you speak in the reel. What if I need to make a caption for a song in the reel. Can we do that?

[@LuisMendoza-uy3mx]

Hi. Do you know whether the captions button is only available for business accounts? My personal account does not show the button. Thanks in advance for your answer. 🙏

[@margueritebaca3921]

Jonny!!! Thank you. I've been wracking my brain and checking out all kinds of tubers for this answer. You have a loyal new grateful fan!

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

Thank you for watching! glad it helped.

[@TheNewYouPodcast]

That is really amazing how the research is because I am one of those people that do not have the sound on what I’m watching a Instagram. I actually was stop when I see something interesting that I want to actually put the sound on to hear.

[@otakugains6900]

I have a question so on instagram you have the option of using saved audio from reels you may have liked whenever I try to use the caption option it says nothing to transcribe so how are creators adding captions for some of the audio quotes they use? Is it a app?

[@luggagefit]

Thank you so much Jonny for this valuable info. Is a way to translate on Spanish as well ? Of just works on English ? Thanks 🙏

[@staceycoleman3233]

This definitely helped . I asked at least 10 people before this and I was ignored. Thank you so much sir .

[@gregfee1120]

Nice job on how to best use the text/voice combo… how can I add black outline to white text? Or a black blurred edge outline to white text? Thanks

[@marykrigbaum9021]

Can you record auto captions on a previously recorded video from another app? Thank you. I like how you teach.

[@evansfj]

You really helped me step my reel game up and this tip adds more creativity to the process. Thank you so much.

[@justinhansen1328]

Thanks for the great video. How long should the transcribing of the video take?

[@c3climate]

Question: I'm not seeing some of the same functions -- do I need to be a content creator (we are currently an IG business)?

[@1heckofathrifter651]

The video I've been searching for, for months! THANKS FOR SHARING THIS 👍🏾

[@JohanFitFoodie]

Epic tips here, definitely going to try immediately! Greetings from a Swedish fan in Beijing 🌆🏯☀️

[@theresanoye5643]

Thanks so much! Is there a way to add captions on imported audio?

[@vivekgadhavi4528]

Best bro i aplied instantly & it works amazingly🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤

[@lesliehutton9425]

Thank you so much, I do have a question - Is there any way to change your caption if you make a spelling mistake once it has been posted

[@iamashleyquinter]

Is there a way to add captions to reels made with music by an artist? When I add my songs no captions generate.

[@paulavidakovic]

How do I get the "Caption" icon in my "smiley face" folder? i don't seem to have it there like you do...

[@Ve_Filia]

Hong Kong not available too, so sad

[@discoversoftwares]

Hey , how did you get your phone showing up in your video while you were using it ?

[@CoCre8ors]

You Legend!!!! Thanks mate

[@IamDarls]

Oh my good Lord, I've been frustrated for so long... thank you for this information 🥰❤!

[@DennisBomBom]

Hey Jonny! Great vid. I don't have this option on my account. Could that be because not everyone gets it at the same time?

[@katebradley97]

How did you change the effects of the captions?

[@hennask1644]

I absolutely loved and learned so much it’s gonna save so much time with the typing did not know about this caption option thanks a bunch

[@kabaddiandfitness]

Thank you so much 👍

[@jlokdesign]

Extremly cool tip 🙌....to think about the Caption, at the beginning of a video!!! It´s super simple but heavy effective👍!!! Feel a little bit silly about not thinking about this...hahaha 😅 Thank You for that nice content 😃

[@EmilBrandtRex]

Thank you. Simpel og easy! BTW - do you know if it works in other languages? I would like to do danish. Just cant find the captation sticker. Could it because of another language?

[@michaelmarcano9200]

This helped me out so much today! Thank you!

[@nathanandkate]

At 1:27 What did you press to get the different feature options?

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

I think that is being rolled out, so may not be with everyone.

[@allenroy4120]

I am just starting out and this really did help me.

[@silviapalmero8681]

Hi Jonny, I am doing what you are saying but when I post it , it ovelays it twice making it hard to read , any ideas ?

[@jacquelinejase1121]

Thanks so much for the info!! So helpful. I am based in the US using an iPhone and I don’t have the captions sticker…is it based on how many followers etc? Thanks again.

[@shadowsnscares]

Your video is a gr8 resource. Helped me tons.

[@AustinBChappell]

Is there any app for premiere pro that does this?

[@wqross]

Been looking for this, thank you!!

[@JoyousandUplifted]

Hi! Thank you so much for this...we are tiktok and you still have great info🙏

[@StoriesOnWheels9]

Learning about this today!!!!!

[@naturalbornrunning]

Is there anyway of getting rid of the captions after you have posted the reel?

[@RodPantaV]

Thank you, Ill try it on my next video

[@emiliebutton1648]

game changer! Does it also work with stories?

[@AutopilottradingMarketTechTalk]

Good video Jonny. Do you have a video on Captions for #Shorts?

[@AutopilottradingMarketTechTalk]

[@brittanyedwards4185]

Very helpful. Thank you so much! Ready to start making reels with auto caption.

[@immortalnow]

Jonny, a thank you and a suggestion. This is exactly what I needed at 00:58. And I see most people have replayed it at this time stamp; as I had to, over and over. Perhaps slow down a tad at critical junctures? Again, just what I needed, and thank you. 🙏 So pleased to have discovered you today.

[@ManuelEscotetRealtor]

Hey Jonny it doesn't work if you upload a video edited in adobe premiere for example. Also I don't know how to get the auto captions without getting in the way of the Reel UI if I get the auto text with other application...

[@d.r.5817]

Hello , thanks for your video but do you know why my phone doesn't has this "caption" buttom in the sticker section?? I reaaally don't know why and how to solve it... I would appreciate any help. Thanks

[@grahamparker9096]

Thanks Jonny, have been trying to work it out all weekend. As is often the case with Insta, really simple once you know how.

[@scottishroad_pinoy9084]

I just want to say thank you for helping me do captions.

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

My pleasure

[@mrjackwitter]

Hi Jonny. Thank you for the perfect tutorial. Does the caption adapt automatically depending on which country a user is watching my video from? For example: In the original my audio and the caption are German. But if a user from America sees the reel, they will see an English caption. Is this possible?

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

I’m afraid not, this would be an amazing feature.

[@gregwalker7214]

Thanks for the simple Video🙏

[@fionatavernier3490]

This was super helpful. Going to try this on my next Reel.

[@bonginkosimaxwellsithole6170]

Thank you for the great information. My Instagram doesn’t have the auto caption sticker, is there a way of turning it on?

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

I guess it's an update coming to you. I assumed it had been rolled out everywhere.

[@pratibha23art]

Hello! Well explained 🙏🏻, but I've a problem that everytime I want to transcribe the audio it gives me just 2 errors, "check your internet" or "no captions found " this happens everytime, even after everything was right. I've updated g reinstalled the app still. Please help me out if u know the solutions as well. Please 🙏🏻.

[@taymarie24]

Thank you it worked so easy

[@ITreasureMe]

Thanks much! You made it so easy! I had used "caption" before, but I've been out of touch for a bit and forgot how to use the auto caption. Your suggestions are crucial as well.

[@MotivationbyCraig]

Really nice info. I will use that. Thank you!

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

My pleasure! Thanks for hitting the button.

[@WandererByNature]

Jonny, what's the secret? how come I can only see caption option you labeled as annoying that disappear quickly, which I agree. How to get to the option of text coming up on screen in different modes?

[@ItsJonnyKeeley]

Hmm I guess there is a partial update for me then, keep an eye on it, it may update soon.

Will sound like a joke but most people browse their phones on silent mode in work sneakily so that's why there is such a big pull from subtitles.
