Overview

Captions are a big part of how your videos look. Set them once on the Guidelines page and CaptureFlow applies them to every video.

Go to Guidelines and open Video Captions. The settings are grouped into Text & Colors, Position & Effects and Background.

Choose the font family, size, weight and case, and set the colors for the active word, the inactive words and the text outline.

Set where captions sit (top, center or bottom), the alignment and width, and turn on effects like Bold Active Word and Scale Animation.

Optionally add a colored background box behind the text, with your own color, padding and corner radius.

Watch the Live Preview update as you change settings, then click Save Changes.

Tip: Bold Active Word gives that popular TikTok and Reels look where the current word stands out.
