How to add captions to a video in Adobe Express, and then actually style them: your font, your size, your colours, so the captions look like your video instead of a default. Auto captions in about a minute, no second app.

Most caption tools give you one look and that is the end of the conversation. You get whatever the app hands you, and every video you post ends up wearing someone else's font. The generated style is a great starting point, it gets you most of the way in one tap, but it is a starting point and not the finish. Changing the font, the size and the colours takes seconds, and it is the difference between captions that sit on your video and captions that belong to it.
How to add captions to your video:
🎬 Upload your video, then hit the CC icon at the top of the timeline
🌐 Pick your language and tap Generate, and it transcribes the whole thing
✨ Grab a caption style, one tap gets you most of the way there
🎨 Then make it yours: swap the font, size it how you want, colours to match your brand
✏️ If a word came out wrong, fix the text and it updates on the video straight away
No second app, no extra subscription, and it is free to try.
