Instagram Announces Auto-Generated Captions For In-Feed Videos
Instagram announced auto-generated captions for in-feed videos.
Whenever creators share videos to their feed, the videos will automatically have captions enabled. Alternatively, creators can disable auto-generated captions in their advanced settings and toggle them on for individual posts. At launch, the feature is available in more than 17 languages, including English, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, and Japanese.
Auto-generated captions continue Instagram's mission to make its app more accessible for different communities. In addition to enhancing the experience of those in the deaf/hard-of-hearing communities, auto-generated captions give viewers the ability to enjoy video content while in sound-off environments.
