Kaptioned: Automatic Subtitles Hack 5.6 + Redeem Codes

Hey David - I just wanted to say thank you for this app. It’s such a gift to me. My Portuguese grandmother recently passed away at 98 and I was hoping to find a translation app that could add subtitles to the dozens of videos we’ve taken of her telling stories over the last decade. I couldn’t find a translation app that allowed me to import video, but I did find *your* app which combined voice recognition and subtitles with multi-language support. What I didn’t expect is that I’d also be able to convert the subtitles into English in the same video. You have no idea how much it means to be able to understand all of my grandmother’s precious stories and keep them for future generations to enjoy, too. Thank you. ❤️

Easy and convenient to use! For my videos, the subtitles are highly accurate! Overall, I highly recommend :-)

Although this app does a really good job of generating auto captions that are pretty accurate, once that part is done it’s basically useless. I finished editing captions for a video, then paid for a subscription so I could remove the watermark from the video, and then was never able to actually download it. The interface is so basic there’s nowhere to even look for completed videos, and I went through the process four or five times to finalize the video, only to find that it wasn’t anywhere. I reached out to support for help, and have not heard back from them in the last 24 hours. I seriously doubt I will be even able to cancel my subscription at this point.

Went from high expectations to frustration in moments.

Purchased a monthly subscription, thank heavens I didn’t waste money on the year.

The good: Captions are fairly accurate and easy to edit.

The BAD: After EVERY use of the app to caption a video the app would freeze itself and my camera roll requiring me to RESTART MY PHONE AFTER EVERY USE!

The BAD: Contacted David via the contact form to see what advice he could give or to fix the bug…. NO REPLY. (Don’t offer a contact form if you aren’t going to answer.)

The BAD: Figured I could avoid constantly turning off and restarting my phone if I did a longer video… NOPE. Although never mentioned, the app only uploads video files under 10 minutes which is NEVER MENTIONED IN SALES COPY.

The BAD: Of course, as the app informs me that I can only do 10 minute videos it says I can 1 hour videos on the website… FOR AN EXTRA SUBSCRIPTION. Not going to pay more… and definitely don’t want to discover the nightmares involved there.

The app itself deserves more than 1 star, but the developer and the missing sales copy info drag the overall rating into the negative star zone.

This app has potential, but falls short in so many ways that I regret my hasty decision to pay for a year’s subscription before fully testing it! Some of my many problems with this app include: weird choices of caption breaks, misspelled words, weird incorrect identifications of sentences, and the difficulties of editing short caption bars because it automatically is in play mode and sometimes it’s difficult to stop before you passed the caption bar. I just tested. 15 minutes in Kaptioned versus 10 minutes doing it myself in InShot. I paid for a time saver, and got an app that takes more time to do it right. To top it off, there are no features found in other similar apps such as dynamic captions.

Disappointed with the app. I downloaded it and when I was going to put subtitles on my video the app closed completely. When I re-entered the app, it wouldn't let me do anything because, according to what it said, I had exceeded the limits of videos per day, even if the first time it didn't work for me. It asked me to buy the unlimited package or wait 24 hours to try again, and when I went to buy it, it seemed the height of excess of how expensive it was. So that's a big NO from me.

Very easy to use, the voice recognition and translation is close to perfect! It even support more than one subtitles which is super useful!

The app work nicely to create a video, but after days of trying it will not fully “finalize the video” so that it can be saved. Once I was able to get to the point of payment (and was charged) but the video did not complete finalization and will not save. It appears to be stuck as a draft. I think I wasted my money, just $3, for a final video.

After I spent the time fixing some of the subtitles I went to save the video to find out the subtitles didn’t export with the video. The transcription was pretty close to perfect, I will say that, just a few minor errors here and there. But in the end the video doesn’t export with the subtitles. It just saves the original video you uploaded to the app without subtitles.

I absolutely loved this app when I first bought it. I have not been able to use it for probably the last 2 months because it will not finish adding the captions. I have tried to contact support for help more than once without actually being helped. I am trying to figure out if I can get my money back!!!
