Steps
Open CapCut on your computer, start a new project, and drag your video with spoken audio onto the timeline.
Click Text in the top toolbar, then choose Auto captions. Pick the spoken language and click Generate. Wait for CapCut to finish.
Play through the captions and fix any wrong words. Double-click a caption on the timeline to edit its text, then press Enter or click outside to save.
Select one caption clip on the timeline. In the Text panel, open the Templates tab and click a caption style to apply it.
Use the settings on the right to change the font, size, color, outline, and position. Keep the caption inside the safe area so it is not cut off.
Click Apply to All Captions so every caption in the project uses the same design.
Scrub through the video and adjust any caption that covers a face, product, or important detail. Then export your video.
Tips and common mistakes
Generate captions before styling, because templates apply to existing caption clips.
Keep captions short, one or two lines, so viewers can read them on a phone.
If Apply to All Captions is missing, select the styled caption first. It only appears for caption clips.
Check spelling and timing after applying a template, since some styles change line breaks.
Questions
Do caption templates work on auto captions in CapCut PC?
Yes. Generate auto captions first, then apply a template to one caption and use Apply to All Captions.
Can I change the caption font after applying a template?
Yes. Select the caption and use the text settings on the right to change font, size, color, and position. Some templates may limit certain options.
Will this work for TikTok, Shorts, and Reels?
Yes. The same caption track exports with your video. Keep text inside the safe area for vertical formats.
