Add Portuguese Captions to Video in 2025: A Quick Guide

How to add Portuguese captions to video

01
Upload your video
Start by creating a new project and importing your video file. Any standard format will do — just drop it in and wait while your editing workspace prepares it for captioning.
02
Generate and refine Portuguese captions
Use automatic transcription to generate Portuguese captions. Scan through the text — correct names, specialized terms, or any translation mishaps to make sure your Portuguese captions hit the mark.
03
Export or share your new creation
Once your captions look good, finalize your video by exporting it. You can also instantly share it via a link. Now your audience can watch with Portuguese captions, no matter where they are.

Make your Portuguese captions stand out

Customize fonts & colors
Enhance each caption line with fonts, styles, and colors that fit your brand. Subtle design tweaks go a long way in grabbing attention.
Group edits & timeline syncing
Quickly edit multiple caption lines or tweak timecodes at once. Everything stays perfectly in sync with your video — no guesswork required.
Speaker labeling
If your video’s loaded with multiple voices, label each speaker for clarity. Portuguese captions become extra helpful when you show who’s talking.
