Why Adding Subtitles to TikTok Videos is Important

Adding subtitles to your TikTok videos is a smart way to reach a wider audience. Subtitles not only make your content accessible to viewers who are hearing impaired, but they also allow people to engage with your videos when they’re watching without sound—a common behavior on TikTok. Subtitles can boost engagement, helping keep viewers on your video for longer, and they make your content more inclusive for audiences around the world.

Here’s why subtitles are essential for TikTok:

  • Accessibility: Reach viewers who are hearing impaired or prefer watching without sound.

  • Higher engagement: Subtitles keep viewers engaged longer, even in sound-off environments.

  • Wider reach: Subtitles make your content more understandable to viewers across different languages and regions.

Whether you’re uploading to TikTok or other popular platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, or Wistia, our subtitles can be formatted and adjusted for a professional finish.

Happy Scribe supports a wide range of languages and dialects, so you can connect with audiences worldwide. For content creators on platforms like Bilibili, our subtitle generator helps ensure your videos are fully accessible and easy to follow.

Here’s how it works:

  • Upload your video to Happy Scribe.

  • Generate subtitles quickly using the hybrid transcription system.

  • Edit in the interactive editor to make any adjustments.

  • Export the subtitles in the right format for your TikTok video.

Customer Reviews

Rated Excellent 4.5/5 on Trustpilot
  • HappyScribe is fast and good
    The speaker system is pretty inaccurate but otherwise it's perfect and very fast I'd recommend it.

  • Really happy with this service
    Really happy with this service. I'm using HappyScribe to transcribe interviews in French and the accuracy is great, punctuation good. It also doesn't pick up all of my "mhmms" which is a very good thing!

  • Nice service
    Very fast. The English transcription is great but just to improve the French one. With HappyScribe, you earn time, you earn business.
