Instagram has introduced new 'caption stickers' for video stories and releases that will transform the sound of the video into text.
These caption stickers will allow users to watch and understand videos without sound.
This feature will be helpful for people with hearing impairments as well as for users who want to watch videos without sound.
To use this feature, the user must first record a video using the Stories or Rails camera in the Instagram app or select a video from the phone gallery.
Then open the sticker tray and select the new caption sticker that will transfer the sound to the text.
The user will also be able to change the style, caption and position and color of the text to suit their video, after which the caption will appear with the video.
The feature will initially be available in English and is currently limited to English-speaking countries, but will soon be introduced in other countries and languages by Instagram.
The caption sticker from Instagram will first be tested in stores and reels and then introduced to the general public.
This feature has been introduced since Tick Tick introduced a feature called Captions which is called Auto Captions.
AutoCaptions in TickTalk automatically translates American English and Japanese language videos, but text can be turned on or off from the Villa app's share panel to watch videos.
Instagram had previously provided caption support in Threads and IGTV, but the company expects the expansion of Story and Rails to have more impact.
Currently, more than 500 million users use Instagram Stories on a daily basis.
