CapCut captions in Arabic

CapCut captions in Arabic

Why creators are looking for Arabic captions

CapCut includes built-in auto-captions, but they work reliably only in English and a small number of major languages. For Arabic, most creators type caption text manually in the caption editor or paste from a transcription tool — and editing RTL text on a phone screen in CapCut is awkward, particularly for punctuation and line positioning. CaptionX is being built to generate Arabic captions in a format that loads cleanly into CapCut without requiring manual RTL corrections.

CapCut's caption editor is designed for left-to-right input. When typing or pasting Arabic text, cursor behaviour and character placement can behave unexpectedly — making it easy to introduce errors in RTL caption sequences, especially when editing on a small screen. The most reliable workaround is a tested external caption file rather than manual entry inside CapCut.

CaptionX is being built to handle Arabic right-to-left formatting before the file reaches CapCut — so the caption text, punctuation, and line positions are all correct on import. The goal is to let Arabic creators paste or import captions into CapCut once and post, without needing to correct character order or reposition caption blocks by hand.

This page is for creators who want automatic Arabic captions, styled subtitles, and ready-to-post output for their CapCut videos. If that matches your videos, join the waitlist and we'll notify you when support is live.
