FAQ
FAQ
How do I download subtitles from YouTube?
Paste the YouTube URL above, select SRT, VTT, or TXT, and click Fetch. The download starts within 3 seconds.
Can I download subtitles in other languages?
Yes. If the video has translated caption tracks (community-uploaded or auto-translated), they're all listed after fetching.
SRT vs VTT: what's the difference?
SRT is the most widely supported subtitle format and works with every video editor. VTT supports styling, positioning, and metadata and is preferred for HTML5 web video.
Does it work on age-restricted or private videos?
No. We can only access public, non-restricted videos. Private/unlisted videos need authentication that we don't bypass.
Are auto-generated captions accurate?
Roughly 90-95% accurate for clear English speech. Lower for technical jargon, accents, or background noise.
Is downloading subtitles legal?
YouTube exposes caption tracks publicly. Downloading them for personal use is fine. Republishing copyrighted content isn't.
