YouTube Subtitles to Text
Read the subtitles of any YouTube video as clean text, in every language the video offers.
How it works
- Step 1
Paste the YouTube link in the field above.
- Step 2
Choose the subtitle language from the list.
- Step 3
Copy the text or download it as a file.
Manual subtitles first, auto as backup
When a video has subtitles written by a human, the tool uses them, because they read better. If only auto subtitles exist, they are used instead and marked as auto in the language list.
Frequently asked questions
- Which languages are supported?
- Every language the video has subtitles in. English, Spanish, German, French, Hindi, Slovak and many more show up in the language list.
- Can I switch language after loading?
- Yes. Pick another track from the list and the text reloads in that language.
- Are auto subtitles accurate?
- They are close but not perfect. Names and technical words often need a small edit.
