    Frequently asked questions

    How do I make text readable on a busy video?

    Use the background box option, choose a colour that contrasts strongly with the footage, and make the text large enough to read on a phone screen.

    Can I show the text for only part of the video?

    Yes, set the start time so the text appears when you want. Check how long it stays on screen and keep it long enough to read.

    Which text size works best?

    Pick a size that is clearly readable on a phone screen, and keep captions short. Very small text or text near the edges can be hard to read.
