I love captions bc I NEVER watch videos on my phone with sound on ... I would LOVE to see the ability to add captions (srt files) to videos and eventually have BB integrate captions into ALL videos but for now all Im asking is for srt files

  Hi Ben!

  Thank you for your feature request! This would definitely be a great feature to have, and we will continue to track the amount of requests we get for this topic. 

  We do have a way that you can use Apple Clips with BombBomb, which does provide captions in your videos. Here is an article that will show you how to do this: https://bombbomb.com/blog/add-text-to-video-apple-clips-iphone-app/ 

  I hope this is helpful for the time being, but if you need anything else please let me know!

  Thanks for your feedback.
  
  This is something on our radar, although we do not have an ETA of if and when it will be implmented.

  This is a critical feature. Video is increasingly watched on mute. The option to upload a .srt file would be very good. Thanks

  I have an LO that won't use BombBomb because most of his clients are deaf.  This is definitely a feature you need to add.

  I need to be able to enable captions or better yet, have my recipients be able to enable captions if they want them.

  Definitely much needed. I now need to jump between tools to accomplish this

  When will you be adding an option for captions on videos? So many people mute their videos now and I need to have the captions on there.
