How do I add closed captions to my reels automatically instead of typing them manually?

After you record a voiceover in your reel, there’s a button to enable closed captions (sometimes called auto-captions). The platform will transcribe your spoken words automatically. This saves you from manually typing and timing each word, which can take hours. You can also add captions in video editing apps outside the platform if needed.
