How to Use Google’s Live Caption On Android
Google has recently introduced a new feature to its Android operating system called Live Caption. This feature adds subtitles to any media on your device, whether it is a video, podcast or audio message. It’s a great feature for people who are hard of hearing, in noisy environments or just want to follow along with their media without having to turn up the volume.
Here’s how to use Google’s Live Caption on Android:
Step 1: Enable Live Caption
First, you need to enable Live Caption on your device. To do this, go to your phone’s settings, select “Accessibility” and then tap “Live Caption.” Turn it on by toggling the switch.
Step 2: Play Your Media
Next, play your media. When it starts playing, you should see a small box with a speaker icon appear on your screen. Tap it to access the Live Caption feature.
Step 3: Adjust Settings
You can adjust the Live Caption settings by tapping the gear icon on the bottom left of the caption box. Here, you can change the caption text size, style, and color. You can also enable or disable profanity filters.
Step 4: Control Caption Position
If the caption box is in the way of your media, you can move it around by dragging it to a different part of the screen.
Step 5: Hide Caption
When you’re finished watching your media, you can hide the caption box by tapping the speaker icon again.
With Live Caption, Google has made watching media on your Android device more accessible than ever. The feature is easy to use and can be customized to your preferences. So the next time you’re struggling to hear or understand something in your media, give Live Caption a try.
