Google Chrome includes live caption to videos from the web
Real time captions work on social media, websites videos, podcasts, or radio shows
The technological giant Google enabled the function of live caption for all the videos on the web in real time, an update in which the browser had been working since 2019 on mobile devices.
Live Caption, known in Spanish as “Automatic subtitles”, is found in the accessibility options and adds them to any video or audio file that is reproduced on the web. The subtitles appear in real time in a black box that can be adjusted to any part of the screen.
According to Google, automatic captions work on social media, websites videos, podcasts, or radio shows. You can also subtitle videos from the Google Photos library or WhatsApp audios that you play in the browser.
In case you want to add texts to the movies downloaded legally from the web, just open the file in Chrome and it will be activated automatically.
The objective of this update is to offer a more accessible website for everyone, because, according to the company, in the world there are more than 466 million people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
