Caption

Caption is the app you didn't know you needed for your movie nights! Most people have ditched DVDs and Blu-rays, right? Now, we're all about streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. But even with all those options, there are still times when you need custom subtitles. Maybe the service doesn't have captions in your language, or the ones provided don't sync up right. And sometimes—gasp!—there are no subtitles at all!

Why Use Caption?

This is where Caption comes in handy! It's a cross-platform and open-source subtitle finder that makes it super easy to get subtitles on your Mac. Whether you're using a streaming service or watching something saved on your hard drive, Caption has got you covered.

User-Friendly Interface

One of the best things about Caption is its minimalist user interface. You can search for subtitles by just typing in the name of the movie or show right at the top of the window. Or if you're feeling lazy (no judgment here!), just drag and drop your video file onto the main screen.

Simplified Downloading Process

When you drag and drop a file, Caption takes care of renaming and downloading the subtitles automatically. This means less hassle and more time for watching! Once your search results pop up, downloading a caption is as simple as double-clicking on it. You'll then pick where to save it and give it a name.

Where to Find Subtitles

As of now, Caption lets you search for subtitles from OpenSubtitles and Addic7ed. And guess what? More sources are coming soon! If you're into programming, you can even add your own subtitle sources since it's open-source.

Performance Review

I've tested Caption quite a bit, and it worked almost perfectly! There were a few hiccups though: sometimes it doesn't let you drag videos if it's already showing results from text searches. Also, it might download the wrong subtitle if there are too many options available.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for an easy way to find and download accurate captions for any movie or TV show, definitely give Caption a shot! It's designed to make your life easier when it comes to enjoying your favorite films!
