Frequently asked questions

Can I move the text where I want?
Yes — drag the text box right on the preview to position it anywhere over the video. Use the alignment buttons for left/center/right and the outline to keep it readable on busy backgrounds.
Can I use my own font?
Yes — click "Upload font" and pick a .ttf, .otf, .woff or .woff2 file. Otherwise a clean built-in font is used, with automatic fallback for emoji and non-Latin scripts.
Is the video uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser using WebCodecs — your file is never uploaded to a server, so it stays private and conversion starts instantly.
