Automatic subtitles for iPhone are coming! While several social networks including X have started to generate subtitles on all videos, iOS 27 will bring this revolution to iPhone. MCE explains everything about this great new feature!
On all videos
Because users of social networks are used to it. Most of the time, Tiktok videos have subtitles. But in recent months, X has taken the novelty a little further by adding a automatic translation of videos.
These subtitles have existed on YouTube for years. But with the progress of AI – and in particular its own, which had lagged behind -, Apple aims to change lives of iPhone users. iOS 27 will revolutionize everything!
It must also be said that the progress generated by Apple Intelligence has allowed the Apple brand to make life easier for its users. We can thus think of voicemail messages who now have the right to a script.
Excited by the success of this project, Apple developers continued with the vocals. While we are used to endless voice messages on Whatsapp to listen to at x1.5 or x2, the iPhone now offers to “read” the transcription of the vocals.
It is in the same vein that videos will soon have the right to the same technology. Whether we watch personal videos or videos sent by family, something new should appear soon at the bottom of the screen thanks to iOS 27: subtitles, like on YouTube.
iPhone: the contribution of Apple Intelligence
Mairs then, how does it work? Thanks to Apple Intelligence, no surprise. In reality, it is the voice recognition implemented by Apple which will allow you to script each video. All videos. It doesn’t matter which ones you want to watch.
So, this is the first time that Apple has offered a native way to generate subtitles. While the firm makes a point of preserve the privacy of its buyersit is necessary to emphasize an important detail: everything is done from the iPhone.
iOS 27 is like this allow the phone to “play” the video and subtitle it, without using any third-party solution. If you don’t like subtitles on a streaming app like Netflix, Prime Video or Disney+ or don’t exist, Apple responds.
But these subtitles will also allow you to watch certain personal videos with subtitles. A video in English sent by a loved one that you don’t understand? The iPhone will understand it for youat least as best as possible, and will generate the subtitles.

It is therefore a revolution. Personal videos recorded, videos sent by a loved one or played on a player, there will be way to read everything, understand everything. Well almost. Because iOS 27 is currently only dedicated to the English language initially.
Automatic subtitles go like this disembark in the United States and Canada First of all. Other languages and other deployments are planned. But they don’t have any dates given at the moment. To read the French subtitles, you’ll have to wait a bit!
