There is no Caption option on the Android version. I am using the latest version. When will this option be available for Android users?
Thank you.
Hi Brent,
We can confirm that Captions isn't available on Splice Android. However, it’s something we will consider for the future. So please don’t hesitate to check the Play Store often to download any new update as soon as it's available!
Have a lovely day!
