How to Contribute Subtitles to Someone Else's YouTube Video
Although community captions were discontinued in September 2020, you may still want to share subtitles with another user. This wikiHow shows you how to create your own subtitle .txt file to send to a YouTube user.
Things You Should Know
  • Subtitles can expand the audience of a video since they make the video accessible to people in different languages.
  • Create a TXT file with timestamps and subtitles.
  • Send a message to the video's creator on YT and ask if you can send the file for them to upload to the video's subtitle area in YT Studio.

Open a text-editing software. On a Windows PC, you can open Notepad.

Follow the exact format. Make sure that the timestamp is correct, otherwise your subtitles might not be in sync with the video.

Type the subtitles. Add extra timestamps if necessary.

Save your work as a .txt file.

Send the file to the YouTube user. See Message Someone on YouTube on how to send a message.
