Editing Video Shorts

Upload Video Shorts
You can upload Shorts from your phone's Camera Roll to YouTube.
To do this, you'll need to edit your videos on your phone and add subtitles and captions before uploading.
- Add subtitles and captions: To add subtitles and captions, go into the video editing app on your phone (e.g., VLC) and click on "Subtitles" or "Captions" under "Advanced Options." Then choose one of three options: Manual (you type in the text), Automatic (the software automatically generates them), or Customized (you can customize what appears in either function). Once you've chosen one of these options, simply press play when prompted by VLC's interface!
