Google-owned video streaming platform <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/technology/article/indian-youtube-creators-contributed-a-whopping-rs-6800-crore-to-the-economy-in-2020-23216828" rel="none">YouTube</a> is bringing video transcriptions to its Android app.
According to Android Police, with this new feature, users do not need to be sitting in front of a computer to scroll through a script.
Once it is live, they can click on the "Show Transcript" button found below a video's expanded description, sandwiched between any provided chapters and other suggested uploads from the channel.
These transcript options appear pretty similar to what's been available on desktop for a while now but transposed to a mobile-friendly UI.
Users can scroll through a full script on their <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/technology/article/telegram-releases-new-features-to-support-customised-stickers-improves-message-reactions-23212479" rel="none">phone</a>, either to read along with a video or to jump directly to a timecode.
Unfortunately, without the ability to directly search through lines, it might be a little less useful than the desktop version, the report said.
The report mentioned that transcriptions make it a whole lot easier to search out specific parts of a video.

According to a report by Android Police, this new feature will allow users to view the transcript by clicking the "Show Transcript" button instead of scrolling through it separately from a computer
