Hook Caption
Captions for Reels & Shorts
9,00 kr · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
HookCaption is a fast caption maker and hook helper for short-form creators.
Import a video, choose or write a scroll-stopping hook, add timed caption cards, preview the safe zones for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, then export a clean captioned video.
HookCaption is intentionally simple: it is not a giant video editor, template marketplace, or social publishing platform. It does the small jobs creators keep repeating before they post: make the first second clearer, keep captions readable, check the platform safe zone, and copy the post text when the video is ready.
What HookCaption does:
- imports videos from your photo library
- adds a bold opening hook
- includes a Hook Bank with ready-to-edit starter ideas
- lets you write and time caption cards
- includes clean creator-style caption presets
- previews common short-video UI safe zones
- checks whether the hook, first caption, timing, and publish pack are ready
- copies a post caption and hashtag pack to the clipboard
- exports captioned videos
- saves exports to Photos when you ask
- works without an account, analytics, or tracking
HookCaption is built for creators, students, small businesses, coaches, and anyone posting short videos who wants a faster caption workflow.

HookCaption 1.2 - What's New
SRT subtitle file export
HookCaption now exports a standards-compliant SRT subtitle file from your captions with one tap. The SRT includes your opening hook as the first block and all timed caption cards in sequence. Use it on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or any caption editor that accepts SRT files.
Your work is saved automatically
The app now saves your hook text, caption cards, caption style, platform choice, post caption, and hashtags as you work. Reopen HookCaption and your last project is ready - no re-entering captions between sessions.
Save and reuse your own hooks
Tap the heart icon next to "Opening Hook" to save any hook to your personal library. Saved hooks appear in a collapsible list below the starters - tap to load, tap the trash icon to remove. Keeps up to 30 hooks.
Expanded Hook Bank - 30 starter packs across 8 categories
Two new categories are added to the Hook Bank: Story (personal narrative openers like "The moment I almost gave up") and Tutorial (step-by-step promise openers like "Three steps and this is done"). The Hook Bank now contains 30 ready-to-edit starter packs.
EXPORT shortcut in the header
The EXPORT badge at the top of the screen is now a live button that scrolls directly to the Export panel so you never have to hunt for it.
