Review Summary

Users appreciate YouTube Caption for its bilingual subtitles, search and translation capabilities, and overall helpfulness in language learning and video comprehension. However, many report the extension stops working after updates, lacks font customization options, and misses useful features like copying and downloading subtitles. Some also experience UI issues such as small or flickering subtitle fonts and problems with subtitle panel behavior. Despite these issues, the extension remains highly praised for its core functionality.

Pros

  • Provides bilingual subtitles which aid language learning (e.g., Russian and native language).
  • Allows searching text within the entire video and translating subtitles into any language.
  • Offers practical and useful features such as subtitle highlighting in sequence and subtitle display panel.
  • Includes free access to premium bilingual features similar to those of Sider.
  • Highly praised by users for enhancing YouTube viewing experience and language comprehension.

Cons

  • Extension frequently stops working or becomes non-functional after YouTube interface updates.
  • No option to customize subtitle font size or style when displayed in video (only in side panel).
  • Lack of features such as copy, download, and AI summary for subtitles, which users desire.
  • No persistent setting for collapsed subtitles; they reopen automatically instead of staying closed.
  • Occasional UI issues like small font size, overlapping subtitles, and auto-scroll delays in subtitle list view.
