TikTok announced today that it’s introducing new caption and translation tools to make its content more accessible for users around the world. The new updates will support an initial batch of languages including English, Portuguese, German, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Mandarin, Spanish and Turkish.

Firstly, the company is launching auto-generated captions for users. Viewers, in addition to creators, now have the option to turn on closed captions for videos. TikTok is also introducing translations for captions and video descriptions, which will give users the option to enjoy videos beyond the original language. Lastly, the company is launching translation for text stickers. TikTok says it’s at the early stages of rolling out these tools, which are available on select videos at this time.
