Yes. English (auto generated) transcripts are available in vid descriptions in YouTube apps


Thanks. If there isn't one on the web, anyone have a workaround to see it without an app?


You can use

https://tactiq.io/tools/youtube-transcript

This gets a transcript for this one https://tactiq.io/tools/run/youtube_transcript?yt=https%3A%2...

Or I tend to just click transcript on the youtube page and copy and paste all into my text editor. It's not a very good transcript though like just the words, not who said what.

Dunno if there's an AI version that's better?
