Logging out of Captions permanently deletes all of your locally stored projects and caption templates on that device. This applies to iOS, Android, and Desktop/Web.

Why Projects Go Missing

Projects in Captions are stored locally on the device where they were created. They are not synced to the cloud or between devices. This means:
  • Logging out permanently deletes all projects and caption templates on that device
  • Projects created on one device will not appear on another device, even when using the same account
  • Clearing your browser cache on Desktop/Web permanently deletes projects
  • Switching browsers or using incognito mode on Desktop/Web means projects won’t be visible

Can I Recover a Deleted Project?

Unfortunately, deleted projects cannot be recovered.
Cloud syncing is a highly requested feature that the team is actively working on. Stay tuned for updates.

How to Avoid Losing Projects

Always export finished videos before:
  • Logging out of the app
  • Switching to a different device
  • Clearing your browser cache (Desktop/Web)
