Zoom: Live Transcription Zoom
Walkthrough of Live Transcription options on Zoom
It is now possible to activate a live, computer-generated transcript in your Zoom meetings. There will be a Live Transcript button in your meeting controls for any meeting that you are hosting.
Note: You should not assume that this will meet the requirements for a captioning accommodation. Contact DRES if you have a letter of accommodation, to assure that you are meeting requirements.
- In your Zoom meeting, click Show captions.

- Clicking the button will prompt you to choose a language, you can change this later! After doing so, it will then turn on.
- If your screen is not full, you might not see the more options in your controls. Click the arrow, and then select Caption Settings.

- To edit the captions' appearance and additional settings, click the ^ next to the Show captions button.
If you find the subtitles distracting as you teach, you can hide the subtitles by clicking Hide captions. Captions will still be available to other meeting participants, but they won't appear on your screen any longer.
