How to Add Dialogue to a TikTok Video!

Standing out from the crowd on TikTok isn’t an easy thing to do, as it requires using all available techniques to distinguish yourself from others, and one effective method is adding dialogue, whether audio or text.

This article demonstrates how to incorporate dialogue into a TikTok video.

Add Audio Dialogue

If the desired audio is in the TikTok sounds library, search for it by selecting the + button at the bottom of the screen, then tapping Sounds at the top. Enter the audio title and search by clicking on the magnifying glass icon.

If original dialogues are preferred or the desired one is not available, utilizing the Voiceover function to add it in or editing a dialogue clip for incorporation into the new video are alternatives. To do so, the following steps should be followed:

Use the Voiceover Function

  1. Complete recording the TikTok video and tap the checkmark upon finishing.

Use an Edited Audio Dialogue Clip

  1. Record an audio dialogue within the video or search for a clip containing the desired dialogue.
  2. For proper editing of audio dialogue, utilize third-party apps as TikTok’s editing tools are limited. Consider using a PC for precise timing adjustments before transferring the edited clip to your mobile device.

    To upload your edited clip with the desired audio dialogue, open the TikTok app and tap on the + icon. Then tap on Upload, located to the right of Record.

    After uploading, tap Next, choose privacy settings if needed, and then tap Post.

    Once posted, return to your profile, locate the uploaded video, and tap on it. Finally, tap on the icon at the lower right, then select Add to Favorites, and confirm by tapping OK.

    Adding Captions or Subtitles

    If you prefer adding Subtitles instead of audio dialogue, you have two options: manually on TikTok or using a third-party app to include the captions before uploading the video. Here’s how to proceed:

    Using a third-party app

    You can use tools on third-party sites such as Veed to add captions to the video. This method is more efficient than doing it directly on TikTok. While there are other apps that offer similar features, the downside is that the captions become embedded in the video itself, making them inaccessible for TikTok keyword searching.

    Manual Input

    Adding text dialogue manually allows TikTok to index the clip based on the text you input, enhancing discoverability. Follow these steps for manual input:

    1. After recording a TikTok Video, click on the checkmark when finished.
      37.17
  3. On the lower portion of the screen, tap on Text.
    37.17
  4. To set up your subtitles, type in your phrases instead of single words if possible to reduce your workload. However, for emphasis, you can use single words.
    37.1937.19
  5. Place the text on the screen by tapping outside of the keyboard. Arrange the captions to your desired location.
    37.2037.20
  6. To adjust the duration, tap on the text, then select Set duration.
    37.2137.21
  7. Adjust the appearance and disappearance time of the captions using the sliders. Once set, tap the checkmark.
    37.2237.22
  8. To apply the above settings for the entire clip, repeat the process by editing the text after tapping on it.
    37.23
    • 37.23 Once done, tap on Next, then proceed to Post.
      37.2437.24
    • Your subtitled clip is now available on TikTok.

    A Tool for Creativity

    Adding dialogues to TikTok clips is just another tool to show off your creativity when making videos. It isn’t easy to catch the eye of the millions of users on the platform, but having all these options available is a good thing. The more you exercise your imagination, the better you’ll get at doing them.
