said that it uses speech recognition technology to transcribe the audio, given that spoken words have been used and the language used is English. While the company mentioned plans to expand the feature to other languages, that has not happened so far.

Drive, users will be able to open transcripts in a side panel on the right side.

These transcriptions are shown along with time stamps. Sentences are separated into different items on the list. The side panel also comes with a search bar. Users can either scroll through the transcriptions or search specific words to find the exact time stamp. Clicking on the sentence will also jump the video to that time stamp, allowing users to easily find what they’re looking for.

To access the feature, users will first have to play a video in

Once done, tapping on the Settings icon at the bottom right corner will show a new ‘Transcript’ option. Tapping this will open the side panel.
