Hinglish captions for Reels, word by word
Most caption apps hear Hinglish and either write it in Devanagari or translate it into stiff English. Zera writes it the way you would type it to a friend: Roman letters, your own words, each one timed to the moment you say it. Want Devanagari instead? Pick Hindi. Speaking English? Pick English.

06FAQ
Questions,
answered.
01What are Hinglish captions?
Captions that write Hindi or mixed Hindi-English speech in Roman letters, like "ye trick try karo", instead of Devanagari ("ये ट्रिक ट्राई करो") or a translation. It is how most people type Hindi on their phones, so it is how most viewers read fastest.
02Why not just use Hindi captions?
You can: choose Hindi and Zera writes in Devanagari. Many viewers, especially on Instagram, read Roman Hinglish faster, and the English words you use stay as they are.
03Can I fix a word the AI got wrong?
Yes. Every caption is editable before you export: correct a word, change a spelling, or delete a line.
04How much does it cost?
Hinglish captions cost 3 credits a minute; Hindi, English and Auto cost 1 credit a minute. Every new phone gets 50 free credits once, and the price is shown before the captions start.
05Does it work for YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels?
Yes. The captions are part of the exported video, so you can post it anywhere.
06Is it available on iPhone?
Not yet. Zera Studio is on Android, through Google Play.
