Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for adding time-based captions to captured video. The program and method provide for displaying, by a messaging application, a preview user interface for previewing and editing captured video in order to generate a media content item, the preview user interface including an interface element which is selectable to switch to a captions user interface for adding a caption to the media content item; switching, in response to first user input selecting the interface element, to the captions user interface which is configured to receive user input for caption content and a duration to display the caption content; receiving, via the captions user interface, second user input for the caption content and the duration; and generating the media content item based on the caption content and the duration to display the caption content.

Adding time-based captions to captured video within a messaging system

The subject technology retrieves, by a client device from a storage device, first image data previously captured by the client device. The subject technology selects a set of media overlays, each respective media overlay including a category indicator and the set of media overlays is selected based on matching of the category indicator among respective media overlays from the set of media overlays. The subject technology causes display of a carousel interface comprising a plurality of selectable graphical items, each selectable graphical item corresponding to a respective media overlay of the set of media overlays. The subject technology receives a selection of a first selectable graphical item from the plurality of selectable graphical items. The subject technology applies, to the first image data, a first media overlay corresponding to the selected first selectable graphical item.
