• Google is enhancing Live Caption with Expressive Captions on Android.
• Expressive Captions use AI to recognize tone, volume, and ambient sounds and convey them with stylized captions and labels.
• The feature is available in the US for English on devices running Android 14 and above.

Google introduced Live Caption as a feature back in Google I/O 2019. This underrated accessibility feature can create captions of any speech coming out of your device. While the implementation is quite good by itself, plain and simple text on your screen does a poor job of capturing the intensity and emotions of the scene’s audio. Google is now upgrading Live Caption with Expressive Captions, using AI to capture the intensity of emotion of words and sounds and display it through text.

Google is introducing Expressive Captions in the US in English for Android devices running Android 14 and above that already support Live Caption.
