Allow editing of Dropbox Capture transcription (and thus closed captions)

I am trying out Dropbox Capture. Unlike Loom, there appears to be no capacity to edit transcripts and associated closed captions. Surely I am mistaken! The ability to edit a transcript (with flow-on effects to closed captions) is integral to reliable video production. Please remedy. I won't be using DB Capture until that is done.

    What a laugh. I will NEVER use this feature unless it allows for editing of captions. It is borderline useless as is. Unless the captions are correct first time round, which almost never happens. So, another Dropbox feature that is poorly thought through. And you won't change it.

    So disappointing that Dropbox is not considering this feature. It's a basic accessibility requirement and does not demonstrate best practice in equity for people with disabilities. It seems ironic that I receive Dropbox emails about all of the video-editing mark-up and feedback tools via Replay but we can't even edit captions on a dropbox Capture video. Without the ability to edit the captions/transcript, all video features in dropbox are unusable for me and my team.

    Hey everyone, thank you so much for your feedback! I’m excited to announce that we have recently launched transcription editing in Dropbox Replay. We hope this improves your workflow and makes editing transcripts even easier.
