Frequently asked questions
Last updated 2026-10-07
Do I need an account to download?
No. Public and unlisted subtitles can be downloaded by anyone. You need an account to upload, rate or share.
How do I log in?
With your Google account. subtitld.cc never sees or stores a password.
Does the site upload my video when I search by file?
No. Your browser reads only the beginning and the end of the file to compute a fingerprint, and only the fingerprint is sent.
What is a share link?
Every subtitle gets an 11-character ID. subtitld.cc/Xk3pQ9aZ2bT always shows the latest version; subtitld.cc/Xk3pQ9aZ2bT/v3 always shows version 3.
What's the difference between public, unlisted and restricted?
- Public subtitles appear in search and are shared under CC BY 4.0.
- Unlisted subtitles can be opened by anyone with the link, but don't appear in search.
- Restricted subtitles can only be opened by the people and groups they're shared with.
