How to Do a Voiceover on iPhone

On iPhone you voiceover inside a video editor app. Here is how, with a clean generated voice you can save and add.

Step by step

How to do a voiceover on iPhone

  1. Generate the voice in Cantari: paste your script, pick a voice, and generate a natural read in seconds, then export the audio file (MP3 on every plan, WAV on paid plans). No microphone, no retakes.

  2. In iMovie for iPhone, open your project, tap the add button on the timeline, then Voiceover to record, or Audio to add a saved file.

  3. In CapCut for iPhone, open Audio, then Voiceover to record, or add audio from your files to import a generated voice.

  4. Drag the audio under your clips and balance the volumes so the narration sits on top.

The iPhone itself has no system voiceover for video; you do it inside an editor like iMovie or CapCut. Saving a generated voice file to your phone lets you add it in either app without recording aloud on the go.
