**What**
This workflow lets you reuse an existing subtitle draft instead of starting from scratch.

**How**
Upload your YouTube Shorts video and your current SRT, adjust line timing and wording, then export a refreshed subtitle file or hardcoded caption output.

**Why**
It saves time when you only need targeted fixes like hook timing, CTA text, or spelling cleanup.

Start from [Add Animated Captions for YouTube Shorts](/tools/add-animated-captions-youtube-shorts) and continue in [Generate Subtitles](/tools/generate-subtitles) for full subtitle editing.
