## View audio subtitles in meetings

If you want to quickly scan through what was said in a meeting without sitting through a full-length recording, or find it difficult to hear what is spoken while you’re in a meeting, simply activate real-time meeting audio subtitles, and then view a transcript that contains all subtitles that were generated during the meeting.

**To view in-meeting subtitles in meetings:**

1. In a meeting, click **More actions** ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/e3a59e39-abd3-4423-964c-0a4008dc5673/Images/Documentation/icon-more_18x18.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-03T21%3A13%3A41Z&se=2026-11-03T22%3A13%3A41Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=zUxkO65OodE2TasAjqG3I5HYDCQE0qrWQAeSTBOL67I%3D) to open a menu of advanced meeting controls and options. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/e3a59e39-abd3-4423-964c-0a4008dc5673/Images/Documentation/meet-more-actions.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-03T21%3A13%3A41Z&se=2026-11-03T22%3A13%3A41Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=zUxkO65OodE2TasAjqG3I5HYDCQE0qrWQAeSTBOL67I%3D)
