Frequently asked
What is an iTT file?+
iTT (iTunes Timed Text) is Apple's subtitle format based on TTML 1.0. It's used by Final Cut Pro and iTunes Connect (Apple TV+). The file is XML with timing and text inside <p> elements.
Why convert iTT to plain text?+
To get a clean transcript without timestamps or XML markup — useful for blog posts, show notes, SEO content, translation, or feeding the text to an AI tool.
Will the output preserve line breaks?+
Each cue becomes its own line, preserving the natural breaks from the original caption timing. If you want a single paragraph, reflow the text in your editor.
Can I convert iTT to SRT instead?+
Yes — use the iTT to SRT converter if you need timestamps preserved. Use iTT to TXT only when you want the words without any timing data.
