# How to enable or disable Captions
> Toggle Sendspark video captions on or off for your workspace. The global setting applies only to future videos; existing captions cannot be edited.
To turn captions on or off for your workspace, open **Manage Workspace** in your Sendspark menu and toggle the **Captions** setting at the bottom. This global setting applies only to future videos: existing videos won't change, and captions can only be switched on or off, not edited. For an older video, toggle captions individually from that video's edit page.
## Key takeaways
* The workspace **Captions** toggle (Manage Workspace) applies globally, but only to **future videos**.
* Captions can only be turned **on or off** — they cannot be edited.
* Videos created **before** the change won't update. A Dynamic Video Campaign launched with captions must be recreated to change them.
* To change captions on an older video, open it, click the three-dot menu on the edit page, and toggle **Captions** (videos recorded before 2/13/24 are unavailable).
## Important Notes
* **Applies globally**: This setting affects **all videos in your workspace**, but only for **future videos**.
* **Captions cannot be edited**: You can only turn them off or on.
* **Existing videos won’t change**: Any videos created **before** updating this setting will **not** be updated.
* **Dynamic Campaigns**: If you’ve already launched a Dynamic Video Campaign with captions enabled and later turn captions off, the old campaign will **not** update. You’ll need to create a **new campaign** for the change to apply.
