Caption copy by link
Drop in a public link. This page reads the platform for you and returns the caption text so you can copy it in one tap.
Copy a caption in three steps
Step 1
Copy the post link
Open the public post, Reel, TikTok, or YouTube video and copy its link from the share menu.
Step 2
Paste it here
The box accepts Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube links. You do not pick a platform first.
Step 3
Copy the text
Copy the caption, the hashtags, or, on YouTube, the title, description, and tags separately.
Questions
What is caption copy by link?
You paste the URL of a public post instead of selecting text on the post itself. Caption Copy returns the caption so you can copy it.
Which links work?
Public Instagram posts, Reels, and photos, public TikTok posts, and public YouTube videos and Shorts. Other websites are rejected.
Do I need an account?
No. The website does not ask you to log in to Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or Caption Copy.
Will emoji and line breaks stay intact?
Yes. Copy uses the caption text exactly, including emoji and line breaks.
Why did my link fail?
Private, deleted, or age-gated posts usually fail. Check that the post is public and that the URL points at a single post or video.
Is there an app?
Yes. Caption Copy on Google Play can save captions on your phone and accepts a share from Instagram.
