Silent Videos Killing Your Spin Engagement?

Spin the Wheel’s WebVTT spinner captions solve this with dynamic text overlays. Sync captions to wheel stops so every win self-documents.

The Caption Gap in Interactive Media
Traditional spinners treat captions as afterthoughts. Yet 83% of educators demand real-time result labeling for hearing-impaired students (EdTech Journal, 2025). WebVTT (Web Video Text Tracks) bridges this gap. It’s the same format Netflix uses for subtitles—now optimized for wheels.
