Yes: Chinese transcription gives the Mandarin as Chinese characters.
Can I get English subtitles?
Yes, SRT or VTT with timings, ready to load in a player or burn into the video.
How long can the recording be?
Up to 90 minutes, in a file under 95 MB. It's free within 90 minutes a day, with no account.
