How to customize DJI Osmo Pocket Story Template Text?

I am a huge fan of the DJI Osmo Pocket. It is a decent camera + gimbal combination that can fit on your pocket. While I have used it often, I have never come to use the "story" feature of the app. Today I was away and it was good to try it out.

I opened the app and used the story mode to make few clips using different templates. I can't say I was "mind blown" but the videos came out great. Wish there were more modes. Then I took some videos independent from the story mode thinking to use the "My Story" feature in the app since it has many other templates.

There was this nice template but it had Chinese captions on it. I tried to edit the text but couldn't find how.

After searching for a while I gave up. It turns out to be that the text can't be edited.

DJI Should

  • Build a tool / plugin allowing professional video editors to create templates and sell
  • Introduce a market place for templates
  • Allow a simple edit text feature in the app

I hate these Chinese companies exciting people but falling short in simple and obvious features!
