Make Reddit story videos on your iPhone

By umay.dev, maker of Brolled

A Reddit story video pairs a written post with a voiceover, large synced subtitles and a looping background clip. Brolled's Reddit Story tool builds that format on iPhone: paste or write the story, pick a voice and a background, and export a 9:16 video without opening a timeline editor.

How to make it with Brolled

  1. Open Reddit Story. Launch Brolled and choose Reddit Story from the tool list.
  2. Add the story text. Paste a post you have the right to use, or write your own story. Keep the title short; it appears as the post header.
  3. Choose the voice and background. Pick an AI voiceover and a background clip. Gameplay-style or satisfying loops keep the eye busy while viewers listen.
  4. Preview and export. Play the preview to check subtitle timing, then export the vertical video and post it to TikTok, Reels or Shorts.

Is it free?

Brolled is free to download with 3 free credits and all tools unlocked. Free exports are SD with a watermark; a subscription removes the watermark and enables HD.
