Make Reddit story videos on your iPhone
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.

- Open Reddit Story. Launch Brolled and choose Reddit Story from the tool list.
- 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.
- 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.
- Preview and export. Play the preview to check subtitle timing, then export the vertical video and post it to TikTok, Reels or Shorts.

Tips for the format
- Hook in the first line. The opening sentence decides whether people keep watching, so lead with the conflict, not the backstory.
- Split long stories into parts. A 60 to 90 second part 1 with a clear cliffhanger usually performs better than a single long video.
- Only use posts you wrote or have permission to reuse, and remove usernames or personal details.
