You can create photo captions in Facebook to personalize the photos you upload to your profile or to provide a little bit of backstory to the content that you post. Fortunately, the captions you create aren't permanent. If you want to fix a mistake you made when entering a description for a photo, or if you want to update an existing caption to add new information, you can do so easily at any time.

Step 1

Log in to your account. Select the "Photos" link from the navigation bar and then click "Albums."

Step 2

Select the album containing the photos with the captions that you want to add or edit.

Step 3

Choose a photo from the gallery and then click the "Edit" button. Enter a new caption into the field provided, or make changes to the existing caption.

Step 4

Click "Done Editing" to save your changes. Repeat the previous instructions to edit the captions on other photos in the album.
