Turn off tracking
When you add a text label over a face or similar moving object in a video clip, tracking is turned on by default.

If you want a text label to stay in a fixed position in your video instead of following movement, you can turn off tracking.

Tap the text label, tap Disable Tracking, then tap Done.
