Confirming you caught the meaning.
문화적 배경
Italians often use 'Ho capito' as a filler while someone is talking to show they are paying attention. It's part of 'active listening'. In regions like Campania or Sicily, you might hear 'Aggio capito' or 'Haju capitu'. While regional, 'Ho capito' is still the standard for formal interaction. In a meeting, saying 'Ho capito' is good, but following it with a summary of what you understood is better to show true alignment. The 'ho capito' is often paired with a 'chin flick' or a simple nod. The hand gesture where all fingers touch the thumb (the 'hand purse') is NOT usually used for 'ho capito'—that's for 'what do you want?'.
The 'Aha' Moment
Use 'Ah, ho capito!' when you finally solve a puzzle or understand a joke.
Avoid 'Sono Capito'
Never use 'sono'. It's a common mistake for French/Spanish speakers. Stick to 'ho'.

The Silent H

Nodding
A single firm nod while saying 'ho capito' makes you look much more like a native speaker.
