How to Turn Off Subtitles on Netflix
Subtitles are available on Netflix for a variety of reasons, including those who are deaf or hard of hearing, those who want to learn a new language through Netflix, and those who simply like reading the speech while watching their favourite TV show or movie.
It’s also quite simple to navigate to the subtitles option within the Netflix app, whether you’re trying to switch closed captioning on or off. This is true regardless of the device you’re using.
