How to Turn Off Subtitles on Your Apple TV

Subtitles and closed captioning not only make it easier for people who are deaf or hard of hearing to watch television shows, but they can also assist viewers in better comprehending programmes in which the dialogue is delivered in a language other than their own or with an accent. This is because subtitles and closed captioning allow viewers to read the words that are spoken on the screen during the broadcast.

When you turn on captions, you will be given the choice to change the settings for those captions, such as the size and colour of the text, but you also have the option to turn them off entirely if you prefer. This option will become available once you have activated captions.

When you do this, the translation subtitles that are normally activated for content that is spoken in a different language will not activate. A further limitation of this capability is that it will only enable subtitles for video content that was produced directly by Apple TV or Apple TV+. When using an app that was not developed by Apple, you will be required to make adjustments to the settings for the captions and subtitles.
