Netflix is one of the biggest video on-demand service out there and the application is on the phone and devices of nearly everyone around the world. But one of the ways by which you can better enjoy Netflix with your loved ones is to watch with the subtitles on or maybe they’re just intrusive and you might want to turn them right off so this guide will let you know how to activate subtitle on Netflix.

One big advantage of suing subtitles while watching Netflix videos is the ability to subtitle a particular movie in another language such as Spanish so if the language you’re hearing isn’t for you, you can just swap it out to another via the subtitle but how do you go about achieving this? Well it’s just a little hack which is what we’ll talk about in this short post detailing how to turn on Netflix subtitle with ease or turn it off just in case you find it too disrupting for you.

Then you can click on a movie that you want to watch and let it start playing then try and wait for the chat bubble icon located at the lower right-hand corner of the screen to pop out.
