How to turn on subtitles on Quibi and watch shows in your chosen language

• To turn on subtitles on Quibi, tap a playing video before tapping the "CC" button at the bottom of the screen.
• Quibi allows you to enable subtitles or closed captions at any time while you're viewing video content.
• Quibi also offers a way to turn Quibi subtitles on and mute your video by swiping up on the screen and releasing your finger directly over the mute icon.

When you're watching video on your phone in an app like Quibi, subtitles — sometimes called "Closed Captioning" — is not merely a convenient tool to make the audio more accessible. It also allows you to play video silently and still follow the action.

There are two ways to use subtitles in Quibi. You can either enable them while watching a video ordinarily or simultaneously mute audio and turn on captions with a single swipe.

When you enable subtitles and captions, you'll be offered the chance to choose between English and English (CC). The close captions feature both dialogue and various descriptions, such as sound effects and musical cues, while the English option contains only the dialogue.
