The first step is to sign in to your YouTube account. Next, you can enable Always Show Captions and Include Auto-Generated Captions. Then, hit Save. Next, launch the YouTube app and tap the Show Captions toggle. You can now see your subtitles without the annoying white boxes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disabling_closed_captions_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Disabling closed captions on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You might be aware of the importance of closed captions when watching videos on YouTube. These captions help deaf and hard of hearing people understand what is being said on the screen. Although the captions are provided only in the primary language of a video, you can use subtitles if the video is in a different language. YouTube allows users to enable or disable closed captions for a specific video, either by adding captions themselves or by using the Google speech recognition system to create captions automatically.<\/p>\n<p>Enabling closed captions is easy to do on YouTube. To enable closed captions for a specific video, first go to the settings page. Next, select playback and performance. Check the box that says Always show captions and enable &#8220;Include auto-generated captions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Changing_font_opacity\"><\/span>Changing font opacity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to turn off YouTube subtitles, the first step is to turn on the feature. If you&#8217;d prefer not to see subtitles, go to the settings and click on &#8220;Subtitles.&#8221; You can change the font size, color, and opacity of captions. Alternatively, you can use a different browser or desktop program to view the video.<\/p>\n<p>Using the CSS style editor, you can change the font used for subtitles. You can choose either serif or sans serif fonts, or even cursive fonts. You can also change the font size, and make the font appear bold or italic. The color of letters can be changed to match the background, so make sure to set the color of the font accordingly. If you&#8217;d rather have subtitles without the video, you can also use the&#8217;shade&#8217; property.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Font_family\"><\/span>Font family<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to turn off YouTube subtitles, you can use one of several font families. These fonts can help you create a more attractive and engaging video. If you want to avoid annoying subtitles, you should use a font family that is easy to read. Make sure that the subtitles are aligned to the left. If they are too large, the viewer will have to squint to read them.<\/p>\n<p>To customize the font used for YouTube subtitles, go to the video and choose the font family. There are serif, sans-serif, cursive, and other fonts to choose from. You can also adjust the font size to make it bigger or smaller. You can increase or decrease the size of the font by using the + and &#8211; keys. Font family is a very useful tool when you are unable to read subtitles in full-screen mode.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Font_size\"><\/span>Font size<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re trying to optimize your video&#8217;s engagement, you must consider optimizing font size. While it might not seem like a huge issue, font size can have a significant impact on how viewers perceive your content. With this in mind, you can use an online subtitle editor to automate the process. Choosing the right font size will help you create the right subtitle for your content. And, once you&#8217;ve mastered the art of selecting a font size, you&#8217;re ready to go.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using a smartphone, you can easily adjust the font size for YouTube captions. You can change the font size in the Settings section of the Caption button. YouTube Sans is a great choice for captions because it&#8217;s easy to read and doesn&#8217;t distract from the video. It uses a font size of 42 characters, so the subtitles should not interfere with your video&#8217;s quality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Turn Off YouTube Subtitles If you&#8217;re having trouble viewing videos with closed captions, you&#8217;ll want to know how to turn off YouTube subtitles.
