How to turn closed captions on or off on Roku

[blakejones]

Closed captions are not visible until activated. For some service providers, closed captions are activated from within the channel. The closed captioning settings available on your Roku® streaming device have no effect on the content from these service providers. See a list of a few common channels at the bottom of this article.

1. Press the Home button home on your Roku remote
2. Scroll up or down and select Settings.
3. To open the captions menu, select Accessibility. If Accessibility is not listed, select Captions.
4. Select Captions mode and choose when captions appear.
   • Off – captions never appear
   • On – captions always appear (when available from the service provider). When service providers use their own settings, closed captions are activated within their channel.
   • On replay – captions appear only after pressing the Replay button replay button on your Roku remote (with content that supports instant replay)
   • When mute – captions appear only when volume is muted. Note: this is not available on all Roku devices.
