Amazon Prime Video is a great way to watch movies and TV shows without having to leave your living room. You can watch shows and movies on your computer, phone, or even on a TV in your home. But sometimes you want to be able to see the subtitles for those big action scenes or for when you don’t have a lot of time. Amazon has a feature called “Subtitles on Demand.” This feature lets you enable subtitles for specific shows and movies that are available on Amazon Prime Video. To enable Subtitles on Demand, go to the “Settings” page of your Amazon Prime account and click on the “Subtitles” tab. Under “Available Shows,” select the show or movie that you want to add subtitles for. Then click on the “Enable Subtitles” button. If you have any questions about this feature, please contact us at help@amazon.com.
How to Enable Subtitles
Under “Shop by Category,” click “Prime Video.”
When the next menu populates, select “Prime Video” again.
Once you’re on the main Prime Video page, select the show or movie you want to watch.
After the show’s info populates, select “Watch Now.”
After your movie or show has started, select the icon that looks like a chat bubble in the top-right corner.
This will generate a drop-down menu that shows the content’s subtitles and audio settings. Select the language in which you want the subtitles to appear. This also enables the feature.
Select the text bubble again to ensure the subtitles are enabled. There should be a checkmark next to the language you selected.
How to Customize Subtitles
Select “Prime Video” in the newly-populated menu.
Under this second menu, select “Prime Video” once again.
Now, select “Settings” in the menu bar once you’re on the Prime Video page.
Click “Subtitles.”
In the “Subtitles” tab, you’ll see a default subtitle and options for editing the captions.
If you want to change the default subtitles, click “Edit” next to each preset to adjust the caption’s font size, color, opacity, and more.
You’ll now be able to catch every moment of your shows and films with your customized subtitles.
