Twitter is a popular social media platform that allows users to share and view videos. Videos on Twitter often include captions, which can be helpful for users who are deaf or hard of hearing. However, captions may not always be necessary or desired. If you want to turn off or on captions on Twitter videos, follow the steps below:
1. Open the Twitter App
To begin, open the Twitter app on your mobile device or visit the Twitter website on your computer. Log in to your account if you haven’t already.
2. Find the Video
Next, find the video that you want to watch or turn off/on the captions for. You can do this by scrolling through your timeline, searching for a specific user’s tweet, or exploring trending videos.
3. Tap on the Video
Once you’ve found the video, tap on it to start playing. The video will expand to full screen mode.
4. Tap on the Speaker Icon
In the bottom right corner of the video player, you’ll see several icons. One of these icons looks like a speaker or sound wave. Tap on this icon to open the audio menu.
5. Toggle the Captions Option
In the audio menu, you’ll see an option for captions or subtitles. It may be labeled as “CC” or “Subtitles”. Tap on this option to toggle the captions on or off. If the captions are currently off, tapping on this option will turn them on. If the captions are already on, tapping on this option will turn them off.
6. Adjust the Caption Settings (Optional)
If you want to customize the caption settings, you can do so by tapping on the gear icon next to the captions option. This will open the caption settings menu, where you can adjust the font size, color, and other display preferences.
