TV subtitles enabled and set up properly. Right size for you to read easily, working on all your apps and channels, shown how to control them. Stop missing what they're saying.
### Actually Understand What They're Saying
Modern TV sound is rubbish. Everyone mumbles. Background music's too loud. Accents you can't understand. Action scenes drown out dialogue.
You end up watching with **subtitles on constantly** just to follow what's happening.
The problem? Getting subtitles working properly across all your apps, at a size you can actually read, and knowing how to turn them on and off.
I'll sort it all in 10 minutes. Subtitles on everything, comfortable size, easy to control.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Different streaming apps have different subtitle settings. I'll set them all up the same way so you get consistent subtitles everywhere.

Good to Know
> 📺 **Multiple TVs?** Subtitle settings don't transfer between TVs - each one needs setting up separately. Worth doing them all in one visit though. **Hearing aids?** Some modern TVs can connect directly to hearing aids via Bluetooth. I can help set that up too if your TV supports it. **Kids' programs?** Many children's shows have subtitles that work well for early readers. Good for kids learning to read while watching TV. **Foreign language content?** Subtitles work for English shows, but Netflix etc. also have subtitles in multiple languages for foreign films and shows. I can show you how to switch languages if you watch non-English content. **Recording with subtitles?** If you record programs, most set-top boxes record the subtitle track too. I can check yours is set to do that.
Frequently Asked Questions about Subtitles setup in Newton Abbot
Can you set up subtitles on all streaming apps?
Yes - each app (Netflix, iPlayer, Prime) has its own subtitle settings. I'll enable them on all of them and set them to your preferred size/style. Some apps remember your settings, others need enabling each time.
Can I make the subtitles bigger?
Absolutely - that's the main thing people want. I can make them whatever size is comfortable for you to read. Also can change the background color if white-on-black or black-on-white is easier.
Will you show me how to turn them on and off?
Yes - some people want them on all the time, others just for certain shows. I'll show you the button on your remote that toggles them. Usually it's a 'Subtitles' button or buried in a settings menu.
Do subtitles work on live TV too?
Yes - most digital channels broadcast with subtitles available. I'll enable them and show you how to turn them on for live TV. Not every program has them but most do.
What if subtitles are out of sync with the picture?
That's usually a streaming quality issue. I can check your internet connection and adjust streaming quality settings to help. Sometimes it's the broadcast itself and there's not much we can do.
