How do I turn YouTube captions on?
I try to press down but it goes to related videos.. press side arrow and it jumps forward. Help?
Hi lol-47,
Thanks for keeping us posted!
This is an easy fix! Once you've played a video on YouTube, press down on your Roku remote and press up again. This will take you to the title information while the video is playing. Afterward, press the right button all the way to the gear icon and press OK. You will be directed to Settings, where you can select the "Caption" option to turn it on. The captions should now appear after these steps have been performed.
All the best,
KashWelcome to the Roku Community, BJWhite1402!
Thanks for reaching out. We'd be happy to help you utilize the closed captioning on the YouTube app on your Roku device.
We recommend logging into your YouTube account to ensure that closed captioning is permanently enabled. If you're already logged in and it still sets you back to default, we highly recommend reaching out to the channel provider for further assistance, as they manage their app on the Roku streaming platform independently.
You may reach them here: YouTube Support
We hope you find this information helpful.
Warm regards,
Carly
