When you're watching video on your phone in an app like Quibi, subtitles — sometimes called "Closed Captioning" — is not merely a convenient tool to make the audio more accessible. It also allows you to play video silently and still follow the action.

There are two ways to use subtitles in Quibi. You can either enable them while watching a video ordinarily or simultaneously mute audio and turn on captions with a single swipe.

When you enable subtitles and captions, you'll be offered the chance to choose between English and English (CC). The close captions feature both dialogue and various descriptions, such as sound effects and musical cues, while the English option contains only the dialogue.

Here is how to do both.
