Enabling Closed Captions

Acorn TV is pleased to offer closed captions (subtitles) on our world-class library of TV series and films.

If you’re watching on the web, simply select the show you’d like to watch and click the “CC” icon at the bottom right corner of the screen to enable or disable captions, or to change the caption settings (like font size, color, etc.)

If you’re watching on a supported device, you can find specific instructions below.
