Whether you turned on subtitles on Disney Plus to help your kids remember the words to their favorite songs, or you turned down the volume while watching the new Marvel movie so you didn’t wake anyone up during naptime, you may not be sure how to turn them back off. While this can be frustrating, don’t panic (and don’t cancel your subscription!). Turning subtitles on and off is fairly simple once you know where the option is hiding.

Disney+ is the home of streaming for all things Disney, and includes both new original programming and their classic catalog. Thanks to their acquisitions over the last few years, it’s also the streaming home of Star Wars, Marvel, and National Geographic. That means there is plenty here to love for what you pay for the streaming service. The closed captioning option makes it easier to understand what’s being said on screen, and is a great tool for anyone with auditory processing issues, but it can get in the way for some viewers.

That’s why we’ve covered how to turn off the subtitles in Disney+ for you here, so that you can turn them off and get back to your show!
