Hi there,

 

We promise that NOW TV are working hard to get subtitles added to a majority of the entertainment titles.

 

There is a few legal requirements to do this so we need these to clear first.

 

We promise we are aware of the need and we are working hard to get the BAU pushed through for substitles in the future

 

We appreciate your patience on this matter.

 

Many Thanks,

"Few remaining legal requirements", translation: We're trying to figure out just how long we can drag introducing proper subtitling without getting some kind of sanctions.

Pretty much, new movies get it added which is great.  However for entertainment titles it's poor.  Netflix, Amazon Prime, I-Player, ITV Player all can manage it, but Now TV cannot.  Thinking of cancelling the Entertainment and use Kodi instead at least there is an add-on to use subtitles!

had a free trial a few years ago - used it f or a few days only - no subtitles so didnt bother any further -

again a free trial offer still no subtitles - think its best to stick with netflix and not bother again with now tv - its seems just a waste of time again ...

My Roku box does subtitles for the movies but not seen anything for entertainment yet. Oddly enough, I turned on SWAT on my iPad the other day and subtitles appeared. I checked some other programmes and they were on for those too. Weirdly there is no on/off switch within the app, I had to go to the iOS accessibility settings and nothing was turned on. So I turned the iOS captions on and off again, which toggles them properly in the app.

I wonder how long they have been available through the app and why they suddenly appeared?!
