Subtitles disappear on mobile

Whenever I play a video it goes to fullscreen and the subtitles disappear. The subtitles only appear when the video is paused and out of fullscreen. I’m on safari on an iPhone X. I’ve tried other browsers too and it’s the same

Thank you for describing this issue, Anthony. Unfortunately I don't have an iPhone.

On my android phone, videos don't automatically go fullscreen but if I choose fullscreen, subtitles indeed do disappear.

However, when I activate the timeline, there are 3 dots on its right that open a subtitle droplist. By default, the droplist is set on "no subtitles", but it can be used to activate any available set of subtitles.

I hope this works on your iPhone too.

Best,

Claude
