Unless you're a member of the deaf community or The Hitman: Blood Smells Like Rosesa big fan of foreign films, you probably never think about how drab your default subtitles are. You just queue up your device, press play on your favorite show and relax for the next eight straight hours of binge watching without reading a word.

You can pick any number of font, shadow and size combinations to fine-tune your subtitles.
