Hi,
In General>Accessibility>Subtitles and Captioning I can change every aspect related to subtitle such as font type, font color, background color and so one.
Every change I make works perfectly... EXCEPT font size... whatever size I chose.... NO CHANGE at all.
This worked perfectly until version 13.3.
How to change subtitle font size to large or extra large?
Thanks for helping out!!
Kind regards, Stef
Apple TV 4, tvOS 13
I have the exact same issue since TVos 13.3. And because I cannot downgrade, I am stuck. Please fix this in the next version of TVos. I cannot watch any movies anymore with this small subtitle size!
This is the size of the subtitle with font size set to Extra Large.
These are my settings. (it's in Dutch, but says, Font Size Extra Large). All the other settings do appear correct. But font size is really needed to be able to read the text.
Description bug: custom styles for font sizes don't appear in video apps, like Netflix. the font type and other properties are correctly shown, it's just the font size that doesn't match anymore. It doesn't increase in size when setting it to large or extra large.
Reproduction steps:
1. go to general --> accessibility --> Subtitles and Captioning --> Style --> Edit styles --> new style
2. set text --> Size to Extra Large and Video Overrides Style to Off (see screenshot file)
3. Open Netflix app or any other video app that uses the subtitles of the apple tv
4. The video shows the subtitles very very small. Tested it on 4k sony tv and also on samsung full hd tv. (See screenshot file)
Expected behavior:
In step 4, the subtitles should become extra large. I don't have a screenshot of that, but is was much much larger before the update of 13.3 build 17K5449a.

And video screenshot again:
This issue is now under investigation by Apple.
With help of Apple Support I've investigated & tried every option.
Then reinstalled iOS from scratch... nothing worked, problem description remains same.
It is now registered and Apple SW Dev't will look into it.
Most probably this can only be solved in next iOS update.
Will post new developments here.
Yep, restarted through menu and by powering off for >30 seconds... did not solve the issue unfortunately.
Strangely enough this issue has never manifested until after installation of version 13.3
I’m having the same problem... never happened before
This isn’t still fixed! Can’t change my font size, the rest works fine. Unbelievable.
Promised to provide update here... still no resolution...
Subtitle font size can't be changed in tvOS 13.3
