Closed Captioning Feature On iFIT

New Closed Captioning Feature On iFIT | NordicTrack Blog

UPDATED, June 15, 2022

iFIT® members can access the closed captioning feature during workouts. No second-guessing yourself what your iFIT trainer is instructing you to do during your session and get clear and precise instruction without skipping a beat. 

“What is a closed caption feature,” you ask? Closed captions (cc) are a text version of what is being said on the screen of what you’re watching. This iFIT feature was designed to give access to everyone, including those with different abilities, and compliment a user’s audio experience while providing a visual explanation of what your iFIT trainer is instructing you to do, so you can enjoy an iFIT session in any workout environment.    

Closed captioning is available in English and Spanish for most workouts, both on NordicTrack equipment and the iFIT app.
