Hello YouTube Team, I'm experiencing an issue with subtitles on the Android app. When I watch English videos, Arabic subtitles are available, but they do not appear on my phone. On my computer, the exact same videos display the Arabic subtitles correctly without any problem. I've already checked that Arabic is available, but the app still doesn't show it. Could you please investigate this issue? Thank you.

when I watch a video I can't rotate my phone sideways to get a bigger video. If I rotate my phone to watch a video it rotates the video in such a way that I can only see a small portion of the video on the bottom left side of my phone. Also, in this moment the video freezes and/or the touch function becomes unusable. Mostly it just freezes until I force close the app and reopen. Tried deleting/reinstalling, restarting and throwing my phone to the ground. Please help!! Send me a bug fix YouTube!
