Has anyone here used the onboard closed captioning in iOS?
I switched to Pixel a few years ago because it has on device closed captioning, and iOS did not. I read that iOS does now, and I'm thinking about switching back. Has anyone here used it? Does it work well? Does it obscure much of the screen? I'm really interested in a screenshot if anyone is willing to share one. Thanks.

Live Captions is feature that can be enabled in the Accessibility area of Settings. It puts a small floating box on the screen at all times. Whenever you tap it, it expands to show a few lines of text of whatever audio is playing on the phone. The Live Captions interface is excluded from screenshots, so I can’t post that. Here is a YouTube video I found that shows how it works: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ekyMSeHtsrc&t=131s&pp=ygUTaXBob25lIGxpdmUgY2FwdGlvbg%3D%3D
Thank you. I ordered an iPhone a few days ago, so I'll be able to check it out in person in a couple weeks when the phone gets here. Hopefully it's as useful and streamlined as it is on the Pixel line of phones.
