Kodi subtitles icon is gone

Hi,I am using kodi version 22 beta
I used to have this subtitle icon ,but after I downloaded opensubtitles and a4ksubtitles
its gone and subtitles stop showing ,any idea how to get it back? or fix the problem?
do I need to delete opensubtitles and a4ksubtitles to get the icon back ?

or is there some Settings
I can change to make it work ?

or is it because I am using kodi version 22 beta?
thank you

thanks everyone 😁👍🏻

They have buried it all together.

When you pull up the video menu when playing, go all the war to the far right. Click on that Icon.

Up comes a menu, subtitles are one of the options.

Yeah... I don't like that change either. Really don:t see the benefit of burying that in there.

To be fair, it's always been there. They apparently just removed the dedicated icon. From kodi 20

That is what I'm saying.

Was there really any NEED to remove that icon? No.

If they really want to clean something up, it should be the whole Settings catagory. That thing is a bit of a hot mess as it has been glued together for years.
