How to turn off Netflix autoplay of previews

David Pescovitz 4:07 pm Thu Feb 6, 2020

I get overly frustrated when I'm browsing Netflix and it autoplays previews. Finally, they've enabled a way to turn that off (and also the autoplay of the next episode of a series). You can only flip the switch by logging into your account on a Web browser though. Here's how:

To turn autoplay on or off:

1. Sign In to Netflix from a web browser.

2. Select Manage Profiles from the menu.

3. Select the profile you’d like to update.

Check or uncheck the option to Autoplay previews while browsing on all devices.
