Here’s how to disable autoplay previews on Netflix

Netflix has now been updated to allow a user the option to disable the autoplay of previews.

If you’re keen to disable (or re-enable) the autoplay of previews, here’s what you’ll need to do:

  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
  4. Uncheck the option to Autoplay previews while browsing on all devices

If you’d like to re-enable, simply follow the above steps and ensure the option is checked when you get to step 4.

If you’re like to enable/disable the autoplay of a next episode when watching a TV series, follow the above steps and ensure Autoplay next episode in a series on all devices is either checked or unchecked, depending on your preference.

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
