Introduction
By default, Netflix enables the autoplay feature that will automatically play the next episode or show in a series after you finish one, or a movie that’s related to one you just finished. While the Netflix autoplay feature is convenient, it can make it a little too easy to slip into a binge-watching session or movie marathon. Thankfully, if you want to remove the temptation, it’s easy to turn off Netflix autoplay. However, you have to turn the autoplay feature off through the Netflix website and you can’t do it through the various other Netflix platforms. Examples of all instructions in the steps can be seen in both the YouTube video above and the image collection located beneath the steps.
Steps to Turn Off Netflix Autoplay
- Navigate to Netflix.com in a web browser and log in to your Netflix account. You’ll arrive at your Netflix home screen.
- Click the profile icon in the upper right corner of the screen to open a drop-down menu. Click “Account” in the drop-down menu. Your Netflix Account screen appears.
- Scroll down to the My Profile section, and then click “Playback Settings” in the My Profile section. The Playback Settings screen appears.
- Scroll down to the Auto-Play section, and then click to remove the check mark from the Play Next Episode Automatically option. Click “Save.” You’ll be returned to your Netflix Account screen, where you’ll see a message at the top of the screen that says your Netflix playback settings have been saved.
