How to Enable or Disable Autoplay on Netflix  ?

What is Netflix Autoplay?

Netflix has two types of autoplay features:

1. Autoplay Next Episode – Automatically plays the next episode in a series.

2. Autoplay Previews – Automatically plays previews while browsing content.

How to Enable or Disable Autoplay (On TV)

You cannot change autoplay settings directly from the Netflix TV app. These settings must be updated through a web browser, but they will apply to all devices — including your TV.

Step-by-Step Guide 

1. Open a Web Browser

Go to:👉 https://www.netflix.com
and sign in to your Netflix account.

2. Go to ‘Manage Profiles’

Hover over your profile icon (top-right) and click on “Manage Profiles.”

3. Select Your Profile

Click on the profile for which you want to change autoplay settings.

4. Update Autoplay Settings

You’ll see two options:

• Autoplay next episode in a series on all devices
  
  

• Autoplay previews while browsing on all devices

5. Click Save

Once done, click Save to apply changes. Your new settings will take effect immediately, including on your smart TV.
