Netflix has finally caved on one of its most criticized features: the previews that automatically play while browsing for something to watch.
And they’ve made the process pretty painless, too.
Just sign in to your Netflix account from a web browser, click on “manage profiles” and then choose the profile you want to update. Deselect “autoplay previews while browsing on all devices” and you’re set.
While you’re there, you can also stop another form of autoplay. When one episode of a show ends, Netflix will automatically play the next one. Deselecting “autoplay next episode in a series on all devices” will put an end to that.
Twitter users savored the long-awaited victory over autoplay:
I know it's been a crazy year already. But today you can hold your loved ones close and tell them we did it. @netflix is finally allowing us to turn off autoplay previews while browsing. pic.twitter.com/KrnagqiLDA
In tribute to Netflix turning off autoplay on previews I'm going to start screaming constantly, all the time, ignoring any attempts to stop me, and then demand praise when I finally FINALLY decide to stop.
