Youtube Autoplay Keeps Turning On : Learn How to Turn Auto-Play Off

The auto-play feature on YouTube enables a ‘lean back’ experience and keeps videos playing without you having to select a new video when the video that you’re watching finishes.

You can choose to turn off the auto-play feature at any time using the toggle option available on the watch page

Auto-play: You can choose to turn off the auto-play feature at any time.

The Autoplay feature on YouTube makes it easier to decide what to watch next. When Autoplay is on, another related video will automatically play after a video ends.

Keep in mind:

  • For users aged 13-17 on YouTube, Autoplay is turned off by default. If you’re 18 or over, Autoplay is turned on by default. All users can change their Autoplay settings.
  • You can have different Autoplay settings for different devices. For example, you can set Autoplay to be “On” in the YouTube app on your mobile device, but set it to “Off” when watching YouTube on your computer.
  • If you’re connected to a mobile network, Autoplay will stop automatically if you’ve been inactive for 30 minutes. If you’re on Wi-Fi, Autoplay will stop automatically after 4 hours.

At the end of a video, the video player will show what’s going to play next. If you scroll past the video player or type something, like a comment or a search, the next video won’t automatically play.
