Turn off Disney Plus background videos and autoplay

This time we will give you instructions on how to disable Disney Plus videos. And like Netflix, Disney Plus makes it easier to watch a show or any movie by automatically playing the next episode when you just watched the previous one.

Now, if you don’t like this feature, you can disable automatic playback along with the application’s ability to play background Disney Plus videos on the homepage and throughout the application. Of course, we will tell you how to do it in a few simple steps.

Turn off automatic playback on iPhone, iPad and Android

At the launch of the Disney Plus app, it does not appear to show background videos on the homepage automatically. In this way, the only setting you can disable is the automatic playback function.

First, you must open the “Disney Plus” application on your Android device, iPhone or on your iPad. Then, you must press the profile tab in the lower right corner. When you are in that section, select the button called “Edit profiles”.

Now, press the profile in which you want to disable autoplay videos. Unfortunately, this setting must be manually disabled for each profile. So there is no option in the entire app so you can disable it completely.

Now, all you have to do is disable the “AutoPlay” option and then press the “Save” button.

With the settings disabled, you must now press the next video of a series or program manually. In this way, the Disney Plus application will no longer pass the next episode automatically.

In this case, if you are watching Disney Plus using a web browser on Windows, macOS or Linux operating systems. You can disable automatic playback and background videos following a route similar to that of mobile apps.

To start, move the mouse over your avatar in the upper right corner and then click on the “Edit profiles” button. When you are here, click on the profile you want to customize. Again, as in the app, the settings must be manually disabled for each profile. So there is no option in the entire configuration to disable everything in a general way.

Now, click on the lever next to the “Auto Play” and “Background Video” option to disable each option. Then, click on the “Save” button.
