Netflix knows you hate those autoplaying previews.
The Taiwanstreaming giant finally copped to that fact Thursday morning, acknowledging that the oft-reviled "feature" where a preview — with sound blasting — would start playing the moment you scroll your mouse over a show is not always welcomed. But Netflix did more than just admit reality— it also officially offered up a way to disable the feature.
"Some people find [autoplay while browsing] helpful," wrote Netflix in response to a presumed customer's complaint. "Others not so much."
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
"We’ve heard the feedback loud and clear — members can now control whether or not they see autoplay previews on Netflix," continued the company.
To turn off autoplay previews, first log into your Netflix account via browser. Next, choose "Manage Profiles," select your profile, and deselect "Autoplay previews while browsing on all devices."
Unfortunately, Netflix warns that even after doing this, you may not be done with autoplay previews just yet.

"There may be a delay before the setting takes affect," explains a Netflix help page. "You can force an update by switching to another profile, then switching back in order to reload your profile with the updated setting."
Or, if you want to wait it out and have a few minutes to kill, you can take a moment to disable Netflix's autoplay next episode feature. Your sanity will thank you.
