It's not the Autoplay for next video. It's when you scroll through the list on the main page, it kinda previews the video by silently playing them. It drives me nuts. Went through every single setting already. Anyone know how to turn it off?

I remember seeing this a while back and turning off. However, right now I don't see the option and don't have autoplaying thumbnails.

Auto-Play feature is a feature on YouTube service that designed to help to enable a ‘lean back’ experience and keeps videos playing without you having to select a new video when the video that you are watching finishes. This feature on YouTube makes it easier for you to decide what to watch the next. When this feature is enabled on YouTube, another relating video will automatically play after a video ends.

Method 1: Disable AutoPlay on YouTube on Mobile within Settings

Step 1: Open ‘YouTube’ app in your mobile or open YouTube website, and login into your accoun
Step 2: Now, tap your Profile Picture and tap ‘Settings > AutoPlay’
Step 3: You can tap ‘AutoPlay Next Video’ slider to enable or disable the function

Method 2: Disable YouTube AutoPlay on mobile within a video

Step 2: Tap anywhere on the video to reveal the controls
Step 3: The AutoPlay Slider is located along the top, next to ‘Cast, Subtitle/CC’ and settings button. Tap the slider to toggle the function to OFF.

I read about this on the web and 'https://techsmagic.com/how-to-turn-...bile-iphone-home-screen-while-scrolling-steps' is discussed it, and it helps for you. Thanks
