How to Disable Autoplay Videos in Your iOS Devices?

Most of the social media apps and streaming services have a feature called Autoplay Videos. On some apps or websites, the autoplay feature is quite beneficial.

It's great when you can open Netflix and binge your favorite show without needing to change each episode manually. It automatically switches at the end of the episode. Or maybe you scroll through an Instagram feed, and you can watch videos instantly without needing to start it yourself.

On the other hand, autoplay videos can irritate you as well as eat up a lot of mobile data. Fortunately, you can turn off autoplay videos for all native Apple apps on your device as well as individual apps like Instagram, Facebook, and others.
