According to Netflix, there are two main reasons why you\u2019ll get asked if you are still watching. The first is to stop wasting bandwidth or data by streaming the show while you\u2019re not really watching. This is especially true if you use a mobile device. If you\u2019re streaming Netflix shows<\/a> using mobile data, every megabyte counts. Some network providers impose limitations on how much data you can use. If you go over it, they will charge higher rates.\n<\/p>\n\n\n Another reason is so you don\u2019t lose track of your show and waste energy in case you doze off, or leave the room. Imagine if you fall asleep while watching your favorite show and it plays for several hours in the background. It\u2019s hard to remember where you stopped watching so you can go back to it and your devices are wasting energy during that time.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n No matter the reason, the \u201cAre You Still Watching?\u201d feature annoys a lot of people. So here\u2019s how to deal with it. There are several ways to handle it, but none of them is Netflix actually giving you the option to turn off the \u201cAre You Still Watching?\u201d feature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Related:<\/strong> Learn what to do if Netflix is stuck on a black screen<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Turning off the autoplay feature is the most obvious and straightforward solution to the annoying \u201cAre You Still Watching?\u201d problem. This way, the following episode won\u2019t start automatically. You\u2019ll have to intentionally play it and once you turn the autoplay off, you\u2019ll no longer be bothered by the prompt. Here\u2019s what you need to do:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note that if you want to turn off autoplay for all your profiles, you\u2019ll have to follow these steps for each of them separately. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the best option for all of the users who prefer streaming Netflix on mobile phones, both Android and iPhone. Since your phone is always with you, it is easy to manually tap play whenever you need to play the next episode. But you\u2019ll have to use the browser to turn off the autoplay option because you can\u2019t access it through the Netflix app.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are several web browser extensions that can make your Netflix experience more satisfying. Some of them will also help you get rid of the \u201cAre You Still Watching?\u201d feature. If you\u2019re using Google Chrome, or another browser that supports extensions, choose Netflix Pause Removal, which is also available for Mozilla Firefox. If you want to try another useful extension, check out Never Ending Netflix. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s it. The extension will work automatically and you can now watch your favorite Netflix TV shows without interruptions.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Go to Netflix and stream TV shows and movies with no interruptions.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can stream Netflix on Roku and the Fire TV Stick<\/a>, but the bad news is that Netflix won\u2019t allow you to disable the \u201c<\/span>Are You Still Watching?\u201d<\/span> feature. But there are some methods you can use to prevent the prompt from appearing. \n<\/p>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nTurn Off Autoplay\n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
