They’ve listened, Netflix have! The streaming giant, after relentless complains from viewers announced that they’ve “heard the feedback loud and clear,” the constant complains for the annoying ‘autoplay previews’ following which they have enabled users the ability to decide whether they want to see previews of content automatically playing on the Netflix home screen.
‘Some people find this feature helpful. Others not so much. We’ve heard the feedback loud and clear — members can now control whether or not they see autoplay previews on Netflix’ they tweeted while sharing a link of the direction on how to do so.
