Galaxy S9 SeriesVery pleased with phone but when I 1st set up I selected autoplay videos when going through the gallery, it slows down browsing a tad and plays vids when I'm not ready. How do you stop them from auto playing.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

Galaxy S9 SeriesHi I have the same problem.
I found the setting to switch the video autoplay in the gallery off but it still wont stop to autoplay the videos and it mutes the videos when it starts. I even restarted my S9 but nothing works.
I am so frustrated with this. Please help me
Thank you

Galaxy S9 SeriesI must say the settings for this phone are not very direct at all but I did find where to shut off video auto play. Open up a video on your phone. Any video and let it start playing. You will see the vertical 3 dots up in the right hand corner of the videos screen. Click on it and select settings in the drop down menu. It will take you to the video player settings where you can switch off autoplay. Let me know if this helps.

Galaxy S9 SeriesHi, it turned off autoplay for the next video, the video still plays but silent.
I also tried turning autoplay off on Facebook which works with Facebook videos but not videos on my phone.

Galaxy S9 SeriesThis worked for me.... Go to the 3 bars in the top right hand corner in Facebook, select the dropdown for Settings & Privacy, then select Data Saver, tick the Data Saver box, & unclick the Always Turn off data saver when on WiFi.

Galaxy S9 SeriesThis is on my S9. I hope there is another way.
It would be great if someone knows hoe to disable auto preview before you hit the play button

Galaxy S9 Serieshi have you found a solution to your problem. i have the same problem on my s20+ and i also see the same video player settings as you. i am also hoping to off the auto preview so that it does not interfere with me continuing the video where i left off

Galaxy S9 SeriesI have a S9. When in gallery the videos are auto-playing. I have tried your suggestion but i dont see the option of turning off the auto-play ????

Galaxy S9 SeriesI have a J6 and can't turn off autoplayback.
I've tried (as suggested) the three little dots but it doesn't give me a settings option only DETAILS; SET AS WALLPAPER and SHOW DATE AND LOCATION TAGS. Is there another way to get to Video Settings?
Can anyone help, I've noticed other people had the same problem, did you ever get to the bottom of it?

Galaxy S9 SeriesHey there,
Yes I did get to the bottom of it. I spoke with Samsung Stars and long story short, it's an automatic feature that previews your videos when you play from gallery.
I hope that helps!

Galaxy S9 SeriesTeee
Thanks for the answer, it explains a lot.
It helps but doesn't, if you know what I mean. I don't want videos autoplay, can't understand why company's think that what they do is always for the best
Thanks anyway
