Stop Video Autoplay in iPhone App Store in iOS 11


When you visit App Store to search some good apps for your iPhone or iPad, the default configuration of your iOS 11 device automatically plays the video previews that the apps’ pages may have. Because the video previews consume additional amount of Internet bandwidth, they may slow down other tasks on your iDevice that rely on the Internet.
Although the Video Autoplay feature is automatically turned off temporarily as soon as your device detects low battery or slow Internet speed, you may want to take better control over the feature by configuring its settings more granularly.
Keeping the end-users’ interest in mind, iOS 11 allows you to disable autoplay of the video previews on your device quickly and easily.
Here’s how it can be done:
    Going to the Settings window
    Tap the Settings icon from the Home screen of your iDevice to go to the Settings window. Since the Settings window gives you various options to personalize your iPhone or iPad, most customizations are done from here.

    Opening the iTunes & App Stores window

    Getting to the Video Autoplay window

    Disabling Video Autoplay

From the Video Autoplay window, tap Off. This will keep the video previews from automatically playing while you browse through the apps on App Store. Alternatively, you can tap the Wi-Fi Only option if the Internet bandwidth is a major concern, and you want the video previews to be played only when you are connected to a wireless network, and not while using the mobile cellular data.
