Like Netflix, Disney Plus makes it easier than ever to binge-watch TV shows by automatically starting a new episode once the current one is finished.

But you may want to turn that feature off to avoid accidentally burning through your monthly allotment and paying extra, even if you're binging on your TV at home.

If you want to turn off autoplay entirely to prevent a similar situation from occurring, here's how to do it. Launch the Disney Plus app on your mobile device, computer, or television and choose your profile.
