YouTube has come up with this new feature of Autoplay, where the next video in the list gets played automatically after 10 seconds. This is nice because you don’t have to click on the next video to play it. It automatically keeps on playing the next video in the list as soon as the one you are watching gets over. But, it can be annoying too because this way you would end up watching back to back videos and waste your time without realizing. So what needs to be done is, the autoplay feature needs to be disabled. Which is pretty easy, you will realize in a minute.

When you are done watching a video on YouTube, you will see the title of the next video in the list and a Black circle with a play button under it. And you will see a White timer going round the circle. This can be seen in the below screenshot. The timer takes about 10 second to complete, at the end of which the next video in the list is played.
