Netflix is currently testing ads between episodes you watch in the video streaming service, which the company calls “surfacing recommendations.”
According to Netflix, the ads are trailers that are meant to help subscribers to discover content more quickly, but because users are accustomed to an ad-free service, this new approach may affect the overall binge watch experience.
If you like to continue Netflix binge without ads, you can configure your account to opt-out of the feature to continue your binge watch without interruptions.
In this guide, you’ll learn the steps to disable the test participation feature to remove ads from Netflix.
How to opt-out of ads on Netflix
To stop getting ads between episodes while binge watching on Netflix, use these steps:
- Open Netflix on a web browser.
- Access a profile.
- Click the profile menu from the top-right corner, and select Account.
- Under “Settings,” click the Test participation link.
- Netflix account settings
- Turn off the Include me in tests and previews toggle switch.
- Netflix disable ads between episodes
- Click the Done button.
Once you’ve completed the steps, you’ll no longer see ads between episodes on Netflix, and opting out will also prevent from participating in future tests.
