Auto play

Hi everyone or anyone, is it possible to have the next episode play automatically as is the case with Netflix and now Sky. So I have found something called binge mode. Needless to say cannot find it now! I'm using the Now TV app on my LG smart TV but also have the app on my laptop and iPad Pro. So yes any help much appreciated. I'm left wondering if the binge mode, was something to do with auto play?! X

November 2022 and still looking for this basic feature.  Also sick of paying money to view then watching ads, getting paid twice.

@Flutter 

Are you talking the promos for Sky/NOW content that lasts around 30 seconds? 
Or are you referring to live TV with adverts?

If it’s the latter this will never go away regardless of boost or not. As boost is designed to take away third party adverts from on demand only.

No I’m talking about recorded shows I’m watching, in this current case season 3 of Manifest, which is an old season as season 4 has been released

Recorded shows? 
Are you a BT customer?

Recorded shows from Live TV will still have adverts.

No I’m not and you likely knew that due to me paying now tv. Anyway, seems it’s unlikely you can help. Thanks

You can’t record shows unless your with BT.

How on earth would I have known you pay direct to NOW? As I am not staff.

It’s simple, you mentioned recording shows. 
That means your recording live Tv which comes with adverts.

 

Boost takes away adverts from on demand ONLY. And that is only third party adverts from on demand, promos for Sky/NOW content at the start is not going anywhere anytime soon.

Is it really too much trouble to simply select the next episode?

Toddler, Peppa Pig, yes.

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it. Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now. That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.
This week, I are genrally been watching epsidoes on my Sasmung TV

@gavs82008 

A terminology issue only. @Flutter likely means On Demand, as contrasted with Live, but has used the word Recorded for this instead.

And likely means Promos, not Ads. @Flutter  is your viewing interrupted by ads (for third-party commercial products like washing-up liquid), or merely preceded by promos for other Now programmes?

It’s a real pain that these are unskippable, though.
