Need an option for turning OFF auto video loading[REQ] #653

Turn off feature for auto video loading Every time there is a video on the timeline it starts dowloading automatically. Not everyone is having unlimited internet and its just a waste of internet data pack, so an option to turn ON or OFF the feature will be really halpful.

Describe the solution you'd like A button in the setting section to turn on or turn off the auto downloading of videos.

I second this. I just added a bunch of subscriptions and scrolled through the feed mindlessly without clicking anything only to find out that the app has been auto loading every single video. It wiped out 1GB data from auto loaded videos that I never clicked or watched or ever had the intention of watching.

I solved it by simply using thumbsnails, they suffice my demands completely. Have you ever tried this instead?
