How to stop video autoplay in IOS 11 on iPad

Hi,

I've just upgraded to IOS 11 on my iPad Air 2. I've managed to stop video autoplay in Facebook and Twitter but

Safari doesn't seem to have an option to do this. I've read various articles saying Apple were going to include this

option in IOS 11 but I cannot find it. Can someone please tell me how I can stop these annoying and data busting videos?

Thanks,

Chris

Update : I contacted Apple Support on Twitter about this and here's their reply:

"We appreciate how irritating that can be, but there is currently not a way to turn auto-play off in Safari. Your best bet would be to submit this to our developers: http://apple.co/Feedback We may not reach out to you about it, but we do read the messages we receive."

If anyone else has a similar problem I suggest following the Feedback link provided - if enough people do it Apple might actually do something.

Thanks,

Chris
