# Pause ad when out of view
## The Pause ad when out of view option stops the ad when the player is no longer visible based on your Autoplay visibility setting.
The player's behavior in terms of pausing ads when they are not visible is determined by your [Autoplay when X% in view](https://helpdesk.target-video.com/hc/en-us/articles/13662435831186-autoplay-when-x-in-view?hsLang=en) setting.
The Pause ad when out of view option will halt your ad when the player is out of view by at least the previously specified percentage.
If ad viewability is an important metric for you, we highly recommend activating this setting. This ensures that your ad stays visible when it plays, enhancing ad visibility.
