Ever since TikTok was banned in India, Instagram Reels has taken the social media world by storm. Now, only the name of reels is on everyone's tongue. People keep scrolling day and night, and this habit has had a bad effect on our mental health. Now, in the meantime, information is coming out that Instagram is introducing a new Auto Scroll feature, which can further increase the addiction to watching reels. Read about this feature here.

What is the Auto Scroll feature?

Some social media users have shared screenshots on Facebook, Threads, and X, in which a new option called Auto Scroll is visible in Instagram. As soon as you turn on this feature, you will not have to scroll the reel manually. The screen will automatically keep playing reels one after the other. It looks exactly like Netflix's Auto Play feature.

But is this feature real?

No such official details have been revealed by Instagram at the moment. At present, this feature is seen only in rumors.

What will be the effect if this feature comes?
If Instagram really brings the Auto Scroll feature, then it can be even more harmful for the users. This will increase screen time, mental fatigue and stress, the habit of distraction, and social media addiction can be quite a lot among children and youngsters.

As mentioned above, at present, there are only screenshots and discussions about Instagram's Auto Scroll feature. There is no official confirmation for this.

But if such a feature comes, then it can also prove to be the biggest and worst feature in the history of social media. Which can also prove to be bad for the habits and mental health of young users. This can also be another trick to keep users connected to the platform.
