Usage


Basic use

Once the extension is loaded and you are on Instagram Reels, it works automatically:

  1. Open https://www.instagram.com/reels/ in Firefox.
  2. The extension starts enabled — the toolbar badge shows ON.
  3. When a Reel finishes playing, the page scrolls to the next one.
  4. Sponsored Reels are skipped automatically.

No configuration is required.


Toolbar toggle

Action Result
Click toolbar button (when ON) Disables auto-scroll; badge disappears
Click toolbar button (when OFF) Enables auto-scroll; badge shows ON

The toggle applies globally — it affects all open Instagram tabs immediately without requiring a page refresh.


Scope

The content script only attaches scrolling behaviour on these URL paths:

  • instagram.com/reels/
  • instagram.com/reel/

Visiting other Instagram pages (your feed, profile, DMs, etc.) will not trigger any extension behaviour.


Preference persistence

Your last toggle state is saved in Firefox extension storage. It will be restored the next time you open Firefox and load the extension. If no preference has been saved yet, the extension defaults to enabled.
