# Auto-scroll

One of the key features of Reader Mode is the Auto-scroll feature, which allows users to automatically scroll through articles for easier reading.

With Auto-scroll, users can set the speed at which they want the article to scroll, allowing them to read at their own pace. This feature eliminates the need to manually scroll down the page, which can be a tedious and distracting process. Instead, the article will smoothly scroll down the page at a pace that is comfortable for the user, allowing them to focus on the content without any interruptions.

1. On [Reader Mode Toolbar](/using-reader-mode/reader-mode/reader-mode-toolbar.md), click on `Scroll` icon button and the page will scroll automatically
2. To stop auto-scrolling, simply click the `Scroll` button again
