How to Auto Scroll on Websites

Learn how to use Helperbird's auto scroll on websites. Complete guide for improving web accessibility and reading support.

What is Auto Scroll?

Auto Scroll makes the page scroll automatically at a steady pace. Instead of manually scrolling with your mouse or keyboard, the page moves down on its own.

You can adjust the speed to match how fast you read.


Who is This For?

This feature is helpful for:

  • People who want hands-free reading
  • Anyone with motor difficulties that make scrolling hard
  • People who want to focus on reading without interruptions
  • Students reading long articles or documents
  • Anyone who prefers a consistent reading pace

Step 1: Open Helperbird

Click the Helperbird icon in your browser toolbar. It looks like a small owl and is usually in the top-right corner of your browser.

This will open the Helperbird menu.


Step 2: Open the All Features Section

Scroll down to the bottom of the Helperbird menu. You will see a section called All Features.

Click the arrow next to All Features to expand it and show all available features.


Step 3: Find Tools

Look through the list of features until you see Tools.


Step 4: Open Tools

Click on Tools to open it.

A panel will appear showing various tools you can use.


Step 5: Turn on Auto Scroll

In the Tools panel, look for Auto scroll.

Click the toggle switch next to it to turn it on. The toggle will turn green when it is enabled.

The page will immediately start scrolling down automatically.


Step 6: Adjust the Speed

Once Auto scroll is turned on, a slider will appear below the toggle.

Drag the slider to adjust how fast the page scrolls:

  • Slide to the left to scroll slower
  • Slide to the right to scroll faster

Find a speed that matches your comfortable reading pace.

Tip: Start with a slower speed and increase it as you get used to auto-scrolling. You can click anywhere on the page or press any key to pause the scrolling temporarily.

Have an amazing collection of assistive tools that have benefits for everyone. For me, the combination of Microsoft's Immersive Reader and Apple's reading machine voice (US Alex) makes Helperbird my first choice for processing web content.
