About ReelSlider — Video Controls, Auto-Scroll & Downloader

========================================= ReelSlider - Seek, Speed, Download & Volume Controls for Instagram ========================================= Instagram gives you no way to seek, skip, slow down, or download a Reel — ReelSlider fixes that. Add a real seek bar, playback speed control, media downloading, and volume memory to every Reel, Story, Feed post, and video on Instagram. Whether you want to speed up a slow Reel, download a carousel of high-quality photos, slow down a fast talker, or skip ahead on a long Story, ReelSlider gives Instagram the same controls YouTube and Netflix already have — completely free, with no account and no data collection. ✦ WHY PEOPLE INSTALL REELSLIDER ----------------------------------------- • Can't seek or skip on Instagram Reels? Click or drag the timeline to jump anywhere in the video. • Want to save posts and videos? A native download button gets you the highest-quality version of any Reel, video, or photo post directly to your device. • Want to speed up or slow down an Instagram Reel? Set playback speed anywhere from 0.25x to 2.0x — remembered automatically next time. • Tired of Instagram resetting your volume every time you scroll? Set a custom default volume that sticks across sessions. • Annoyed by sound turning back on as you scroll? Mute Memory keeps your mute/unmute choice as you move between videos. • Scrolling too much? Set a Daily Instagram Limit to cap your usage, complete with an auto-pause break screen. ✦ KEY FEATURES ----------------------------------------- • Seek & Scrub — click or drag the timeline on any Instagram Reel, Story, Feed post, or Profile video. • One-Click Downloading — instantly download high-quality videos and photo posts straight to your device. • Playback Speed Control — slow down or speed up Instagram Reels from 0.25x to 2.0x, saved automatically. • On-Screen Speed UI — see your playback speed in a sleek popup when using keyboard shortcuts. • Custom Default Volume — set your preferred volume once; it persists across every session. • Mute Memory — your mute/unmute preference carries over as you scroll Reels. • Daily Instagram Limit — stay mindful with a customizable daily usage cap (e.g. 1h/day). • Works Everywhere — Reels, Stories, Feed, Posts, and Profile tabs, all with the same controls. ✦ POWER-USER KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS ----------------------------------------- • [Space] Play / Pause • [A] or [←] Seek backward 3 seconds • [D] or [→] Seek forward 3 seconds • [W] / [S] Increase / Decrease playback speed • [Shift+W] Hold for temporary 2.0x max speed • [Shift+S] Hold for temporary 0.5x slow speed • [M] Mute / Unmute • [F] Toggle fullscreen ✦ 100% FREE & OPEN SOURCE — ZERO DATA COLLECTED ----------------------------------------- ReelSlider runs entirely in your browser. No data is collected, stored, or sent anywhere. No account, no sign-up, no tracking, no Pro tier — every feature is free, forever. The full source code is public on GitHub. ----------------------------------------- If you've ever wanted a seek bar, download button, speed control, or volume control on Instagram — ReelSlider is built for exactly that.
