How to Stop Videos Automatically Scrolling on X (Twitter)
X (formerly Twitter) has introduced a video feature that is similar to YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. However, while watching x videos, as soon as the video ends, it automatically scrolls to the next video. This auto-scroll video feature can be distracting and waste data.
But there is nothing to worry about. Because in the X app you get full control to stop the video from auto-scrolling. In this article, I have explained how you can stop videos from automatically scrolling to the next video on X on your Android or iPhone.
