Hands-Free Scroll: Auto Scroll

Flour on your fingers, a guitar in your lap, yarn in both hands? Hands-Free Scroll moves the page for you. Lean the phone against something, press play once, and the recipe, chord sheet or knitting pattern rolls on at the pace you set.

● In the kitchen

• A 3, 5 or 10 second countdown gives you time to set the phone down.

• Scroll and pause (Premium): the page moves for 3 to 30 seconds, then rests for 2 to 20 seconds, so the next step stays still while you chop, stir or measure.

• Reverse direction to roll back up to the ingredients.

● At the music stand

• Use scroll and pause to bring up the next lines of a score or tab, then hold them while you play.

• Page flip (Premium): one full screen at a time, every 2 to 60 seconds, like turning pages of a songbook.

• Horizontal mode (Premium) for wide sheets that run sideways.

● For crafts, workouts and reading on the move

• Keep a knitting or sewing pattern moving, or read on the treadmill without reaching for the screen.

• 20 speeds from a slow 0.1× to a fast 5×; hold + or − to change quickly; every start eases in gently, no jolt.

● Start without fiddling

• Widget and launcher shortcut: tap "Show panel and play", open your recipe, and it starts after the countdown.

• Quick Settings tile and notification controls.

• Auto-start (Premium): in apps you choose, scrolling begins after a countdown as soon as you open them. Every app starts switched off.

● A quick touch holds your place

• Touch the screen and the page stops. It carries on by itself after 2 to 10 seconds, or waits until you press play.

• Tap ⤺ to step back a few lines. Hold it to jump to the top or bottom (Premium).

• Double-tap the speed label to swap between a calm reading pace and a quick skim.

● Safe to leave running on the counter

• At the end of the page: stop, pause or keep going; go back to the top and repeat with Premium.

• Battery below 15% and not charging? It stops. Phone getting hot, or 2 hours without a touch? It pauses.

• Sleep timer (Premium): ends after 5 to 60 minutes.

● Set it up once

• Swipe on the left, middle or right of the screen, with short, medium or long strokes; clear of system bars and gesture edges.

• The floating panel shrinks to a dot and fades while scrolling; three sizes; separate spots for portrait and landscape.

• Show the panel everywhere, or only in apps you pick.

• Saved settings per app (speed, mode, direction, page time, lane, stroke length): one app free, every app with Premium.

• Progress ring and reading stats free; reading guide line, time left and pace measuring with Premium.

● Why Hands-Free Scroll needs the Accessibility service

Android only lets an app swipe inside other apps through its Accessibility API. Hands-Free Scroll uses it for one job: performing scroll gestures on your behalf after you start them (play, step back, jump), or after a countdown only in apps where you turned on auto-start. To work, it receives only the name of the app on screen (so the panel and your saved settings appear in the right app) and scroll-position numbers (to stop or repeat at the end and show progress).

• It does not read the words, pictures, passwords or other content on your screen.

• It does not tap, type or do anything beyond the scroll gestures you start.

• It does not collect, store, send or share personal data or screen content.

A disclosure screen explains this and asks for your agreement before you turn the service on.

● Permissions

• Notifications (Android 13+): play and pause from the status bar.

• Internet: ads, Google Play billing, anonymous usage and crash reports.

● Free with ads, or Premium

Everything not marked Premium is free, with ads shown only inside this app. Premium removes ads and unlocks the Premium items above. Choose monthly, yearly or lifetime. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; manage or cancel anytime in Google Play.
