Question Any scrolling app that auto-scrolls to left and right?

[WhatWhere]

I know there are lots of apps that automatically scrolls upward or downward. But is there any app that makes it automatic to repeatedly scroll leftward or rightward on a position that the user specified on the screen?

Welcome to Android Central forums.

Have you checked the Play Store? I've never heard of an automatic scrolling app and have no idea what it would be useful for but the very first app I found in my search shows it scrolling to the left and right in the screenshots for the app. There may be others but here is my find.

Automatic Scroll - Apps on Google Play

Automatically Scroll the content on your phone screen without having to touch.

Thank you. This app was also what I first tried, but didn't work. I found that there are some apps that make the user just flexibly perform an action to record the action, and then the app will repeat it.

IDK if you consider yourself tech savvy or not, and IDK how much effort you're willing to put in but you could try Tasker. I'm sure whatever these apps do, still not sure why anyone would need an app that scrolls for them, but they have to work on some type of logical execution, I'm assuming scroll every few seconds or something, but with the right extensions Tasker can probably do this. It would require some effort to program the profile but you may also find it more flexible than someone else's idea of how it should work. Tasker can also help with your session limit thing, with its ability to open and close apps based on timers, time of day, location and more. Perhaps if you were into something productive like coding you would feel less addicted to your device since it wouldn't be pointless surfing. No offense, you may not consider it pointless surfing but that's what comes to mind when people talk about limiting screen time. Anyway, Tasker becomes a skill with a little effort.

Good luck.
