Instagram's Auto-Scroll feature lets Reels play without manually swiping

Open Instagram and tap the Reels tab to start browsing videos.

Open any Reel and let it begin playing normally.

Tap the three-dot menu (...) in the bottom-right corner of the Reel.

Select Auto-scroll from the menu options that appear.

Turn the feature ON and Instagram will automatically move to the next Reel when the current one ends.

If you want to stop automatic scrolling, just follow the same.
