Reels Scrolling On Their Own? It's Not a Glitch; Instagram Is Testing New Auto-Scroll Feature
By default, this feature is turned off. To enable it, tap the three-dot menu below the share icon and toggle on Auto-Scroll. Moreover, Instagram has already introduced a new feature called Blend, designed to offer a more personalized and shared Reels experience. According to the company, Blend creates a unique feed of Instagram Reels, curated based on content recommendations tailored to both users involved.

The feature is located within the chat section of the app. To start a Blend, one person must send an invite, which the other must accept—meaning it requires mutual consent from both accounts before the shared feed is created.
How To Activate Blend Feature On Android and iOS
Step 1: Open Instagram and navigate to a chat — this can be either a one-on-one conversation or a group chat.
Step 2: In the chat window, tap the Blend icon located in the top right corner.
Step 3: A preview screen will appear, showing what the Blend feature includes. Tap Invite to send the invitation.
Step 4: The other person (or group members) must accept the invite. Once accepted, the Blend will be created and a shared Reels feed will be generated based on both users' interests.

New York restaurateur Keith McNally regrets attacking James Corden, says 'I don't like to be forced to enjoy myself'
Keith McNally, the renowned restaurant owner who's made a name for himself in New York City's culinary scene, is currently promoting his upcoming memoir 'I Regret Almost Everything.' As part of his promotional efforts, McNally did an interview with CBS News, where he spoke about his various life struggles, including a debilitating stroke that struck him in 2016 and left him temporarily paralyzed, as well as permanently affecting his speech. McNally also spoke of his infamous Instagram feud with James Corden, expressing some regret over it, and revealed that he resented New Year's Eve because, as he put it, "I don't like to be forced to enjoy myself." Keith McNally reflects on beef with James Corden Among the things McNally reminisced on was his publicly putting James Corden on blast on Instagram during October 2022, where he accused Corden for misbehaving with his staff after getting a wrong order. Corden was banned from McNally's restaurants for a while as a consequence, but Keith has expressed some level of regret at publicly putting him on blast, stating that he himself had become self-conscious about public humiliation as a result of his stroke, and felt that he'd unwittingly subjected James Corden to something similar. Keith McNally also opened up about an especially dark time in his life when he was struggling to recover from his stroke. Having struggled with the paralysis of his dominant right hand and a persistent speech impediment, McNally eventually attempted suicide two years after his stroke. He was saved by his younger son, George, who woke up earlier than usual and saved his father's life. Keith then revealed that his doctor told him about how children are far more likely to attempt suicide if their parents died by suicide, something that has stuck with him since. Keith McNally comes from humble beginnings Keith McNally hails from a modest, working class background. He was one among four children of Jack, a dockworker, and Joyce, a house and office cleaner. McNally reflected on the difficult upbringing he had due to his working class roots: "I got angry inside at my parents. because we had no books in the house, no pictures on the walls. But they couldn't help it. They were working class who grew up with nothing." Keith McNally's 'I Regret Almost Everything' will be published by Simon and Schuster.
