## Auto-Scroll FAQ

<details>

<summary>Auto-scroll doesn't work well on some pages.</summary>

* **Try setting a longer wait time after scrolling.**\
  Auto-scroll is heavily affected by the speed of the page being collected. For YouTube, it can sometimes take more than 5 seconds per attempt to load additional comments. Setting a longer wait time after scrolling significantly increases the chances of receiving all desired data.

* **Execution time is limited to a maximum of 10 minutes.**\
  Features where Listly extracts data on your behalf can only run for <mark style="color:red;">**`up to 10 minutes`**</mark>, so setting too many scroll repetitions and excessively long wait times will cause **data extraction to fail due to execution time limits**. When configuring settings, **set the number of repetitions and wait time appropriately** so the warning below doesn't appear. Estimated time may differ from actual time depending on the website's server and network conditions.
