User reviews
A recent update made videos in stories keep looping rather than auto advancing to the next story -- if you had the "loop videos" setting turned on. However, turning it off means videos in reels and posts no longer loop as intended.
I'd like a separate setting to keep looping reels/posts but NOT stories, like how it was before the recent update.
