IG Media Controls

About

Take full control of Instagram videos and Reels.

Tired of Instagram's limited video controls? IG Media Controls adds a full set of media controls to every video on Instagram — Reels, feed posts, Explore, and single post views.

Features: • Play / Pause with a single click • Seekable progress bar with current time and duration • Volume slider with mute toggle — your volume preference is saved • Playback speed control (0.5x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x) • Skip forward and backward (5s or 10s, configurable) • Controls auto-hide when not hovering — clean, non-intrusive design

Design: • Sleek, dark semi-transparent overlay that blends with Instagram's UI • Appears on hover, fades out when you move away • Doesn't interfere with Instagram's normal functionality

Preferences that stick: • Your volume and mute state are remembered across videos and sessions • Choose your default playback speed • Set skip interval to 5 or 10 seconds • Option to always show controls without hovering • One-click toggle to enable or disable the extension

Privacy: • No data collection — preferences are stored locally on your device • Only runs on instagram.com • No analytics, no tracking, no third-party connections

Works reliably on Instagram's dynamic interface. Lightweight, fast, and built for daily use.
