My IPad scrolls on its own when browsing on Facebook, how do I stop it?

Hello scooter0711,
Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you've noticed your iPad appear to scroll on its own with Facebook only, right?
If that is correct, let's confirm that you have the latest app updates installed with the steps of this resource: How to manually update apps on your Apple device - Apple Support
In addition, you'll want to be sure you have the latest iPadOS version installed to see if that may be related to what's occurring. We'll include the steps below to help with backing up and updating your iPad, and you can also review additional steps here: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
Update your iPhone or iPad wirelessly
1. Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.
2. Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.
3. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update.
4. If you see more than one software update option available, choose the one that you want to install.
5. Tap Install Now. If you see Download and Install instead, tap it to download the update, enter your passcode, then tap Install Now. If you don't know your passcode, learn what to do.
If you're still experiencing this with the latest updates, you may need to contact Facebook support directly for assistance as this is isolated to that app only. For help with contacting an app developer, check out this resource: How to contact an app developer - Apple Support
We hope that's able to help.
Have a great day!
