How does internet speed differs from one app to another?

697 views

Very often I can watch videos in Full HD on YT, browse Instagram without any problem but can’t browse some apps or play some games, even though when I test the internet speed it says that it’s very fast.

Your overall connection to a service is only as fast as the slowest lane that gets you there.

When using an app, the information from your end has to go from your device, over the internet through many other devices, to the servers of the app.

Even if you have a good connection, if the connections in the middle or the speed to the servers on the end are slow, your overall connection will be slow.

It’s like traveling. If you’re trying to get from your house to work, if the only paths to work have a lot of traffic, you’re gona get there slower.
