Believe it or not, most of our time-consuming content is spent on videos. It’s important to know that the network you’re connected to can give you the best video experience possible.

Thanks to Ookla’s Speedtest app, you can now measure the quality of your streaming experience on your network at any time. This is necessary because video streaming can perform differently than the rest of the things you do on the internet and can provide a slower viewing experience, even if your internet has a fast download speed.

In this post, we'll explain the latest video streaming test on Speedtest, how it can improve your streaming experience, and how you can use it to test your own network.

The latest addition to Speedtest is a new benchmark that tests your network’s video streaming performance. This benchmark then gives you the load time, max resolution, and buffering you can expect from your current network.
