    Does anyone find the VK app really slow

    I find it's so hard watching videos on VK because the videos start buffering alot even on the lowest quality does anybody else find this ? I might see if it does it on the website to so I can see if it's my internet or the app is bad.

      Yes, very common to see it if you are using the app, I have 2 possible theories for that.
      1- Since VK is a Russian site, maybe the servers are also located in that country, and by defect the data has to travel long distances to our computers/tablets/phones, so that could explain the slow speed.
      2- The app is configured to set slow data speeds because lets be honest.... VK is full of porn, and the app stores are against that kind of apps, you can see the app of VK discourage you to see porn by deleting the option to see the saved videos on other user profiles, so maybe that is the purpose.
      A looner looking for fun, against violence or people with hightened moral idealism…. I just care about loons, so don’t ruin the fun.

        Guys, I live in Russia.
        I use VK app regularly, I can agree that it is sometimes really slow.
        My piece of advice: use VK with VPN app, or when it is late night in Moscow. The app works much faster.

          I'm definitely gonna try it when it's midnight in Moscow I'm really curious now to see if it makes a difference for me. Will try it on my internet browser to. I only posted this to see if anyone else notices it but its great to get this new insight to it.
