Your carrier might, most do, throttle streaming video. Some are 480p or 720p. This can cause buffering or issues if trying to play a higher res video. One way to tell is do a Speedtest on http://fast.com This is Netflix’s Speedtest site and most plans consider this streaming. It should show you your streaming download speed. Some carriers, AT&T for one, have a setting you can adjust and change the streaming bandwidth.

Google wants you to think it's the phone's fault so you switch back to Android.

Do you have an ad blocker on? Because then it’ll stay black until the ad time is over. Making it seem like it takes forever

This happened for a while for me on the YouTube app, despite being 5 feet away from my 5GHz router on a gigabit internet connection.

It just went away after a while 🤷🏻‍♂️

I find that everything seems to load slower on 5G, despite speed tests showing it’s faster. I just turned off 5G on my phone and everything loads immediately now.

Do you have other apps running in the background that use Internet as well?
