Twitter is one of the most popular social media platforms in the world, with millions of monthly active users. So, videos are one of the best ways to show your personality and connect with your audience.

To watch videos on Twitter, you have many options. You can scroll through your timeline, check out Moments, explore the Explore tab, follow trends, or watch live tweets.

However, Twitter users are having issues with video playback.

Twitter videos not loading or loading slow

According to reports, Twitter users say that videos are not loading or if they do, they are loading very slowly for them (1,2,3,4,5,6,7).

As an avid Twitter user, there is nothing more frustrating than trying to watch a video on the platform, only to have it not load or load slowly.

Users have noticed that when they are connected to Wi-Fi, these videos often take longer to load than using their mobile data. Sometimes, they do not load at all, leaving users to refresh the page and try again.

This can be especially frustrating when the video is something a user was really looking forward to watching and really put a damper on the overall user experience.

Users have tried various troubleshooting methods for this problem, from resetting their Wi-Fi connection to restarting their phone. However, none of these seem to work.

We hope that the platform will address this issue and find a solution as soon as possible. For the time being, users can access Twitter using mobile data as it loads fine.

It can be disheartening to miss out on videos and other media shared on the platform simply because of a slow or inconsistent Wi-Fi connection.

Having said that, we’ll keep an eye on this issue and update this article when something noteworthy comes up.
