When we mention slow videos on Snapchat , we can refer to two things, on the one hand, the problem that your phone may have with slow playback of these videos on this social network and on the other, completely different, the new tool that Snapchat offers to be able to manually put your slow videos or also known by the name of slow motion.
We go each of these cases

Videos are slow to play on my Snapchat
If the videos on your Snapchat or those of your friends are playing slowly, it can be due to many factors:
Insufficient internet megabytes
If you do not have enough megabytes in your carrier or you are connected from a slow WiFi line, it will be impossible for you to comfortably watch Snapchat videos, they may become slow in the middle or not even load.
What you can do to solve this problem is to connect from a fast WiFi section, such as a mall or restaurant.
Lack of space on your mobile
If the videos on your Snapchat are playing slow, it may also be because your mobile phone does not have enough space.
To fix it, try to delete some applications that you no longer use or transfer your files from your internal memory to your computer or usb.
Excess applications running
You should not have more than 10 applications open at the same time, unless you have a very powerful mobile phone, if not, it is recommended that you close those applications that you do not use.
Your device doesn’t support Snapchat
We have to accept it, there are still some people who do not have the economic possibility of acquiring a high-end mobile phone, if you are using a Chinese or poor quality mobile phone, it is possible that Snapchat runs slow, not only in videos, but also in all other functions.
The only thing we can recommend is that you give up using Snapchat on your mobile or buy another.
Application problem
It does not always have to be your or your mobile’s fault, at times, the videos may be slow if Snapchat has been updated or is having an error.
Video settings for your contact
And finally, and although it may sound quite obvious, you may be watching a slow video on Snapchat because that contact or friend used the slow motion option in their video, therefore, even if all your equipment is fine, you will not be able to see the video with a normal speed.
Activate Snapchat videos in slow motion
Snapchat has a few little known filters: slow motion, fast motion, and rewind. They are hardly used for the same reason that they do not stand out on the platform. However, the results are very good after applying this option to our videos.
- Launch the Snapchat app
- Record your video
- Swipe the screen with your finger
- Various filters will appear
- Look at the symbols in the image below
- The first is rewind, the second slow bed and the third fast motion

Final recommendation:
If even after you’ve done all of the above to fix the slow videos error on Snapchat, you still can’t fix it, we recommend doing the following:
- Restart your mobile phone
- Go to> settings> applications> Snapchat> force stop
- Free the cache
- Uninstall the Snapchat app
- Download and install an older version to your phone (If you are mid-range)
- If your cell phone is high-end, download the latest version of Snapchat
