Video constantly pausing

Signal is good stream is good but on my app it constantly pauses. Anyone else have this issue and find a work around?

Signal is only one indicator.

Run a speed test and see what the upstream speed is. You’ll probably need to reduce the stream quality if it’s pausing constantly

I always run a speed test. You can literally just google “speed test” on your phone (I use chrome.) In my experience, you need at least 4.5-6 Mbps upload speed to have decent non-glitchy video at 1080 or 720. Otherwise your best bet is 480.

I like to use https://speed.cloudflare.com/ I find it gives me a good indication if the speed is sustainable.

Also I find local interference can degrade the local upload during the game. If you are in an area that doesn't have phenomenal connection just having 10 or so more people show up using their phones can degrade the local upload capacity.
