Slow loading of Internet and social media apps

[Android Central Question]

Why does my mate 20 pro load everything so slowly on social media apps and sometimes browsing if I'm trying to load a story on instagram it takes ages or sometimes doesn't even load, I've reinstalled apps took sim out forget network settings etc and still hadn't fixed this problem, this is literally turning into the worst phone I've ever bought

2. Are you using mobile data or WiFi? (There are different things to try for each.)

3. Is this only on social media apps, or all downloads? Have you checked your internet speed? Speedtest by Ookla will do that for you.

Welcome to Android Central! If this only happens on certain wi-fi networks, then it's possible the network administrator is throttling certain sites like social media (which might happen on work or school wi-fi networks).
