Delay in typing

[Believeitornot]

Why oh why is there such a delay in typing messages on the mobile site? There’s a massive lag and if I go too quickly, my auto correct goes insane.
This is only an issue on MN.

Is it all the adverts? When I use MN, it runs my battery down very quickly so I avoid it a lot more now. I hardly use MN on a PC so would like a slicker mobile site.

Hello there OP, we're sorry you're having problems with the site.
Can we ask what device and browser you're using please, and double check you're using the mobile site rather than the app? We'll try and figure out what's happening here. Thanks.

Are you using an apple device? Google 'laggy ipad' or whatever and de-lag accordingly. IME (extensive!!) it is the device not MN.

It’s an iPhone and I am using google
I don’t have this issue on other websites but then again I don’t do a huge amount of typing on other ones!

This website does drain my battery though.

I’ll look at laggy iPhones, thanks @FlibbertyGiblets

Almost certainly the delay is with your device, because it shouldn't be sending the characters individually to MN.
Could you be suffering from the notorious Apple 'slowing down of older devices' effect?

Well maybe! But I don’t notice the problem on other sites (have just tried)

I’ll try the delagging suggestions and see where I get to!

Hi OP. It does sound like a device issue to be honest but we've passed all this on to Tech anyway and if they have any advice we'll let you know.
