[SOLVED] Quibi Disconnecting – What Can I Do?

Welcome to the family, Quibi!  Alongside Netflix, Hulu, HBO and Disney+, Quibi is here to offer us a service specifically designed for our cell phones.  Perfect timing with your home having a “No Vacancy” sign lit. iPhones and Androids can enjoy clarity many say is unfounded until now.  

Ten minute or less episodes for us to enjoy in between the many other duties we have at home. This will come in handy – just think of it as a nice timer while prepping dinner or when you are on your stationary bike getting some mileage in. PCMag offers a sneak preview of the launch lineup in their dedicated article. You’ll be able to watch Quibi using the iOS or Android app. “Turnstyle” lets a user switch effortlessly between horizontal and vertical viewing. 

Very exciting but let’s remember, as with other streaming platforms, disconnecting is never welcome.  There is a way to keep stuttering, buffering or even disconnects a safe distance from your connection.  Before this happens, read on to see how you can easily avoid Quibi disconnecting and enjoy your quick bites of content (that’s where the name Quibi hails from)!

To put it simply – it’s either their fault or yours. But just to eliminate the possibility – check out Quibi’s Twitter page for any announcements about outages. If everything is fine there, it’s you.

This means:

• it may be your ISP – they can have temporary network issues, do maintenance work or deliver sub par Internet. If the Internet is slow on other platforms as well, contact your ISP.
• it may be your modem / router – a restart is always welcome and might save you a lot of time and head aches.
• your smartphone might be acting out – there might be software conflicts or other apps running that hog the bandwidth.

Whatever the case, it’s about your Internet connection. If it’s too slow or unreliable, Quibi steaming will not be able to cope with it. So, your Quibi videos will continue disconnecting.

Faster Internet is not always available from your ISP. You may already have the best plan or it would make no sense to spend more. So what can you do then?

Introducing Speedify – the app that will help you get faster, more reliable Internet right on your iPhone or Android smartphone. Speedify is a fast bonding VPN that uses channel bonding technology to combine Wi-Fi and cellular together simultaneously on your smartphone. This way, you will get the combined speed of both Wi-Fi and mobile data, as well as failover protection, should Wi-Fi turn bad.

Plus – Speedify has a dedicated Streaming Mode, which prioritizes video streams over other apps. You will get quality of service for your streaming videos. No more stuttering, buffering or disconnecting videos on Quibi and any other streaming platform for that matter.

The best part about Speedify is that it requires no dedicated hardware to provide you with that extra bandwidth and stability. You just have it installed on your smartphone and can use it while at home, traveling, commuting, on holiday. And because it also encrypts all traffic between your device and Quibi servers, your privacy will be protected on public Wi-Fi networks. Anywhere that is, whether on trains, buses, airports, local cafes, etc.

So, remember – if you want to enjoy disconnecting-free Quibi streaming, get Speedify and enable Streaming Mode.
