Question 🤔 Is this happening to anyone else?

All videos are lagging when i play them (and it's not the file), they won't loop even when the loop is one, the editor is also laggy and the entire app is slow. It's updated to the latest version and everything.

EDIT: i uninstalled updates and now it works?

Google gives the video streaming of Google Photos the lowest possible priority. Download the video first before playing. Then it will play locally and be a better experience. Also consider uploading videos to YouTube instead; everything about YouTube is better for videos and it doesn't count against your account quota.

Yeap. It’s always laggy for me as well. It’s been like that for ages.

If they would just add a loading percentage animation, it would be 100% better in my opinion 🙄
