- Test with and without it and choose a fast server near you.
How to test it yourself
- Request a free trial.
- Install a player on your usual device.
- Test a live sports channel, a movie and the guide.
- Check how it behaves at the busiest time of day.
Before you commit
You can ask for a short free trial on WhatsApp, which lets you test channel quality on your own device and internet connection before paying for a plan.
