We go down to the bottom of the page and find the line “Turbo”. Set the switch to the “Always On” position. We also make sure that the checkbox next to the “Compress video” item is checked.

By default, the switch is set to “Automatically turn on when the connection is slow,” but I don’t really like how this function works, because if I need to save traffic and the Internet is fast, then Turbo mode will not turn on.

“Turbo” mode is a useful feature of the Yandex, Opera, Chrome browsers, which allows you to speed up the loading of website pages with a slow Internet connection. Let's take a closer look at how the "Turbo" mode works in different browsers, in what cases it will really help, and what else the option does, besides increasing the speed of loading sites.

Why do you need the Turbo mode?

The developers of the Opera browser came up with Turbo mode in 2009. At that time, the Internet was still slow for many (telephone modems) and the tariffs required payment for each megabyte of received or sent information, and the mode allowed for real savings. Now most people have unlimited access to the network, but speeding up downloads is still important on mobile connections and WiFi in public places.

The principle of operation of the “Turbo” mode in Opera and “Yandex Browser” is the same. With the option disabled, the user downloads the site directly to his computer, and with the “Turbo” mode activated, the data is first downloaded to the Opera Software server and from there the page opens in a browser tab. On the Opera Software server, multimedia - pictures, videos, animations - are compressed and, with a slow connection, sites launch on the user's computer faster - the amount of information downloaded is smaller. The quality of videos and other things noticeably deteriorates, but you can watch a video, animation or picture even on a slow (2G) mobile Internet.

Due to the fact that the Internet browser does not connect directly to the site, but through Opera Software servers, in “Turbo” mode you can visit sites blocked by Roskomnadzor or your Internet provider. Access to prohibited resources is blocked at the provider level - Internet providers do not allow their subscribers to access pages with certain addresses. In “Turbo” mode, the connection goes directly to the Opera or Google servers if you use Chrome, so the provider does not record access to prohibited sites and cannot block them.

When you go with your browser's turbo mode turned on to a site that determines your IP address, your location or provider, for example, to our home page, you will see that the data is determined incorrectly. To be more precise, our service determines the IP address of the server that ensures the operation of the turbo mode and, based on it, determines the provider and your location.

"Turbo" in Chrome: traffic saving plugin

Chrome does not have a built-in “Turbo” mode, and before enabling accelerated loading of sites, you will have to download and install the official add-on from Google’s virtual storefront.

• Go to Chrome Webstore;
• Enter “Traffic saving” into the search;
• Find the extension of the same name from the Google developer;
• Add an extension to the browser;
• Close and launch the browser again.

The extension icon will appear in the upper right corner of the window. To activate the economy mode (“Turbo”), you need to click on the icon and check the only item “Traffic saving”. For compression, this mode works great - on some sites it “cuts off” up to 70% of unnecessary multimedia - advertising banners, animation, etc. - but it is not very suitable as a means of accessing blocked sites. We immediately located the device under test and did not find Turbo mode enabled in Chrome.

Opera Turbo to speed up your browsing experience

Opera Turbo worked and works for users of the original “opera” product and under a server rental agreement for users of Yandex Browser.

To activate the “Turbo” mode in the browser, open the menu (upper left corner) and check the “Opera Turbo” box.

In terms of traffic filtering and compression, the pioneer shows better results than Google's product. The servers compress pictures, scripts, and even videos, although on the feature presentation page the developer still recommends setting the minimum online video quality for slow connections. It will be possible to access sites prohibited in Russia, although the vaunted Opera Turbo did not hide the tested computer from our watchful eye, and the enabled page loading acceleration mode was not detected.

"Turbo" mode in the Yandex browser

In Yandex Browser, the Turbo mode is organized using technology similar to the above-mentioned solutions. For compression, the same servers are used as in Opera. The "Turbo" mode in Yandex Browser is activated automatically by default - compression occurs only on a slow connection.

In the settings you can enable “Turbo” for all sites. Clicking on the rocket icon in the address bar allows you to activate it for an individual page (if it is always turned off) or allow the site to load in a tab without acceleration (if it is always turned on).

If necessary, individual blocked elements are activated by clicking - click “Unblock content” and watch the compressed video online through a narrow channel at a per-megabyte rate. In the drop-down menu, which can be opened by clicking on the rocket in the address bar, there is an “Unlock All” option, which activates all blocked items.

In terms of page loading speed via the mobile Internet (Huawei 3G modem, LifeCell mobile operator, coverage is terrible), Yandex Browser has outperformed its competitors. With interactive elements disabled, pages of social networks, portals, and services loaded almost instantly.

In the “Turbo” mode, it was possible to bypass the blocking of individual blocked sites, but you can’t fool us. The service calculated the location of the computer the first time, but did not notice the “Turbo” mode.

In terms of loading speed of sites in “Turbo” mode on a slow Internet, “Yandex Browser” surpassed everyone, Opera showed its class in providing access to blocked sites, although the site did not see Opera Turbo, and Chrome with its “Traffic Saving” add-on did a good job of reducing the weight of downloaded pages. Other closest competitors - Firefox and Vivaldi - did not have anything similar, except for third-party applications. Does the enhanced “anti-spyware” “Tracking Protection” in Firefox work according to a similar scheme, but only in “Incognito” mode, so it’s too early to call it a full-fledged analogue.

The “Turbo” mode is a necessary thing, only each browser works differently and you need to choose a browser according to your needs: speed up (Yandex), save (Google Chrome) or access blocked sites (Opera).

Many well-known web browsers, for example, Yandex.Browser, have a special “Turbo” mode, which can significantly increase page loading speed due to traffic compression. Unfortunately, because of this, the quality of the content noticeably suffers, which is why users need to disable this mode.

Yandex.Browser provides two options for configuring the accelerator operation - in one, control is performed manually, and in the second, this function is insisted on automatic operation when the Internet speed drops.

Method 1: Disabling "Turbo" through the browser menu

As a rule, such a step is enough in most cases to deactivate the site loading acceleration mode in Yandex Browser. The exception is the case when you configured the automatic operation of this function in the web browser settings.

1. Click on the browser menu button in the upper right corner.
2. A list of items will appear on the screen, in which you will find the item "Turn off turbo". Accordingly, by selecting this item, the option will be terminated. If you see the item "Turn on turbo"– your accelerator is inactive, which means you don’t need to press anything.

Method 2: Disable "Turbo" through web browser options

There is a function in the settings of your web browser that allows you to automatically turn on the accelerator when there is a noticeable decrease in Internet speed. If you had this setting active, then it should be deactivated, otherwise the option will turn on and off spontaneously.

In addition, in the same menu you can configure the constant operation of the site loading acceleration function. If you have the appropriate setting, then you won’t be able to disable the page loading acceleration mode using the first method.

Are you experiencing a slow internet connection and your browser is having trouble loading web pages? Not a problem if you use a browser from Yandex! It has a special function that allows you to speed up the launch of Internet pages. It's called "Turbo Mode" and is available to all users. Next, we will detail how to enable turbo mode in the Yandex browser.

How does a turbo work?

The main idea of ​​turbo mode is to automatically speed up the loading of web pages on a slow Internet connection. Thus, if you enable the automatic launch of turbo mode, then when the Internet speed decreases, page loading will be accelerated using this function. For example, you are launching a significant page, but there is not enough internet at all. At this time, turbo mode will try to speed up the loading of the web page, even taking into account the fact that there is practically no Internet.

How to enable turbo on a computer

So, you can activate turbo mode on your computer in several ways. The first is when the turbo turns on automatically, and the second is when the mode operates on a permanent basis. Both functions can be configured in the browser settings. Let's look further at an example.

Activate turbo permanently

Turbo mode on an ongoing basis will be useful for users who constantly use low-speed Internet. This way, you can maintain a good connection at any time of the day. To take advantage of all this, use the following instructions:

After following the instructions, your Yandex browser will be connected to turbo mode. You can disable it if necessary in the same menu.

Automatic switching on

In order to activate the automatic inclusion of turbo mode, you need to return to the menu that we opened in the previous section. After that, set the item to the “Automatically turn on when connection is slow” mode.

This method is well suited if you often move with your laptop and connect exclusively to a wireless network, which does not always work reliably.
