1. **[Google Chrome](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/94712/why-can-t-i-update-chrome-from-my-android-phone)** should be updated.

First, make sure you're using the most recent version of **Chrome** to watch videos. **Update Chrome** browsers are compatible with the very latest web technology for multimedia content. To do so, select Help, then About **Google Chrome** from the Customize **[Google Chrome](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/94712/why-can-t-i-update-chrome-from-my-android-phone)** menu. \
After that, a new tab called About Chrome will open, which will scan for and install updates. After the browser has been updated, click **Relaunch**. \
Streaming service data usage settings should be adjusted as follows: \
1. Sign in to your **Netflix** account first. 2. Then, on the menu, select **Account**. 3. Go to **My Profile** and select **Playback Settings** from the drop-down menu. 4. Select either a **High** or **Medium data** use setting after that. 5. Click on the **Save** button. \
Users who use **[Chrome](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/94712/why-can-t-i-update-chrome-from-my-android-phone)** to watch streaming videos from Netflix or other streaming services can usually change their data consumption options. Check the data consumption settings inside your movie-streaming website account if the video quality isn't what it should be. For more basic video playback, a lower data use setting could be chosen. Users of **Netflix** can change their data use settings in this way. \
Keep in mind that the video quality of **Netflix** is also dependent on the plan chosen. The cheapest Netflix plan only allows you to watch movies in **480p**. As a result, choosing the highest data use setting for a **Basic Netflix** package is basically worthless. \
Users on the Premium plan, on the other hand, should select the High option if their laptops or desktops can play **HD** and **UHD video**. Also, the maximum streaming resolution with **Chrome** is **720p**. For better video quality, use Microsoft's default browser, Edge, which supports **4K Netflix streaming**. The **5110** bitrate level will provide video quality that is similar to that of a **1080p** resolution video.
