Mirror is delayed

Latency is usually lower on the same WiFi and higher across different networks.

Answer

Refl transmits video directly between devices (P2P). Connecting both devices to the same WiFi increases the chance of a shorter, more direct path — which can help reduce latency. When using mobile data or different networks, traffic travels via the internet, which can result in higher latency.

What to try

1. Connect both the camera device and the TV/PC to the same WiFi network 2. Stop other bandwidth-heavy apps or video streams 3. Move closer to the WiFi router 4. Reload the page to restart the connection 5. Change video quality in Settings > Video quality to "Ultra Low Latency" or "Motion Priority"

Notes

  • Lowering video quality often reduces latency noticeably
  • Mobile data connections tend to have higher latency than WiFi
  • Too many background apps can reduce your device's processing capacity
