How To Disable Google WebLight In Chrome For Android

Google WebLight is Google’s own website compression service that is designed to work on slow networks. With Google WebLight the chrome for android is able to compress the webpages in such a way that they use 80% less internet data. Google WebLight automatically activates when a slow network is detected whether it is Wi-Fi or mobile networks. However there is still an option to load the original version of the webpage on slow networks.

Google WebLight doesn’t work on fast networks like 4G LTE. It is currently not available in USA. It only works when a slow network is detected. Somehow it works like Opera Mini, but not completely. When pages are compressed in chrome for android, they may look improper because all the information is not processed by Google WebLight and only useful information is displayed.

We can’t permanently disable weblight because it recide on Google’s servers and automatically activates when slow network is encountered. We can only revert it to view original page when the compressed page appears.
