The so-called Turbo mode is implemented in Yandex Browser. It helps not only save traffic, but also speed up page loading. This is possible due to the fact that the content of the website page is compressed on Yandex servers and only then is transmitted to the browser to the user. Some page elements do not load at all. This is a very convenient mode if, for example, you have a low internet connection speed.
By default, Turbo mode is turned on if the download speed drops below 128 Kbps, however, you can always turn on this mode for permanent operation.
Browser for computer
Start Yandex Browser. At the top of the window, click on the icon consisting of three stripes. After the menu appears, select the "Settings" section in it.
The settings page will open. Find the subsection "Turbo" on it and put a tick next to the item "Always on". I also recommend that you check the box next to the "Compress video" item.
Now you will always see the rocket-shaped icon in the browser bar - this means that Turbo mode is running.
Mobile Browser
If you use Yandex Browser on your phone or tablet, you can also use Turbo mode, which is especially important, since the mobile Internet in many cities does not differ in its stable speed.
Launch your browser. At the top right of the screen, there is a button in the form of three dots. Tap on it and a menu will appear. Select "Settings" from the menu.
On the settings page, select the subsection "Turbo Mode" and click on it.
Check the box next to Enabled and also next to Compress Video.
You don't need to do anything else. Open any site and see a rocket that confirms that Turbo mode is on.
Facing a slow internet connection and your browser can't handle loading web pages? Not a problem if you are using Yandex browser! It provides a special function that allows you to speed up the launch of Internet pages. It is called "Turbo Mode" and is available to all users. Next, we will detail how to enable turbo mode in the Yandex browser.
How does turbo work
The main idea behind turbo mode is to automatically speed up the loading of web pages on slow internet connections. Thus, if you enable the automatic start of the turbo mode, then when the Internet speed decreases, page loading will be accelerated using this function. For example, you launch a weighty page, and the Internet is not enough. 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 turn on turbo on a computer
So, there are several ways to activate turbo mode on a computer. The first is when the turbo turns on automatically, and the second is when the mode is running on an ongoing basis. Both functions are configured in the browser settings. Consider further with an example.
Activate turbo permanently
Turbo mode on an ongoing basis will be useful for users who constantly use low-speed Internet. Thus, a good connection can be maintained at any time of the day. To take advantage of all this, we use the following instruction:
After following the instructions, your Yandex browser will be connected to turbo mode. You can disable it if necessary in the same menu.
Auto turn on
In order to activate the automatic activation of the 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 on slow connection" mode. 
This method works well if you often move with your laptop and connect exclusively to a wireless network that does not always work stably.

Turbo mode is a useful function of Yandex, Opera, Chrome browsers, which allows you to speed up the loading of site pages with a slow Internet connection. Let's take a closer look at how the "Turbo" mode works in different browsers, in which cases it really helps and what else the option gives, in addition to increasing the speed of loading sites.
What is the "Turbo" mode for?
The Turbo mode was invented by the developers of the Opera browser in 2009. Then the Internet was still slow for many (telephone modems) and tariffs assumed payment for each megabyte of received or sent information, and the mode allowed you to really save. Now the majority have unlimited access to the network, but speeding up downloads is also important on mobile connections, WiFi in public places.
The principle of operation of the "Turbo" mode for Opera and "Yandex Browser" is the same. With the option disabled, the user downloads the site directly to his computer, and when the Turbo mode is 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 - is compressed and, with a slow connection, sites start faster on the user's computer - less information is downloaded. The quality of video and other things is noticeably deteriorating, but you can watch a video, animation or picture even on a slow (2G) mobile Internet.
Due to the fact that the Internet browser is not connected directly to the site, but through the Opera Software servers, in the "Turbo" mode, you can visit the 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 visit pages with certain addresses. In the "Turbo" mode, the connection goes directly to the servers of Opera or Google, if you use Chrome, therefore the provider does not record access to prohibited sites and cannot block them.
When you go with the turbo browser 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 incorrect. 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 you enable accelerated loading of sites, you will have to download and install the official add-on from the Google virtual storefront.
- Go to the Chrome Webstore;
- Search for "Saving traffic";
- Find the extension of the same name from the developer Google;
- Add the extension to the browser;
- Close and restart your browser.
The extension icon will be displayed in the upper right corner of the window. To activate the economy mode ("Turbo"), you need to click on the icon and put a tick on the only item "Saving traffic". For compression, this mode works perfectly - on some sites it "cuts" up to 70% of excess multimedia - advertising banners, animations, 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 the Turbo mode enabled in Chrome.
Opera Turbo to speed up your network
Opera Turbo has worked and is working for users of the original "opera" product and under a server lease agreement for Yandex Browser users.
To activate the "Turbo" mode in the browser, open the menu (upper left corner) and check the box "Opera Turbo".
In terms of traffic filtering and compression, the first mover performs better than the Google product. The servers compress pictures, scripts, and even video, although the developer still recommends setting the minimum online video quality on the function presentation page on a slow connection. You will be able to access sites banned in Russia, although the vaunted Opera Turbo did not hide the computer under test from our watchful eye, the page loading acceleration mode was not detected.
Turbo mode in Yandex browser
In Yandex Browser, the Turbo mode is organized using a technology similar to the above solutions. Compression uses the same servers as Opera. The "Turbo" mode in the "Yandex Browser" is activated in automatic mode 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 a specific page (if it's always off) or allow the site to load in a tab without speeding up (if it's always 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 item "Unblock all", which activates all locked elements.
In the speed of loading pages via mobile Internet (3G modem Huawei, mobile operator LifeCell, coverage is terrible), Yandex Browser has outperformed its competitors. With disabled interactive elements, pages of social networks, portals, services were loaded almost instantly.
In the "Turbo" mode, it was possible to bypass the blocking of certain 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.
Yandex Browser outperformed everyone in terms of site loading speed in Turbo mode on a slow Internet, Opera showed a class in providing access to blocked sites, although the site did not see Opera Turbo, and Chrome with its Traffic Saving add-on reduced the weight of downloaded files quite well. pages. Other closest competitors - Firefox and Vivaldi - had nothing like that, except for third-party applications. Does the enhanced "antispyware" "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 for each browser the option works in its own way and you need to choose a browser according to your needs: speed up (Yandex), save (Google Chrome) or go to blocked sites (Opera).

What is the Turbo Opera mode and what advantages does it give?
Opera Turbo Mode Is a built-in free feature pre-installed in your browser that can significantly reduce the amount of data downloaded when you visit websites.
When visiting a web resource, all data passes through a special server that optimizes the content: compresses images (pictures and photos at the same time visually do not lose quality), corrects the buffering of video content. It is essentially a proxy server.
In practice, the user receives the following benefits:
- Reducing traffic consumption. This is very useful for those with limited traffic. Especially for users of mobile devices (phones, tablets) with the Internet from mobile operators.
- Increase the speed of loading sites. Very useful if you have to use a slow Internet connection, for example, when working with public Wi-Fi networks.
- The ability to access sites blocked by Roskomnadzor (not always and not at all. Sometimes Opera turbo does not work - it does not bypass the blocking. Therefore, it is better to use a VPN for these purposes).
Turbo mode is available both to users of desktop computers with Windows OS and to those who use mobile devices with Opera for Android and Opera Mini installed on them (you can download the Russian versions from the links).

Turbo is useful on low speed connections. Thanks to him, the page loading speed increases significantly.
To save traffic and increase download speed in browsers, there is a Turbo mode
This plugin appeared in 2009 thanks to the creators of the Opera browser. Many users in those years went to the World Wide Web through telephone modems; Turbo mode allowed not only to speed up the process of obtaining information, but also to save money, since the tariffs provided for payment for each received / sent megabyte. Today, in the era of unlimited access, download acceleration is still relevant for mobile connections, also in public places for Wi-Fi.
Principle of operation
This feature works in a similar way across browsers. With a normal user uploading information, it comes from the site directly to the computer. When Turbo is activated, the pages are initially uploaded to the browser developer's server, for example, Opera Software, where multimedia is compressed, then everything opens to the user in the browser tab. This facilitates faster loading. Of course, the quality of pictures and video is deteriorating, but the volume is smaller, and it is possible to view the material on mobile devices with a slow connection, for example 2G.
Also, due to the connection to sites indirectly through the Software server, it becomes possible to view the resources of the global network blocked by Roskomnadzor. Usually, access is blocked precisely at the level of the Internet provider, which does not allow subscribers to view certain sites. In this case, with the entrance through Opera Software, the connection is made through the server of the browser developer, which means that the entrance to the pages prohibited by the provider is not recorded, respectively, it is not blocked.
Please also note that on websites that determine, when the function is enabled, the data will be displayed incorrectly, since the service will determine the address not yours, but the server providing the Turbo function.
Let's take a look at how to enable Turbo mode in Opera and other browsers.
"Turbo" on Opera
Enter Opera in the browser menu (top panel, left). In the list that opens, find "Opera Turbo", put a tick there.
The second way to enable is to click on the icon depicting a speedometer at the bottom left of the window, then click on "Enable Opera Turbo".
The mode produces excellent compression, excellent traffic filtering, facilitates unhindered access to sites prohibited for Russia.
How to disable Turbo mode in Opera if you want to watch videos, pictures in good quality? To turn off media compression, click on the picture, select "Reload image in original quality" from the menu that appears.
Turbo activation on Yandex
Consider the Turbo mode in Yandex, how to enable it for permanent work or for certain resources of the global network.
Yandex Browser loads pages most quickly, even with the slowest connection, compared to other browsers.
The mode works similarly to "Opera Turbo", it is activated automatically during a slow connection. Compression uses the same servers. It is possible to configure the plugin to work permanently.
In the settings, it is possible to put the plugin on for all visited pages. If you need it only for certain sites, to activate Turbo on a specific page, click on the rocket in the address bar. Or you can go to Settings and select the parameters you need there. Helps to bypass browsing bans.
Connecting in Chrome
Google Chrome does not contain a built-in "Turbo" mode, for faster page loading, you should download, then install the official add-on "Saving traffic". Turbo mode turns on in Google Chrome like this:
- Go to the Webstore online store.
- In the search box, enter "Save traffic".
- Once you've found an extension from Google, add it to your browser.
- Close the browser, restart it.
- The extension icon will be displayed in the upper right corner. To activate it, you need to put a tick there in the "Save traffic" item.
The specified mode compresses up to 70% of unnecessary media. But the entrance to prohibited web resources does not open.
Summing up, we note that the download speed is higher than that of Yandex. Provides access for Russians to blocked pages in the most efficient way Opera. Google Chrome is the best at reducing the weight of loaded pages.
