You can watch it on the official app which you can get from the Google Play and Apple App stores. It’s on Xbox, Roku, and Sling. You can watch Shudder on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. This guide will tell you which of these browsers is the best for Shudder.

What are the best browsers for Shudder?

Chrome – Extensions enhanced viewing experience

Kicking things off, we have Google Chrome. This browser is arguably the best one on this list thanks to its robust video playback features. The browser has features that allow you to control video in a different tab. There is indeed an Opera extension that allows you to install Chrome add-ons, but that has since become obsolete due to the browser’s new native support. So you can enjoy the likes of Scener, Picture-Picture, and more. Besides the extensions, what makes Opera better than Chrome is how much of a computer’s resources it takes comparatively. In truth, the amount really isn’t that great, just a few megabytes, but that difference is notable. Additional features

The browser comes with a free VPN There is a gaming version called Opera GX that has features centered on video games It sports an in-app ad blocker

You can also control whether the movie on Shudder will autoplay, plus it supports Chromecast. You can connect your Chromecast to your Shudder account and then onto your TV.

Firefox – Best security features out of the three

The final entry on this list is Mozilla Firefox. Like Chrome, this browser has its unique extension that enhances the viewing experience. And similarly, you can host watch parties via the aptly named Watch Party plug-in. There’s also Jelly Party which some people prefer since it has an in-app chat room and the ability to send emojis on there. It’s definitely one of the more interactive extensions out there. But where Firefox shines best is in its security measures. The browser has a password manager and tracking protection to stop third-party cookies from following you. This is great to keep your data private. Additional features

Why is Shudder so laggy?

According to Shudder’s own support page, a laggy video could be due to low internet speeds or too many windows taking up computer resources. They first recommend running a speed test to see if your connection meets the 20Mbps requirement. They also recommend that you close any and all unnecessary windows and apps. These things can cause a slow internet connection. We also recommend clearing out the browser cache. Let us know your choice in the comments area below.
