When you click your screen as the video is playing, some icons will appear on the screen.
Among these will be three small dots stacked on each other.
They should be the second from the top right side.
This is the setting icon, and it is usually next to the I or info icon.
opt for setting icon and a drop-down or options menu should appear.
Among them will be an option called quality select it.
This will display options like 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p and 144p.
Select 1080p for the highest quality and 144p for the lowest.
Unless you change it, whatever your internet speed is, your video will retain that quality.
Or maybe you have low-quality internet speed but your videos always display in high quality.
This will cause the video to lag or be very slow.
Then there is a chance that your play HD over WIFI option is turned off.

If you select always play HD all videos will be played with very high quality.
press save and this will affect all videos you will subsequently view.
