We noticed that page load time of our e-commerce web application on Android mobile devices is more compared to mobile iOS. However, on mobile Android devices, the page load time has improved over the time with the newer Operating System(OS) versions but still, it is almost double that of mobile iOS.
To analyze this we checked the request details(Webpagetest) of Android & iOS mobile devices and noticed that certain requests to our internal assets like js/CSS(CDN) are not seen for mobile iOS Webpagetest but are found for mobile Android Webpagetest. Also, we found some additional requests of images(internal assets - CDN) in mobile Android Webpagetest as compared to mobile iOS.
Can anybody let me know if the mobile page load time is related to OS or browser rendering the resources in an optimized way? If not, then could you please let me know if we could do something at our end to optimize and improve the page load time for mobile Android devices?
Any pointers provided would be helpful.
Note: The issue of page load time being more is noticed only on mobile devices whereas on desktop it looks fine w.r.t. OS/browser.
Regards,
