Mobile and Desktop Tests
You can choose the type of device on which you want to monitor your website’s performance using Google Lighthouse. This allows you to test on both Desktop and Mobile.
Device Throttling
Device throttling involves simulating various network conditions and device capabilities to mimic real-world user experiences. This includes settings for network speed (e.g. 3G and 4G,), CPU slowdown, and more. Configuring device throttling helps you understand how your website performs under different conditions, such as slow network connections or less powerful devices.
