Safari speed test with iCloud Private Relay
If every speed test in Safari tops out around 200–300 Mbps while your phone or Chrome gets far more, iCloud Private Relay is routing your traffic through Apple's relay. This test detects it automatically.

Questions about this test
What is iCloud Private Relay?
A privacy feature in iCloud+ that sends Safari traffic through two relays (Apple's and a partner's such as Cloudflare) so no one party sees both who you are and what you visit. It applies to Safari and some system traffic on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Why does it make speed tests slow?
Relay servers add distance and have their own capacity limits, so throughput is commonly capped in the low hundreds of Mbps and ping rises by 20–50 ms. Every speed test in Safari is affected the same way.
How do I measure my real speed?
Turn it off temporarily: System Settings (or Settings on iPhone) → your name → iCloud → Private Relay → off. Or run the test in Chrome, Firefox or Edge, which don't use it. Turn it back on afterwards if you value the privacy.
