Mobile performance score: 73
73/100Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript

Render-blocking requests
750 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 95 KiB4 images could be 95 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
sealsubscriptions.com adds 458 ms
458 mssealsubscriptions.com costs a phone 458 ms of main-thread work and 110 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 3.2 s
A phone's processor spends 3.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,886 HTML elements
The page has 2,886 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 154 ms

10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 117 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
112 KiB12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (112 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
83 KiBAbout 83 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify JavaScript
49 KiB49 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
46 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 46 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
