Notion Running Slow? Performance Fixes (2026)

Quick Fix: Most issues are solved by clearing cache, checking your subscription, or reconnecting your account. Try these fixes in order.

Fix #1: Notion loading slowly

Large databases slow Notion down. Use filtered views instead of showing all entries. Archive old pages.

Fix #2: Mobile app performance

The mobile app is slower than desktop. Use lightweight pages on mobile. Avoid embedded databases on mobile.

Fix #3: Sync issues

Check your internet connection. Notion syncs in real-time. Clear the desktop app cache.

Fix #4: Search not finding pages

Notion search can be slow on large workspaces. Use the Search sidebar filter. Try exact phrases in quotes.

Fix #5: Database formulas slow

Complex formulas on large databases impact performance. Simplify formulas or split into separate properties.

Fix #6: Offline mode not working

Offline mode is limited. Recently viewed pages are cached. Download important pages as PDF for offline access.
