"I get it", "I got it", "I understood" is there a real difference between these ways of speaking?
What's the difference between them? In what cases should we use one or another of them in speech and writing?

"I get it" is in the present tense, so it is used for the current situation. The other two are past tense, so can be used with past events.
Example: Yesterday I learned how to stir fry. I got it right away. Today I am learning how to bake. I don't get it.

'I understood it' (or 'I've understood it') is formal
'I got it' (or 'I've got it) is informal

No: not when the context of the discussion is about understanding or agreeing. There is no difference. Do not confuse "got it" get it" with actually collecting something. That is a different meaning of "get/got"
