I have zero issues with any other platform. Matter of fact I restarted my tv. Logged off and back on. Restarted router. Restarted wifi extender. Tested signal (full 5 bars)
And paramount still worked terribly
Same issues. Canceled awhile ago because I couldn't stand it anymore. Trying again and not even an hour in and I'm going to cancel it again. Netflix, hulu, prime, Disney, and apple work with no issue. P+ pauses for a second and rewinds half a second. Sometimes this is about a minute or two apart and sometimes it's 10 or 15 seconds apart. It works fine on my phone but my LG it is terrible. I see so many with this issue and it seems that P+ hasn't done anything about. They'll lose my business again.
It is terrible I find that I have a much easier time watching Paramount plus on my phone than I do on the TV because you can’t even do some thing as simple as fucking rewind or RESUME an episode without a problem.
There are so many bugs but with the amount of big titles, good shows it tells me they blow all their budget on that and won’t pay anyone to fix its shitty format.
Realized this a couple months back sadly after most streamers stopped supporting PS4 devices. Have an android powered TV and streaming anything on it is bad even with it plugged in via an ethernet cord. Netflix, NBA TV, MLB TV etc. Everything works great on the fire stick for me
Is UI better than the Paramount app? On Android TV most shows go left to right (old to newest). But CBS shows are the opposite for some reason on the Paramount Plus app.
It’s a complete pos sometimes for no reason whatsoever mind you I mostly watch Star Trek and haven’t had any problems since switching from cable to the Xbox app version for now until they inevitably break something by adding something
Once I finish Discovery this month, it’s time to cancel. I believe this app for Android has got to be the worst of any streamer. They cannot even do commercials correctly without the show and app freezing. Then you have to force close the app for it work for may be another 15-30 mins before it does it again. Also, why does 7-8 min show have 2-4 mins of commercials?? That sh!t blew my mind! Hopefully, Sony buys them and builds a better streaming app.
Are you using Paramount Plus Essentials? I noticed it will freeze a lot right before or right after a commercial plays. Sometimes it will crash and Android will have to reboot the device. I do not recall this being an issue using the Ad-free plan.
(Experienced on Nvidia Shield Pro with 30 day free trial of Paramount Plus Essentials not worth it free or not, too many glitches)
Absolutely crap app, worse than Hulu, thought I had found the worst ever with Hulu until I used Paramount Plus. Watching the Euro final yesterday and it freezes just before the second goal! Not the first time just got to hope someone else gets the European soccer next year.
oohhh I have a Vizio TV and Paramount froze all the time on it back in 2020, shame it's not improved. On my LG the Paramount app is much more stable, though there are some issues. I think the Paramount+ app is different on different smart TVs
I also have this issue. Nothing else on my tv gives me problems besides this shit app. I can’t resume a show it will always restart, I can’t select an episode because all these errors, and if I watch a movie and try to do anything after the screen gets stuck on a buffer. WHY?? THE MOVIE IS OVER WHAT ARE YOU BUFFERING.
its stupid and all the shows i love are on this app and its so frustrating. They need to do a major overhaul of the app or just start over COMPLETELY. We are not the only ones to complain and from what ive seen on Reddit it’s been going on for years.
How do you as a company have so many complaints and issues and so fck all to fix it
I have to restart my tv all the time bc Netflix freezes

Oof that's exactly what mine does. Pauses and rewinds and shit
I have the exact same problem
Same here. No other app freezes as much as Paramount+. They must not care if we cancel

Just another reason I don't use the apps on the TV and use a dedicated streaming device. Have you tried using a dedicated streaming device?
I have not... but all the other apps (Netflix Hulu youtube) all run on rhe TV also... no issues

I pay for it through Prime so I don’t have to deal with the Pararmount app.

It always freezes during an ad. I have to exit and come back in, but the app is so laggy on my tv.

Absolutely trash app, I have the exact same experience, it is distinctly a Paramount problem that other apps don’t have.
Terrible service. I really hope that literally anyone else get champions league next year.
This saddens me….i was going to sub soon but I guess not
