On my Tivo Roamio 4 tuner device Tubitv recordings frequently get to an ad break and stop before the ad plays with the message "Player stuck due to low buffer" and error code TI-3-201. A small minority of the recordings play fine but some will die on each and every ad break. I never see any actual ads. Sometimes I can force it past the break and resume play although it can take several iterations before it continues on. Tubi support was not helpful.

Tubi worked fine on my Kindle tablet for a couple of years, until a few days ago when it started crashing, won't even open a movie, just by blinks out. Tried uninstall/reinstalled Tubi, but it still crashes right away. Can you help?

By Melanie   8 months ago


Commercials freeze. Then the movie starts back at the beginning and I have to fast forward to where I was watching. Multiple titles doing this. Frustrating.

By Sharan Mellor   8 months ago


I answered your questions that you were asking about updating.When I attempt to go on Tubi I cannot connect. Just keep getting questionnaire. Very upset. I have been a member pretty well from the beginning. I am getting email from you about my saved movies that I should be watching. What is going on. I will miss you. Please contact me. Too late for a chat.

Long time user. Got message to update app upon signing in. Did so. Now Tubi is in a loop of "need to update" message. App itself no longer opens. Cleared cache, checked all logical issues including restarting tablet. How do I fix bad app update?

Tubi not loading ads properly. Ad breaks takes forever. Aside from me being unhappy, what about your advertisers? I Uninstaller, and reinstalled, and restarted the Roku. Fix this!

By Catherine   9 months ago


Commercials are slow loading, partially loading, or not loading at all. I have uninstall and reinstall the app, restarted the Roku, nothing. it's really annoying for me; how about your advertisers who pay to have their ads placed?

When you try to select a movie or subject it skips around. Ex: At the top when you try to select movies from the left. It will skip all the way to the right bypassing movies.

Error message 04035 "Come back and try again later" ... 6 days later still same message. I notice lots here had that same problem. My internet provider helped me solve it. I use a flex box and Samsung qled tv. Go to TV settings...then "Privacy"...then scroll down to Locally Stored Data and hit "OK". Voila... Tubi my favorite TV app started working again.

By Rico   1 year ago


Tubi has always worked fine thru my xfinity streaming box. It really has all the great movies and tv shows. It’s the best app one the net. It hasn’t been working since the 14th of March 2023 for me. I’ve reset the box and everything. I’ve opened other apps and they all work. Only Tubi has a problem launching. Click on it and it just says it’s unavailable right now and to check back later. This sucks for me on the count that’s the only app I like. All the other apps, even the one I pay for aren’t as good. So I have nothing to watch and I’m complaining about it here. But I’m glad I checked here cause that means I’m not the only one who has this problem.

Not every time, but after a commercial I get kicked out of tubi. I have to get back in and find the show I was watching.

I have been waiting for several days for the issue to clear up on it's own, but apparently it's not going to happen so I'm reporting it. I get a message that says "Looks like Tubi isnt available right now." Along with an error code: Apps 04035

Using same version of mod, literally, file share from device that has my fav best working version. Several other devices using same shared version...BUT, on mi box s does odd things no matter troubleshooting, tips, tricks, uninstalilng then sideloading diff apk, even tried official app, etc. Neat-o brain melting tricks it comes up with like, google log in failure, email/password not recognized or incorrect, if allowed to log in no watchlist, notifications, all movies and shows blocked except religious and young kid fluff and fodder, or everyones fav DRM cock block pop up box... I adore Tubi for free eternal infinite continous autoplay and some of the most off the wall bizarre B movies EVER

All other apps stream without any glitches ..Prime, Vudo, Pluto, Youtube et al. Tubi, however, will NOT play content.

IF YOU CANT FIX YOUR PROBLEMS...JUST TAKE IT DOWN..STOP MESSING WITH US....

By McGee   1 year ago


I have watched tubi for several years and in the last two or three months it stopped working. Of all the comments I have read here, I have not seen ANY answers provided by tubi. Is there anyone at tubi that actually tries to fix problems reported here OR, more likely no one at tubi cares their app isn’t working. And, possibly this site is an intentional dead end set up by tubi to dispose of the “ junk “ they don’t want to deal with. I tried all of the “fixes” listed with zero positive results.

By Lucas Micromatis   1 year ago


Tubi crashes 2 or 3 times during the same program either during or right after ad breaks. Using Amazon fire stick. Have uninstalled and reinstall the app. Makes no difference. After one reply from support asking for additional information, they went radio silent. This was weeks ago. Guess they don’t care much since it’s free 🤷🏻

I'm unable to watch anything on TUBI because as soon as an ad comes on, the screen freezes and remains frozen. I see by the complaints of others that this problem has been happening since March of this year! Don't you think it's about time you paid attention and fixed this crap??? I'm about to say to hell with Tubi!

Can't download Tubi app

By Ann Sween   1 year ago


I love watching TUBI! I load it on my Chromebook, and enjoy. THEN I cast to Chromecast in the TV room, casting from the laptop to TV screen. This has been a tremendous technological treat for me, living alone, I can choose so many shows depending on my mood. The ads are FUN! I don't mind watching them and there is a counter in the corner that shows a countdown, PROBLEM TODAY: After ads, the streaming feature does not continue, the interuption seems to force the app on my chromebook to reboot to the beginning of the show. I then have to reboot TUBI, restart selection, and cast again. My guess is that the ads containing political content are being counted, since this is an election month, and the system is trying to spend as much money to elect their chosen candidate. I can't wait to get back to those COOL ads, like for TUBI, and DOOR DASH, and maybe some Christmas Gift ideas that aren't sold on Amazon. Are you reading this? Hello. Yes, people watch, and listen, and wish for robots that actually perform meaningful work - like laundry and dishes. I gotta go, have a great life, go out and rake leaves if you get the chance. Bike, hike, and be kind....

I get tons more movies on my kindle tubi app than on my tv. Also, I can't get out of the app on my tv without turning the tv off and then on.

By Barry Warner   1 year ago


Tubi has worked great for the last 12 months on my smart tv. However, for the last 10 days, every time I try to watch a movie trailer it freezes halfway thru the trailer and says to reboot the cable box… to no effect and returns to regular tv channels. Only movie trailers. No problem watching entire movies.

By Jet 1   1 year ago


Tubi is VERY UNRELIABLE and it typically freezes 2 to 3 times when watching a single movie. Yes i am logged in. The only reliable fix i have found is to shut down and restart my TV, but this is only partially successful as if you return to tubi it is still frozen, so you watch someting else till it clears up. The program selection is good but the reliability makes it VERY frustrating to use.

By Mark   1 year ago


When watching a movie the app closes and returns me to my TV home page. The duration it plays is variable but I can expect at least 3 failures in an hour and a half movie.

By John B   1 year ago


Just purchased a 2022 LG SmartTV, Tubi was installed and activated, try to navigate the various movie venues I click on a show and then try to move up or down to see other options nothing responds then after several minute the tv shuts off or just sits there with not response for ever until you close out and go to Britbox or Prime etc all works fine just not Tubi Tubi reponds with absurd answer, shut tv off start again, check connection, reinstall app, did those still does not resolve the issue Does Tubi Support do anything NO they just ignore the complaint, this happens on three separate TV's so it is not the device it is TUBI APP not doing it job 08-31-2022
