I was watching the LSU game on my patio tv yesterday and it froze up. When I got it restarted, the espn app kept telling me to log into my cable provider, which is cox. When I try to log in though the app, the Cox log in page won’t load. I’ve tried deleting the app, restoring the fire stick to factory settings, clearing the data and cache but nothing seems to be working. It’s also doing it on my TV in the bed room, but so far the Tv in the living room is still logged on any working. Anyone have any tips?

The ESPN app is in contention for the worst tv app ever

It’s fricking awful

I've had a similar problem with ESPN but on Roku for a few weeks now.

I'm logged in but no matter what I try to watch, it says I'm not authorized to view the content. I tried my in-laws' credentials and same thing. If I use my Apple TV though, everything works fine.

Very frustrating.

I was commenting earlier about how much the app had improved in the last couple of years, then it seems the app had no idea a double header was taking place and would not let me find or play the second of the two games.

Big time... espcailly since the one in the house seems to be working fine. I don't know if it's an app issue or a Cox issue or both

Next to impossible to fix. We dropped Cox recently and now have Youtube TV. After many many resets/restarts my wife got it to work on one of our TV's but threw up her hands and gave up on the others. Ridiculous.

I can't log in to espn app with YouTube tv provider on the firestick. Cycles back to the provider log in. Frustrating...I can log in to espn app when I use the smart TV installed app but the sound cuts out for a few seconds every 5 minutes or so. Equally frustrating.
