    Hey! Gooddealz​ 

    I see you're having trouble with the DTV app. Here are a few steps you can try:

    • Press the Home button on your Roku remote.
    • Use the arrow buttons to highlight the app that’s not working.
    • Press the Star (✱) button to open the options menu.
    • Select Check for Updates.
    • After the update finishes, try opening the app again.


    Check out this link for more tips.

    Let us know if that works!

        Hey, Gooddealz​ 

        Thanks for the additional information and for the troubleshooting steps you have tried. We understand you are having issues with the DirecTV app. Can you share more info? 

        • Can you still watch anything on the app, or is it completely refusing to play content now?
        • Does the issue start right away, or does it work briefly before failing?
        • Does this issue happen only on the DirecTV app? 
        • If possible, a video of the issue would be great. 


        Let us know when you can!
