Pluto TV abruptly crashing

Pluto tv will launch but will close abruptly (no warning). Also will crash when attempting to sign in.

I have tried uninstalling and clearing cache.

I’m on a Sharp Roku Tv.

    After removing a channel, best practice is to restart** your Roku to clear its memory cache BEFORE reinstalling the channel. Did you do this? Without the restart you may not get a clean reinstall.

    Depending on your Roku model number you'll find the "System restart" option under either "Settings > System > Power" or under "Settings > System". If you don't have sufficient control to use the menus, or if it is just more convenient, you can also restart by pulling the power plug for a short while, then plugging it back in.

    **On a Roku TV with "Fast TV Start" enabled, turning the TV off/on only puts you in/out of a low power standby state, it does NOT give you a complete restart. Use the methods above.

  • Pluto is very frustrating. Slow and not adequately responsive . I have up using it.
