Roku can't help. Only the channel provider can assist when the problem is with a specific channel.

If that is the order you performed the steps, your uninstall did not succeed. You must remove, reboot, and then reinstall in that exact order.

Re: My5 crashes when play is pressed
Mine is having the exact same issue. But I don't believe its a ROKU issue. We also have a NOW device in our home and that is encountering the same issue. I have contacted MY5 who have responded and are looking into the problem

Re: My5 crashes when play is pressed
Just received the below message from my5 to say being looked into. So anyone who has this issue report to my5 using the link I provide previously. Or just await the fixed update 🙂
Hi, thanks for your message and apologies for the problems you've been experiencing.
Our Tech Team are currently looking into reports of problems of this nature on some Roku/Now devices to understand what is causing the problem and how they can get it fixed as soon as possible.
Thanks and apologies again for the problems with this.

Re: My5 crashes when play is pressed
I feel so much better having found this thread and knowing it's a widespread Roku issue. I, too, have followed all the usual steps with no success and have now reported it using the link provided. Good to hear they're looking into it.
I can still get My5 on my smart TV but where all episodes of a series are available on Roku, that's not the case on the TV app, they only seem to be available up to whatever's been shown on "normal" Channel 5.

It's not a Roku issue. It's an issue with the My5 app on Roku devices. My5 has to fix their app, there's nothing Roku can do to resolve the issue.

Re: My5 crashes when play is pressed
I knew that. I meant to say I was relieved to learn it was a widespread issue ON Roku (and Now).
I'll be more careful with my prepositions in future 😁
