No wonder Sky offers Paramount free of charge as part of their sky cinema package, this app by is the worse! It's constantly crashing or buffering! It takes forever to watch an episode of a box set due to this. You would think they would sort this issue but no as per usual Sky rinse their customers and offer crappy deals. Time to change providers!

It's a known issue that the Paramount+ app is very ropey on any hardware it runs on - this isn't Sky's fault. It looks as if it was built in 2014.

I must have missed that memo and as a user that watches a lot on Paramount; never experienced any issues when using the app via an Apple TV box or the TVs (LG) built in app. Guess I'm one of the lucky ones this time.

When the Paramount + app added tneir ad tier it did have several weeks of issues across device platforms.

For me it was having multiple issues on Roku and Sky Stream, until it was fixed..

I watch regular series and films on Paramount + through the week on my Sky Stream and have seen no issues for many months.

It may be worth restarting your Sky Tv device/box, refreshing the apps and performing a broadband hub/restart.

More on apps refresh for each Sky TV platform in this Sky help article, if your not aware;
