Hi all,

I hope everyone is doing well!

Just reaching out to ask a bit more on this issue.  If you are still having the My5 app freezing can you:

1) confirm that is the case still in the reply

2) in the same message, give me a bit of an account on what's actually happening when the app freezes. IE, is the app freezing when you start to playback content? 

3) Finally, have there been any solutions that you have found which at least intermittently fix the issue for a time?

Any other information you think would be helpful would be great 🙂

Marking this as the answer (for now) just so it's at the top of the thread for new user vistiing.

I rebooted a few times and reset apps, it is working now but I don't know if it will work for long, I couldn't find where to clear cache

Hi @savage59 To clear the cache you need to refresh your apps at Settings > System Management > Resets & Updates > Refresh Apps (do not factory reset).

The process can take a few hours but is done in the background do you can continue watching your Glass TV.  I tend to do it at the end of the day so it has overnight to complete the refresh.

Not a fix but 

Exit My5 app and go into another platform, netflix, player etc

Once loaded exit that platform and go back into My5.

Ours works every time..

Still frustrating tho.

Also does it on all four tvs.

I'm thinking it's a cookies issue

@Daniel-FI have posted recently on here https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky-Glass-Live/Unable-to-access-the-My5-app/td-p/4671546 outlining similar problems with accessing content on the My5 app.

Despite me contacting Sky by phone on 18th June 2024 and then again on 27th June 2024, I have not heard anything whatsoever back from anyone at Sky since.

As it is now clear that numerous Sky customers are experiencing similar issues using the My5 app, do you have a date when will this matter be resolved?
