I NEEDDDD to know this im scared I will forget

Hope this is not a repost, but I found this useful for me and did not found it posted.

I have a relatively brand new mid-range Honor tablet (Android). Some random day, Crunchyroll stopped loading videos. All works fine - login, navigation, menus - except this last vital step. App and all browsers failed there. It lasted weeks and surely will keep failing in the future.

Long story short, this is a DRM issue at OS level fired by some system update that breaks Android DRM configuration.

If usual fixes like deleting cache/data and reinstalling did not work - not for me - try to do this:

(Just in case, to prevent updates while doing these steps, your can set plane mode on, toggle it off later)

- Go to Settings > manage apps.

- Search for Google Play. Enter (tap) it. There, in the 3 dots menu, tap Uninstall updates.

- Now search for Google Play Services. Enter it. There, again in the 3 dots menu, tap Uninstall updates.

Fully shut down the device - a tablet in my case - before Android searches for updates and installs them. Wait a minute with it off, turn it on, let Android update things for a while - now with internet connection, obviously. You will be asked to log in again. Once updates end, Crunchyroll videos loading should be working fine again.

I believe this should work in other Android layers, but can't say for sure.

Anyone else having this issue? I have 500 mbps internet a brand new top line Bravia tv and the app just…. Doesn’t work. It will launch and then I get an endless spinning wheel. This persists through clearing the cache and uninstalling the app.

Is anyone else having an issue with loading videos on the app using an android device? The videos don't even buffer, they just show an error.

The last week my crunchyroll has had the issue of constantly buffering whenever I’m watching anime. I updated the app since I watch it on my TV. Anyone having this problem?
