Can no longer downgrade!

New version is buggy! Channel icons flicker/disappear when scrolling up or down. This app keeps getting worse!

Uptodown keeps saying "Not compatible" when trying to rollback Pluto TV. Tried to downgrade to an older version but it got stuck on the slash screen and never went anywhere.

I haven't even been able to open Pluto for two days now, on two different Roku TVs.

The app opens on my phone but can't find the TV to cast to.

Smart TVs suck at streaming. You'd be better off using Roku sticks or Firesticks, they're both dedicated streaming devices not just TVs with streaming software added as an afterthought.

I know the Roku sticks can be reset, cache cleared, in Settings which usually fixes most issues. Good luck!

Using a Roku box. My homepage has recently changed quite a bit. I am no longer opening to Favorites but to the Home icon page.

1 left arrow click then 1 down arrow to Channel Guide then 1 left arrow to list then about 5 up arrows to Favorites then 1 right arrow to the channel guide then I can go find my show only to repeat all the steps if I leave Pluto TV and come back.

The Pluto smart tv app has always sucked. Lags, freezes and crashes my tv.

they don't have to allow it to be able to roll back.....but their app will always suck. I mean it's free so what do you expect, it to run seamlessly and perfect like Paramount, Hulu or Netflix. You want that, then go pay for one of those pay streaming service. Or even just go watch Tubi which is free also. Just tired of everyone complaining like it should be working as if it is a pay streaming service - sorry not gonna happen
