TeaTV not working could manifest in various ways from loading, downloading, or even login issues. We narrowed down some of the common problems and bring you this report.

Is TeaTV a legal app?

Our verdict would have to be that it isn’t a legal app. Factors like copyright infringement, license to operate and publishing requirements are good metrics to determine whether an app is legal. TeaTV satisfies some of these requirements but fails in others.

You can find it in Google Play Store which means it has undergone rigorous security checks making it reputable but it is also banned in some countries due to copyright issues.

What can I do if TeaTV is not working?

1. Login issues

On the log in page, you’ll see the Trakt service but not to worry as it is responsible for updating your watchlist.
  • Make sure that you enter the correct login details.
  • Perform a speed test and boost your internet speeds where necessary. You can also switch to an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi if possible.
  • Restart your streaming device and try again later if it’s a server issue.

2. Loading/buffering issues

2.1 Lower resolution settings

TeaTV not loading or constantly buffering indicates insufficient bandwidth to cope with the streaming resolution. You can lower the settings and adjust accordingly until you get to a resolution with no interruptions.

You can also remove other devices from your connection, close unnecessary processes and apps, and remove any bandwidth limits to improve streaming.

  3. Navigate to your browser and log into your router with the correct credentials. You can find that info on the router itself or on the manual of the router.
  4. Go to the Wireless settings of your router and change the router channel to a different one from the default. If you’re using a dual-bound router, make this setting for both bands (2.4GHz and 5GHz).

You can try your luck with the methods mentioned above to get TeaTV working again. They’re not limited to the underlisted issue so you can try them all and see what works for you.

But, if it still doesn’t work, you may have to download an alternative. It’s hard to know what the problem could be without actually seeing the error message and even then, it probably won’t tell you much.

If it’s any consolation, TeaTV is not the only streaming app that faces such issues. Even big giants like Netflix and Hulu are not working at times.
