Paramount + app on contour doesn’t work

Hey Cox, have you fixed the issue Paramount + yet? The other threads started about this issue have been locked. That’s an interesting way to cut down the number of complaints.

We just signed up for Paramount + and it doesn’t work very well. Constantly hangs up and crashes. Before you send condescending emails about getting a new box which is not always the fix. But all other apps, Amazon Prime, Netflix, YouTube, Max, etc all work fine. I have removed the app and reinstalled, still the same worthless / unusable app. Please fix, as much as we pay for your services plus streaming I expect everything to work.

Thank you

    I have a similar issue. I can log into the Paramount + app just fine. When I click on a program in the Paramount + app, it spins and gives an error "Something went wrong. Please try again later." All of my other apps work perfectly. I have tried everything. Logged out of the app and logged back in. Unplugged the router and reset it thru the Cox app. Unplugged the Cox streaming box. Nothing works. I just moved to this house with all new Cox equipment. It worked fine at my old house on the same TV with a Cox streaming box. Please help! I'm very frustrated.
