Crunchyroll App crashes on both versions of Apple TV 4K after recent updates.

I have 2 Apple TV 4K versions, one is a Apple TV 4K (A13) A2269 (64GB) running tvOS 18.1 [22J5567a] and the other is a Apple TV (A15) A2843 (128GB) running tvOS 18.0 [22J5324f].

Prior to Crunchyroll App version 3.20.0 everything worked fine on both units.

In fact I was streaming in the morning and saw the new version of the Crunchyroll App version 3.20.0, loaded it and boom it crashed. This was on I believe Oct 15 and I contacted Crunchyroll customer service the next day.

At first the person I was in email contact with was not comprehending the problem. I have since been in contact with Crunchyroll several times explaining the symptoms sending photos of the errors I captured from my tv screen. I gave them all the technical information I had.

I noticed a new version of Crunchyroll version 3.21.0 today loaded it up and it does the same thing.

I am not confidant that this problem is going to be fixed any time soon.

when a new ios version is released it's not uncommond for some apps and games to release new versions to solve issues

if the developer of the apps are aware of the issue they are likely working on making an update

otherwise you can reach out to them

I have a bit of experience in electronics. I was working at Intel on development systems and in-circuit emulators before the first IBM PC came out.

I was between tvOS updates.

"In fact I was streaming in the morning and saw the new version of the Crunchyroll App version 3.20.0, loaded it and boom it crashed. This was on I believe Oct 15 and I contacted Crunchyroll customer service the next day."

I guess I have to be more succinct, I was using the app in the morning and updated the same afternoon!

I have had numerous emails from Crunchyroll which I answered.
