Streaming is always having issues
The stream app on my Smart tv will lose connection multiple times a day. Live sports come in blurry and lag. This is not an internet issue, because all my other apps work perfectly. This is the most frustrating experience. Thinking about changing streaming services.

The apps for Smart TVs have always been very buggy and inferior compared to using an external streaming device. Most subscribers have opted to go with external streaming devices.

What is an external streaming device? Why are other apps ok? Can’t Direct TV update their app like all other companies?

Streaming devices like Roku, Fire Sticks, Apple TV, etc. DirecTV Stream is very data intensive compared to other apps. Always use an external device. The devices are more powerful and support more apps. They also get more frequent updates. At some point, the TV makers just quit supporting in lieu of selling newer TV's (their business).
