Apple TV and spectrum app issues

has anyone resolved issues between the Spectrum TV app and Apple TV? I have done every single trouble shooting thing and my Sony TV (80” 4k tv purchased in 2021) continues to display anything we try watching through the Apple TV on the Spectrum app as intermittently blurry, freezing, skipping…it is terrible. We can watch via the Spectrum app from our iPads without issue so the issue is the Apple TV & Spectrum app combination. I have deleted the Spectrum app, reinstalled, no fix. I have restarted Spectrum internet as well as the Apple TV device - no fix. Unplugged both - no resolution. Checked my HDMI connection- all is fine with that but picture issues continue. This is worse than having an antenna on my TV w/o cable…

Do NOT try to use Spectrum app. It's is a piece of Sh-t. I have been in a two week battle with Spectrum techs. They won't admit it, but one of them finally told me the same as above. Reason? It was only designed for mobile, NOT TV! That's why it won't work on my Samsung, nor does it work through Apple TV, at least not all the time. I have opened a case with the FCC about the issue, filed a formal complaint four days ago. They all lie about it and pretend it's my TV or some other BS excuse. Cannot record on their Cloud dvr, no sound, can't pause or fast forward or back. So, what's the use? sometimes it works, most it doesn't. I urge you to write about your own experiences here as well. If you Google the CEO, Thomas Rutledge, the first thing that comes up is a huge complaint by his own employees (Charter) saying he's an idiot and none of them have any respect for him.

Same problem-also wiped out my old Harmony One universal remote. Downloaded a Spectrum TV app on my AppleTV4k affixed to my older Samsung NON smart TV. Now Harmony One remote won't do anything. Spectrum claims it is not their fault and the app changes nothing-but it did. Tried everything, still out. Otherwise, AppleTV4k works fine. Deleted the Spectrum TV app from my phone AND from the Apple TV, but nothing changed.
