Apple TV keeps crashing NON-STOP!!!

We use Apple TV for all our TV watching in all rooms. We bought them at separate times, but they are the same model. We have Apple TV Software 6.2.1 and Resolution 720p.

Our Netflix and Hulu keeps crashing 3-4 times per show, and our music app crashes when playing songs, whether I am streaming it using Airplay from my iPhone or using the AppleTV app.

Our Apple TV just crashes and crashes and crashes!!!!! YES! I have restarted the Apple TV devices. YES! I have unplugged the modem and router and plugged them back in (in the proper sequence). YES! Our wifi speed is fast enough: over 60 Mbs download & 15 Mbs upload. YES! I have reset our ALL of our Apple TV devices to factory settings and set them back up again as new. I have done ALL of the usual advice for fixing the problem.

We are avid Apple fans but are getting sick of the constant crashing. We can't get through one show without having it crash at least once.

forgot to add, going to also disable the TV app as well. aggregating software like this can be a culprit with memory leaks.

My apps are also constantly crashing and returning to the home screen- it’s frustrating and happening across all my apps. Happens since last software update 11.2.6

Try this - in Settings: General: Screensaver: select Never, to test the theory

that continual d.l. from  can interfere with apps, esp. Music . . . good luck, Tom

I have had the same problem for months. I finally found a solution. Disconnected the Apple TV unit and bought a Roku Ultra.
