Q: Home sharing stops loading

I am running latest iOS and El Capitain. Home sharing works fine on my  TV but stops loading at about ⅓ of the way on the "load circle"on my iPhone 6s, 5s and iPad Air2. Anyone else seeing this problem and is there a fix?

 

Thanks.

    Follow-up. I am running 5GHZ  Wifi with 2 printers on WPS. everything is running fine except for the home sharing problem. iTunes is always left running.

    Yep - after the appalling decision to drop home sharing in previous iOS, I was delighted when it returned (and worked) in iOS 9. However latest update to 9.1 seems to have introduced problems meaning library loading is erratic at best; sometimes can't even get the option to link to my library - just get a grey screen telling me to find stuff in iTunes. What has happened to quality control?

    Under 9.1 Home Sharing is now working for me. Had to sign out and back in to iTunes and Music on my phone but now it works like advertised. Sorry if it's not working for you.

    I have the exact same problem. Library circle gets about half way on my iphone then the app crashes. This is infuriating because it worked once with ios 9.1, exactly once and never again. Seems like Apple's quality control is starting to cut corners. I hope this doesn't become a common occurrence. I don't want to be a beta tester.
