My IPTV app (TiviMate) updated automatically overnight. Now it either will not launch, crashes immediately, or my channels have disappeared. This seems to happen occasionally after updates. What is the right first response before I contact support?
 
App update problems fall into two categories: the new version has a bug, or the update corrupted something in the app's local data. You can usually fix the second category yourself. Here is the sequence:\n\n**Step 1: Restart the device first.** Sounds obvious but an app update sometimes leaves orphan processes running. A full device restart clears this. Try the app after a fresh restart before anything else.
 
**Step 2: Clear the app cache (not data).** Android Settings → Apps → TiviMate → Storage → Clear Cache. This removes temporary files that the new version may have created incompatibly. Do not clear Data yet — that removes your playlists and settings.
 
UK user — 80% of my post-update TiviMate issues have been resolved by the two steps above (restart + clear cache). The app was crashing because the old cache files were incompatible with the new version. Fresh cache resolves it immediately.
 
**Step 3: If crash persists after cache clear — clear Data.** This is more drastic: you will lose your channel groups, EPG settings, and playlist configuration. But your subscription credentials are separate from the app — you just re-enter them. Sometimes a full data clear is the only fix for severe update incompatibility.
 
Ireland — TiviMate stores channel favourite groups, EPG settings, and layout configuration locally. Before clearing data, take a screenshot of your settings panels so you can recreate them quickly. Takes 2 minutes to screenshot, saves 15 minutes of rebuilding from memory.
 
**Step 4: Check if the problem is the new app version.** Search TiviMate communities for posts from the last 24–48 hours. If many users report the same crash, the new version has a bug and you need to wait for an update or downgrade to the previous version (requires having the previous APK saved).
 
Canada — I keep the last stable APK of TiviMate and XCIPTV saved on a USB drive. If an update breaks something, I sideload the previous stable version immediately without waiting for a fix. Takes 3 minutes.
 
App update breaking things tip: disable automatic updates for critical apps. In Android TV boxes you can go to Play Store settings and disable auto-update for specific apps. For Firestick, in the Amazon store you can prevent automatic updates per-app by pressing hold on the app icon and disabling auto-updates. Control when you update.
 
Australia — after any major TiviMate update, go through Settings once to verify nothing has reset to defaults. Hardware decode setting particularly has been known to revert to Auto after major updates.
