STARZ App Not Working On Xbox
In most cases, the STARZ app doesn’t respond on the Xbox if you don’t activate the app properly. However, if you activated the app but it’s still not working, follow the below-mentioned solutions;
- Check The Xbox
First of all, you have to make sure that you are using a supported Xbox version. This is because the STARZ app only works on Xbox 360 and Xbox One for now.
So, if you are using any previous Xbox model, you won’t be able to access STARZ unless you upgrade the Xbox.
- Power Cycle
If you are using a supported Xbox model, but the STARZ app is still not working, we recommend that you power cycle your Xbox.
This is because when you constantly game and stream on Xbox, the games and apps won’t load properly because the system is stressed.
For this reason, we recommend that you turn off your Xbox gaming console for ten seconds and turn it back on. When the green light turns on, try to stream the STARZ app again.
- Xbox Network
In some cases, the Xbox won’t be able to support the STARZ app because its network is down. To check the network status, open the Microsoft Xbox Network Status page.
If the service is down, you have to wait for the company to resolve the backend glitches and resume the network services.
The Bottom Line
On a concluding note, the availability of the STARZ app on Xbox is a great relief for entertainment-loving people. So, are you ready to sign up and stream your favorite content?
