I don't know when (or even if), but yes, it can be frustrating when I forget.

Two things, though.

1) when you are done watching for even an hour or so, back out of the app with the back-arrow button only (do not use the "home" button) until you get to the quit prompt, then quit. This prevents your connection from timing out (most of the time).
2) Also, when the error does occur, try doing a power cycle first before going through the clear cache/data process. Save that for only a last resort if the power cycle doesn't work either. That can (most of the time) save you having to log in again.

Thanks so much. I've been going crazy the last 2 weeks trying to figure it out. This Firestick gives me too many headaches.

App is broken for me right now. Doesn't remember my queue or watch history. Logging out and back in doesn't work. Only remembers when I uninstall and reinstall. If I watch a show it doesn't appear in history later either but it does let me watch stuff.

Bukuma, I'm having the same problems. It won't even let me log out of the app though.

I went into the FireTV settings, applications, and manage installed applications, then did clear data on it. I had to login again, but a bit faster than uninstalling/re-installing.

It restored my queue/history from the site, but we'll see how long it lasts.

About ready to give up on Crunchyroll all together, the app will load, but then freezes or repeats infinitely on just ads, even had premium and still was getting ads. So that's just more reason to just go to Hulu and other services for anime since they maintain their streaming platform.

As for those people dealing with the "missing history," on your front page, just go to the Fire TV app settings, and clear the data on the Crunchyroll app. It'll force you to log back in, but your history and favorites will return.

End of November now this bug still isn't fixed.

Are we ever getting a better experience outside the website?
I want to watch this in my big screen without having to cast or hookup my computer to my tv.

FWIW, I've typically find two big issues in my use:

In cases where I login and I get no data for my queue/history: I can usually clear app data and login again. Seems to happen infrequently almost like the cached login data expires after some months but isn't handled properly in the app. Once or twice I had to both uninstall and remove the key in my account settings :X.

In cases where the damned thing crashes I've usually found it related to bringing an episode or a series into view. E.g. I keep Charger Girl S1E6 towards the end of my queue because the apps on my Fire TV crash whenever I scroll too close to it. Sometimes this also occurs in the updated episodes view, so I am guessing it is episode specific not just series specific.

Other things like issues with promo videos or whether back might go a little too far back, are fairly minor.

In general Crunchyroll has sucked at supporting their applications compared to their web page. But at least their Fire TV app doesn't crash anywhere near as often as their Xbox One app....which is basically the worst they have, lol.
