Often, Fubotv/connect app problems are caused by random TV software glitches. As with most software problems, the best solution is to turn it off and back on again.
The easiest way to restart Samsung TV apps is to restart the entire TV. However, when you hit the power button on your remote, it doesn’t actually turn off the TV. Instead, it sends it into standby mode, which won’t force a restart of your active app.
There are two different ways to force a restart of a Samsung TV.
Restart your TV using the remote
This first method is the easiest, assuming you have your remote handy.
- Make sure your TV is on (not in standby mode).
- Hold your remote’s power button. The TV will turn off immediately, but you need to keep it pressed until the power comes back on.
- Press the Home button.
- Open the app you were trying to restart.
Since this restarted all of your apps and the TV itself, your app should be working normally again. If not, we’ve still got a few more tricks to try.
Restart your TV manually
The second way to reboot your TV is to power cycle it manually. This method doesn’t require a remote, so it should be possible for anyone. You can also use this process on non-Samsung Smart TVs, so it’s one of the only universally applicable solutions on this list.
- Unplug your TV’s power cord from the wall outlet or surge protector.
- Wait two minutes.
- Plug your TV back in and turn it on.
- Press the Home button.
- Select the app you were trying to restart.
As with the method above, power cycling restarts every app plus the TV operating system itself. It’s the smart TV version of the first suggestion IT people gives for every computer problem: Try turning it off and back on again.
