Funimation Xbox App Not Connecting

Dark Argorok · Mar 15, 2017

It would be nice if this app didn't boot me out all of the damn time and all the reviews on the store say the same EXACT thing. Xbox, fix your crap. I pay for Gold and for the subscription and the app should be a lot better than what it is.

Trying to use Funimation App - Won't connect

The Funimation app will not work. I am using an XBox One. When clicking on it, it goes from saying I don't own the app to there is a problem with connecting to Funimation. This just started tonight. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, turned off, then turned
back on. Still same issues.

Funimation Not Updated To Funimation Now??

Good morning,

I was wondering if Xbox will ever update the Funimation app to the new Funimation Now app? It has updated already on my PS4 and Apple TV to Funimation now, but NOT on my Xbox One? :-(. Thank you

Hey there!

Sorry to hear you're having troubles with the app. We highly recommend that you first completely uninstall and reinstall the app, as well as power cycling your Xbox One.

I have the same issue. On Xbox one, it starts playing then tells me it cannot connect to funimation. It is ridiculous and I pay for the premium funimation and can't use it.

Funimation would have to create the app.

If other streaming apps are working ok and its just this one, it could potentially be an issue on Funimation's end. Are you able to stream from any other devices for Funimation?

Anime licensing is a bit of a mess. You can find quite a few series on Hulu Plus (lots of Funimation-licensed stuff) including some simulcasts, but to get a decent cross-section there would need to be a Crunchyroll app (Bleach, Naruto) and a Funimation app.
Funimation is quite behind, though. HD Streaming appears to be new and their simulcasts are two weeks behind in some instances (Eureka Seven AO).
