Problem with Netflix since the update to Android 11 Samsung a40

[K125sx]

Hello

My a40 was running fine than the update to Android 11 came and it messed it up..

Netflix and prime were freezing and crashing. I already disabled HD playback on prime and now it works fine,but Netflix is still crashing. I already reinstalled the app and it didnt help :(

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Kind regards

Same problems here. Factory reset. Updated every app I had problems with. Nothing works...

YouTube is OK? if you dont mind could you please upload video?

Solved (temporarely untill update to Android 12) by disabling the webview app.

Settings 》apps》

Search webview

Disable it

Netflix works again

[HarryDaBosS]

after disable webview no reset at all?

YouTube is the only video app that works. 

Disabbeling Webview did not work on my phone...

Seriously? I was swearing netflix app and Chrome but the actual issue was the forced android 11 update??? Get your **bleep***** together and fix this ASAP!

Was there ever a solution offered to this? I'm still struggling with Netflix and I've done everything. I've given up trying and started watching stuff on our spare Nokia phone coz this is so annoying!

Sorry that doesn't fix the problem. It worked for about 2 hours. Then Netflix/Google Movies/Amazon Prime video crashes / freezing came back again.

Not buying Samsung garbage again.  Sell you a phone then force shoddy update on you that bricks your phone and then they do nothing about it.

I have similar problem and tried reinstalling netflix to no avail.  Very frustrating.
