Update: The Hulu app is no longer crashing on Apple devices
Good news, everyone! Someone fixed what was broken
• Hulu wasn't working on iPhone, iPad or Apple TV this morning.
• The app would open, and then crash.
• Looks like it's working again..
If you have an iPhone, iPad or Apple TV and are having a difficult time watching Hulu this morning — as in it's impossible — you're not alone. The app apparently is crashing just as soon as it opens, which we've confirmed on our end. (Update at 10:30 a.m. ET: Looks like things have been fixed.)
The problem appears to be contained to Apple's devices. We've tested without issue on a Google Pixel 4XL, a TCL 6-Series Roku TV, and on the web — all of which worked as advertised. Xbox and Android TV (an NVIDIA Shield) are fine, too. An iPhone 11 Pro, iPad and Apple TV 4K all are crashing, however.
Similar reports have been flooding the /r/hulu subreddit , with some users saying non-iOS devices were affected earlier in the day. Down Detector is noting the outage as well .
But, really, all you have to do is open the app and watch it close to see that something's wrong.
We've reached out to Hulu to see what's up and will update with any comment.
