Sportsfire.tv won't open

Thanks for the code pirate77. Was able to download the app, but will not connect to the internet. Spinning circle then “251: Unable to connect. Please restart your internet and try again later OK.” Do I need to turn off Surfshark VPN?

does it sometimes come out of app and retry normally works

Went to my Youtube tv app. Then back to Sportsfire, and same message showed up again. Just now disconnected the VPN, and it worked. Other people here have expressed that they would want to use a VPN with Sportsfire. I agree.

Streamfire works fine with Surfshark which is interesting as it is from the same stable as Sportsfire, but it only shows channels and not individual matches.

I’ve tried everything with the same result. It works fine with no VPN and with another VPN - Windscribe. It is baffling. As it used to work with Surfshark something has changed in that service which is causing it not to work now. This is both with an older version of Sportsfire and tbe latest version

cant really help i dont use

Just saw this from Sportsfire on Telegram.

I would wonder if they will inform someone when they resolve the problem?

Sportsfire keeps getting deleted somehow. I usually fire it up on the weekends and every time it’s gone from my app list. I have to go back into by file manager and reinstall the apk.

What device are you using

if its firestick turn off automatic offload in settings

It’s been acting squirrelly the last few weeks. I switched to: streamfireapp.tv or 197959. It’s a sports fire clone

I believe Streamfire is not a clone but a seperate app by the same developers.

Sportsfire focusing on the games scheduled by day and teams. Once the game is over the link will eventually stop.

Streamfire has sports channels as well as other channels. You can still get sports but need to know the channel its on. The sports channels are available all day as long as it has programming.

Nvidia shield pro, guessing whatever is the latest model. Purchased from Best Buy earlier this year.

Instead of looking for it on your home page apps, try long pressing the home button and see if it shows, or do as I do and install the Sideload Launcher to see apps like Remote ADB Shell and Malwarebytes that do not show on my home page.

Sportsfire stated on Telegram that their issues have been resolved.

Has anyone tried using Sportsfire with a VPN with success?

Yes. Works with my IPVanish vpn.
