I usually give this browser five stars but lately it's been closing suddenly without any reasons why after resetting it reinstalling it it's still doing it not for sure what's going on hopefully the Publishers can advise me on how to fix this or there are on their way to repair it now

I do not have the exact model of your Android TV device, but most Android TV devices are very similar, e.g., powered by the Amlogic S905 CPU. Let me know the URL of the video you were watching when Puffin crashed. Edit: Confirmed that this release (released a few days ago) is bad. It uses more RAM so that it may not work on some Android TV devices.

Latest update has made video streaming impossible. Everything is super slow and videos are buffering non stop although my broadband speed is high and stable. App seems also not responding to commands like clicking full screen.

I just tested Puffin TV Browser on Xiaomi MiBox S (the same device as yours), and Puffin worked well. What is your country and broadband provider? What is the name or URL of the website you have trouble streaming?

I won't completely trash it like many are for the subscription. It is a functional browser, and works with the new Chromecast with Google TV well. It may even be the only one as far as I can find. It can play videos in browser, and generally functional. For that you deserve more than 1 star. However, your price plan does not. Yeah, $10 for a year subscription of anything is negligible, but that doesn't make it sensible. I could do it without thinking, but I have such a hard time supporting that model because its frankly anti-consumer to charge a subscription for your app like this when you're not needing any major server upkeep or anything. I could understand a $10 one time purchase (still would be high mind you) but to expect that regularly just seems like you're trying to exploit the market. It doesn't even have the options for tabs so I can keep multiple pages open. If you had some deep settings like I could customize navigation on the remote and tabs, and if you had some more specialized integrations than QR codes then I might understand more. But it just feels like you're on the edge of exactly as useable as I could expect at the bare minimum past playing videos, and that I should be happy to pay for that. Unfortunately, I'm just not sure I am or that I can recommend anyone else does so either. If you rethink your business model to a one time payment, then call me and we can talk.

Puffin runs web browser session on the cloud servers. Additionally, all video traffic must go through the cloud servers, too. You assessment that "you're not needing any major server upkeep or anything" is not correct. We do not expect users to know how Puffin works internally.
