Good luck. The CBS app is horrible!
My wife has an iPhone with the Apple version of the CBS app; I’ve used the Android version of the app on two different, current Samsung phones; and have also used the CBS app built into my smart TV. On all platforms, the app’s native resolution is meh, and the audio often intermittently crackles and breaks up for minutes at a time, with occasional video stutters along the way.
No other streaming app we have acts this way.
I personally have 16 A/V streaming apps on my phone; 15 of them work fine. My smart TV has maybe 20 different streaming services built-in. I’ve used maybe half of ’em; and again, only the CBS app screws up.
There’s no pattern to it that I can discern. I’ve tried all the various troubleshooting approaches I can think of. But no matter what I do, the CBS app provides an inferior, flawed experience.
IMHO, the CBS app simply sucks. The solution will have to wait for CBS to fix it.

I agree. The CBS All Access app constantly pauses while streaming. It’s annoying!!
One more person who says it’s the worst app I have. And I try to watch football on it. CBS needs to fix it
I’ve tried cbs all access on my smart tv,firetv,iPad,iPhone on everything I’ve deleted apps,cache,restarted,kicked,cried,even talked sweet nothings to my devices and nothing fixes the lag. This bipolar service needs to be evicted. Later big brother but the rollercoaster ride While already getting super nauseous is making me sick it is too much.
CBS all access has the worst tech across all streaming options. I am still having the same issue.
I am an app developer for apps and streaming. All of CBS mobile (really chrome cast) apps, CBS, CBS Sports, Paramount, Paramount + all have the same streaming problem with Chrome Cast. Have tried different WI FI points, with 1Gb baseband internet. All other apps Cast fine. It’s clear they are using the same software to chrome cast and it is just bad. I don’t watch CBS due to this.
