For the past week or two, Apple TV+ has been stuttering and lagging across several devices. I first noticed it on my television and assumed the TV was the problem, but the same issue happened on my iPhone 17 Pro. Has anyone else experienced this recently? I also downloaded an episode of Ted Lasso and watched with Wi‑Fi turned off, but the stuttering still occurred.

Since it’s happening on both your TV and iPhone, a network problem would be one possibility, especially if other streaming services are affected too. However, testing a downloaded episode with Wi‑Fi disabled makes the network explanation less likely. That points more toward an app, device, or Apple TV+ playback issue. It may be worth checking for app and system updates, then reinstalling the app on one device to see whether anything changes.
I tested a downloaded episode with Wi‑Fi turned off and it still stuttered, so I’m seeing the same thing. That seems to rule out my internet connection and suggests the problem may be with the app or service itself.
