Common problems with Okko TV
For high-quality playback of various video formats, a certain Internet network speed is required: SD-2Mbps, HD-3.5Mbps, Full HD-5Mbps, UHD-25Mbps. For a better connection, connect with a LAN cable instead of Wi-Fi. If for some reason the Okko application does not start immediately after connecting, or it runs very slowly, crashes, etc., please reproduce the following steps:
- Restart your device. After turning it off, wait about half a minute, then turn on the power again. The actions are aimed at clearing the cache and stabilizing the device’s operating mode.
- Restart your router. Turn it off for half a minute and then turn it back on.
- Disconnect other devices from Wi-Fi. Problems in the operation of the Okko application can be caused by the fact that it gets little Internet – it is “eaten” by other devices connected to the network. Disconnect them from the common Internet source.
- Install the latest version. Check if the latest version of the application is installed on the device. If not, update it by clicking the appropriate button in the app store.
These are general recommendations that help in most cases. If you couldn’t solve problems with the platform’s operation on your own, contact the 24/7 technical support.

User Reviews
Julia Utkina, Yekaterinburg, 30 years old. Good picture and sound quality, you can find and watch popular films for little money (and sometimes even for 1 ruble). There are free movies from the golden age of cinema. You can stop the film, rewind, go back, etc.
Mikhail Selivanov, St. Petersburg, 25 years old. You can’t rewind a movie on a Sony TV. The film allegedly remembers where the viewing stopped, but then it still starts playing from the very beginning. The application often crashes and an error message appears, especially on weekends.
Alexander Viktorov, Nizhnevartovsk, 41 years old.We watch in the evenings with my wife instead of TV. With normal internet speed everything is fine. There is only one minus for us – even having bought the most expensive subscription, some films still need to be purchased for an additional fee. The Okko platform is gaining popularity. People want to choose how to brighten up their evening, and online cinema is the best fit here. After all, even looking through all your 300+ cable TV channels, sometimes the question “what to watch?” remains open. Okko will help with the answer, giving you the opportunity to choose content to your liking.
