Apps that don't work or work well with the Nexus 9

[anon(11078)]

I assume these are Lollipop related but so far I've found that the following apps fail on the Nexus 9. Hopefully fixes will happen quickly.

NFL Now - videos buffer strangely and shift from video to video without playing

DirecTV App - Streams buffer endlessly and don't play

Showtime Anytime App - Bottom menu choices cause an immediate crash of the app.

Has anyone else come across others?

Annoyingly Simpsons Tapped out was erroring and dropping right back to the home screen.

To fix this, they removed the game as compatible with the nexus 9, so ... hopefully a fix is on its way but ... yeah.

Comixoligy doesn't work for me. Pages just disappear after I touch them.

Launch-X Pro won't launch. Looking for a replacement app.

Amazon Music with Prime won't even download on the N9. It says designed for phones, but I used to use it on my N7.

Did you download it from the Play store or from Amazon's App Store?

This is what I see from the Play store.

Thanks for the heads up. I use that app all the time on my N7.

Navionics Marine GPS doesn't open but being here in Michigan I don't think I'll be boating for the next 6 months so they have time to update the app.

I installed Angry Birds Transformer and used to FC on opening.
I played it well once, but since it FC all the time
I just checked it's not available on the Play Store anymore (looking it up from the N9)

Amazon Instant Video does not work. When I go to a video's page on the Amazon app, it says this video is not currently available for your device. It works on my Nexus 5, but not the 9.

DISH Anywhere for me

MX Player doesn't support 5.0 yet so it won't load.

There's a test build available that's working on my Nexus 9.

Click on MX Player under Test build.

I ended up using vplayer, which seems pretty nice. Would like a floating streaming player though. Will wait for MX update.

Me too. Hope they get that corrected soon.
