Troubleshooting
BeeTV Shows No Data or Empty Screens
Blank catalogues usually mean a metadata API failure, a DNS problem or an expired API key.

Empty rows with a working app shell point at the metadata layer rather than playback.
Metadata API failure
Catalogue apps pull titles and artwork from public movie databases using an API key embedded in the build. If that key is revoked, rate-limited or expired, every list renders empty while the app itself behaves normally. Nothing on your device can fix a revoked key.
DNS and network filtering
- Aggressive DNS blocklists can null-route the domains the app queries.
- Some ISPs block domains named in court orders, producing the same symptom.
- Router-level parental controls and school or workplace filtering do this too.
Local data corruption
If lists were previously populated and suddenly are not, clear the cache first, then app data. Clearing data resets settings and local history but rebuilds the metadata store cleanly.
