How to fix Kayo Sports not working
Kayo Sports is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach kayosports.com.au over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check the report level
Check the report level first. The status at the top of this page counts user problem reports for Kayo Sports in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, so a high level points to a wider outage and a normal level does not prove your account or connection is fine.
Rule out your connection
Open another streaming app or load a web page on the same device; if that stalls too, fix your Wi-Fi or mobile data first. Test the exact device. A working phone on the same network does not prove the TV is online, because Kayo Sports can fail on one device while another streams fine.
Force close Kayo Sports
Force close Kayo Sports from the recent apps screen, reopen it, and try the same stream. If it still fails, restart the phone, tablet, TV or console; that clears stuck playback sessions and stale login state faster than a reinstall.
Clear cache or reinstall
On Android, open Settings > Apps > Kayo Sports > Storage & cache and tap Clear cache; if the app still stalls at login or during playback, uninstall it and install it again from the store. On iOS or tvOS, delete the app and reinstall because there is no separate cache control.
While Kayo Sports is down: what to use instead
- Kayo website Try the browser instead when the app stalls.
- Foxtel box Your Foxtel box works if you already have the sports channels there.
- Free-to-air apps 7plus or 9Now can carry the match when a free-to-air channel has it.
- Radio commentary Listen to ABC listen or SEN when video will not start and you only need the action, because radio does not need the same bandwidth as a stream.
What happens when Kayo Sports goes down
Kayo Sports is an Australian streaming service for live and on-demand sports, with apps on phones, tablets, smart TVs, and web browsers. You use it for match coverage and replays, so an outage interrupts live viewing and account access on the device in front of you; the status at the top of each page shows whether user problem reports are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, and it never pings, probes, polls, or monitors the service itself, nor does it check from multiple locations.
Live streams tend to fail first: the app opens and menus load, but the player stalls, shows a playback error, drops to a black screen, or loses audio sync. Replays and highlights can fail the same way; sign-in may loop or reject your password, and the watchlist may not load even when the rest of the app responds. Problems are often partial. One platform or a set of live events can break while other parts of the service work, and reports that cluster can point to a regional issue rather than a full outage.

How we track Kayo Sports
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Kayo Sports, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Kayo Sports, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Kayo Sports doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
