Bbc iplayer won't let me sign in on smart tv

tripled

Another one here that uses Roku even with a "Smart TV". You can get them new for less than 30 quid. Gave our old Tesco telly a new lease of life.

I have a sharp smart tv and for a while it was working fine with bbc iplayer but recently it is asking me to sign in so I click on sign in, it says it is generating a code for me to enter online but this code never appears, it just takes me straight to a screen that says something went wrong and I can't log in. I can't work out how to delete and reinstall the app. I tried resetting my tv and that didn't help either. I have a very upset 2 year old so please help 

Made an account just to reply to this! I'm having the exact same issue and upon googling found this thread. I too reset and updated my Sharp TV to no avail. 

In the end I pressed down on the login page to select the option for people who don't have a smartphone/access to the internet - this allows you to register over the phone and it works! It's not connected to an account so it doesn't track your watch history but better than nothing. I hope this works for you your two year old
