FAQs
No. Unfortunately CTV is a geo-restricted platform, and it is available only to users in Canada. To stream CTV outside Canada, you can use VPNs to watch your favorite show.
CTV might not work if the app is incompatible or due to the poor internet connection. Therefore, check the internet speed and restart the router. You can even restart or update the app to fix the issue.
