The current Tivo is old, therefore has a slow processor compared with current devices, so it doesn't surprise me that apps are slow to load.


One solution, as OB suggests, is to wait for the new Tivo box. but this may be an increased monthly cost.


Personally, until we know more about the new Tivo, I prefer to use an inexpensive streamer box alongside the current Tivo for apps. This will give you all the apps you mention, plus even more, and they will load quickly.
