App stops working Daily

At least once a day the app stops working it reads "oops something went wrong, sorry for the inconvenience please try again later" and gives an error code of 50001-001 the only fix I've found is to uninstall and reinstall the app and then log back in. It's going on a week now the app and my Element Roku Tv are fully up to date as well

This particular error code has been a problem for several years, at least, when you do a search.  Yet Direct TV responds with the same answer which is some variation of reinstalling the app.  It seems pretty clear that the company needs to fix this app rather than having its customer go through this very inconvenient process on a regular, often daily basis.  I love Direct TV but will not put up with this much longer.  I would at least like to see the company acknowledge this is a problem they need to fix at their level.
