About Locast

The linked Wikidata entry (Q6664729) is labeled Locastra and describes a genus of insects in the family Crambidae (snout moths), classified as a taxon. This does not appear to describe the streaming service, so treat the fact sheet as unrelated to Locast the streaming platform.
Locast is a streaming service that delivers live local broadcast channels over the internet. When it works, it feels like ordinary TV. When it stalls, you usually see buffering, a blank player, or channels that refuse to load. This page tracks current service status and recent problem reports, so you can tell whether the trouble sits with Locast or with your own setup.
Locast streams live broadcast television through its apps and website. You sign in, pick a channel, and watch in real time. Because everything is delivered live, there is no catch-up buffer to hide problems, so small hiccups show up immediately. The most common issues are playback that freezes or buffers, channels that fail to load, and login errors that block access entirely. Live streams also depend on your connection holding a steady speed, so brief network drops show up as stuttering video. Server-side faults can affect everyone in a market at once; local issues usually affect one device. Before reporting a problem, try a few basics. Restart the app and check whether other streams play on the same device. Test your internet connection. If you use a VPN, turn it off, since it can affect channel availability. If the app is outdated, update it. If everything on your side looks fine and channels still will not load, the fault is likely with the service itself.

Questions

Is Locast down right now?

According to reports on this page, Locast looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for Locast yet.

Why does my Locast stream keep buffering?

Buffering usually points to your connection rather than the service. Live streams need a steady speed with no dips. Try moving closer to your router, closing other bandwidth-heavy apps, or switching to a wired connection. If other services also stutter, the problem is your network.

Why can I sign in on one device but not another?

This often means the app on that device is outdated or its stored login data is stale. Update the app, then log out and back in. If the error persists, clear the app's cache or reinstall it. Account-level problems are rare if other devices sign in fine.
