The following tutorial will show you how to fix widget binding failure error in ATV Launcher or Wolf Launcher.
Both of these launchers offer an awesome feature that allows for displaying widgets at the top of the screen.  Unfortunately, some devices don’t support it and results in a widget binding failure error.
One of the most popular reasons to use a widget within these launchers is to show the status of your VPN connection.  When you install Surfshark VPN onto your streaming device, it comes with a handy widget as well.  Most Android TV/Google TV & Fire TV applications don’t offer widgets as those are typically designed for mobile phones and tablets.  Thankfully Surfshark VPN does!      

Thousands of people use Surfshark VPN to protect their identity with various streaming devices such as Android TV/Google TV & the Amazon Firestick.  Although Surfshark does have a working kill switch within their application it ‘s always nice having peace of mind that the VPN is still connected.  The widget does exactly that!
Luckily, there is a simple fix for widget binding failure error and this guide will help you take care of it once and for all.
In this tutorial, we are using the ATV Launcher which is one of few that support widgets.
We have included both a video and screenshot guide to help walk you through the process step by step.
Viewing the video guide is strongly suggested so you don’t miss any steps or important information!
