    @NemesisTWarlock @AmtrakAlerts To be fair, this was similar to my roku experiencing issues earlier this morning. Bring back snow!!!

  • ClarkHoward Clark Howard (@ClarkHoward) reported

    @BizzMacc @GusMacST @Roku Do you have anything in writing to show what you were suppose to be charged and proves the pricing discrepancy? Give our Consumer Action Center a call to see if they have resources to help: 636-49-C-L-A-R-K

  • sheepsleepdeep Bren Danflashes (@sheepsleepdeep) reported

    @michelle_cat @lisaquestions Im saying if you log into the Xfinity app from a Roku or streaming device or smart TV, it will block your access if you aren't on your home network. I literally work for thay company, Im not making this up.

  • meistege Greg Meister (@meistege) reported

    @cincysoccertalk My email arrived at 9am. No issues redeeming and it looks pretty nice so far. I’ll be interested to see how it looks on my Roku when im home later. I want to test drive and rewatch a game from last year

  • JohnWThomasJR3 John W Thomas JR (@JohnWThomasJR3) reported

    @Roku @RokuSupport ME TV Spectrum Channel 194 Sound Go's out Please Fix Okay Not But after while out lots

  • alixpaul13 alix paul (@alixpaul13) reported

    Now the Roku remote control is working now, with one exception the volume is not working, so I must use the TV remote, wow. Maybe it will work later with more updates mercy. It should be user friendly not stealing information, FBI. I report it for using all this time, thief.

  • dashaun_a Dashaun (@dashaun_a) reported

    @Crunchyroll I love you. But you have the worst Roku app EVER. At least HBO fixed it over time but not a single change came from you guys. It’s glitchy, sometimes I have to close the app 2-3 times just to watch my anime

  • angie_nord PangeApuff25 (@angie_nord) reported

    @RokuSupport no of your apps will open. Are you experiencing an outage? I've reset my network,tried updating, restarted my Roku and none of that apps will connect. My wifi is running fine.

  • wwefnfurlife ⚠️🚧🚨Redacted TBA🚨🚧⚠️ (@wwefnfurlife) reported

    @spongieupdates Do we have an idea of how this will work on roku? Like will it be on the Roku channel or an app or something? Excited to see how this plays out. Especially if it means new life for shows that got canned by HBO Max

  • alixpaul13 alix paul (@alixpaul13) reported

    I spent my morning troubleshooting There is a fix OK If you buy a Roku Some of this kids return the product to Walmart for a big gain Ok The bug is the remote control to rob you. If you find yourself in German language yes you are infected. Tell someone to bust this kid.

  • KendallBollock Kendall Bollock (@KendallBollock) reported

    @samrumpza Good to know. My directv price has been outrageous recently. I honestly don’t watch any cable live (except sports). We watch everything on Roku apps thru my Directv login. So I hope that YouTube TV has that.

  • peterwhite82211 peterwhite822 (@peterwhite82211) reported

    @BrotherlyGame dumb question - will MLS Season pass work on Roku? Don't have an apple TV thingy

  • BrianByrdman Pugilist Specialist (@BrianByrdman) reported

    @BacchusFan I have a Roku stick that I use for my outdoor TV (which is in the back of my basement now because it's February). Do I need to dig that out and fire it up once a month? Legitimately have no idea how this could possibly work.

  • JoshuaH18955148 Lysergicaciddiet (@JoshuaH18955148) reported

    @Roku should do a deep ******* value biopic. Maybe, get Weird Al to help?

  • Moorin123 David Moorin (@Moorin123) reported

    @RokuSupport Hi, just purchased a Roku Express and I can't update software on setup. Error code is 005, tried resetting router, resetting Roku Express and still doesn't work. I know the internet is working as other devices are connected fine with it. This is really poor so far

  • damngooddoormat Damn Good Doormats (@damngooddoormat) reported

    @kendallbaker I live and work in two different states. Am I supposed to bring my Roku back-and-forth with me? This is dumb. I foresee Netflix losing a **** ton of accounts.

  • thefahrholz Steven Fahrholz (@thefahrholz) reported

    @SeanDuschane They removed the regular app. Now it shows up through The Roku Channel. Unfortunately,there's no way of entering your sign in info. They only let you sign up for a new subscription. That's not great news for someone with an annual subscription paid for already.

  • Dplus_Care_Intl discovery+ International Customer Support (@Dplus_Care_Intl) reported

    @MatRamsell Hello Matt, Thanks for reaching out! and I apologise for the delayed response. The issue is resolved now all you need to do is restart your Roku device and in case you're still having difficulties you can send me the email address linked to your account via PM. Raphael.

    I have never thrown a tv remote as much as I've thrown this Roku remote Not even like out of frustration or anything; the ****** just slips out of my hand and flies across the room, at least once a day Still work though

  • alixpaul13 alix paul (@alixpaul13) reported

    I went to Walmart to a Roku for my TV, during set up I’m a slow reader. Hook is all fine, but while I reading it said English OK. But it comes up in German language. I can’t complete the set up. What do I do? Should I go back to Walmart to get a new one. Help.

  • Jimiderocko Darren (@Jimiderocko) reported

    @corietjohnson @justkyle @justkyle I'm a fan of your artwork on Roku City, What style of artwork is this called ? Does it have a name ? I have seen some posters that were not your work but looked very similar to the style.

  • Axmalander Brian Alexander (@Axmalander) reported

    @NewbergReport You may need to also check for app availability in your TV. Up until September when I canceled it, LG still did not have an app for Direct TV Stream. Not a problem on my Roku TV but I had to use a Firestick on my LG.

    @100tungamer Hello there. Thanks for your reply and sorry for the delay. We were able to solve this situation affecting our app on Roku devices. We apologise for any caused trouble and recommend restarting your device for the fix to take effect. Let me know if you need more help. Annabelle

  • ian_as_portrait @ian_as_portrait@kolektiva.social (@ian_as_portrait) reported

    @snacklesbian i don’t even undsrstand the first paragraph. every 30 says login to netflix…so i can share it and log in at home and at the second place? or like do a roku stick swap once a month lol

  • alixpaul13 alix paul (@alixpaul13) reported

    The whole time Roku is working on Cellphone. Now it won’t let me go to menu to complete this. If I used the Roku remote back to German language twice, since last night. It will work today. They got my money.

  • PeterWalker59 Peter Walker (Official)🥉🍰 (@PeterWalker59) reported

    @ThatGirl1971 Ah. I’m in the UK so we don’t have access to Roku, etc, unfortunately. At least the film isn’t lost. Is it any good? I bet it’s great (I’d feel better if you told me it was terrible and I wasn’t missing anything!)

  • Cartoonico Cephalopod Brainrot (TOH/TLOU Spoilers) (@Cartoonico) reported

    @MationMiss There's also lots of issues with this. Like, what is someone is traveling and tries to watch Netflix on their phone, Tablet, laptop, Roku device and so on? If anything that'll just cause more people to pirate their stuff.

  • TheThomBeck Thom Beck (@TheThomBeck) reported

    @kendallbaker They’ve been making me login on my roku every 14 days

  • curseofsergei curseofsergei (@curseofsergei) reported

    @kendallbaker So how does this work with the mobile app 🤔 I have Netflix on my PlayStation, Roku, and Phone. And I don't password share....am I gonna get blocked lol

  • JoeTeeters Joe Teeters (@JoeTeeters) reported

    @the_hoyk @RussWait2 if he were close geographically, you could use a roku and once a month carry it from location to location to login.
