@MSNOWNews your channel on @Roku has not worked in two weeks. Every other channel works fine. It’s you. Maybe you can fix that ****?
Chris Ducote (@cmducote1227) reported 2 minutes ago
@hulu_support @cole_fine Same issue here! Live channels are down. Trying to watch on Roku and all channels are stuck on a loop. Also tried on the iPhone app and get error code p-dev318.
scottycatt (@scottycatt) reported 2 minutes ago
@Roku @TheRokuChannel Just had the worst customer service experience with ROKU. Dealt with 6-7 different reps. Each one telling a different story of why my purchased subscriptions wouldn’t work. Ranged from uninformed to just plain lazy & uninterested in helping. NEVER AGAIN!
Ken Brown (@Ken_Brown_FL) reported 2 minutes ago
Hey @hulu_support I am unable to log In and your chat folks actually hung up on me. I have not moved yet your app says I have. I do not have this issue with any other app on @Roku . #customerservicefail
Periodic Audio: Mobile First Hi-Fi 🏴‍☠️ (@periodicaudio) reported 4 minutes ago
Not to mention, @roku, an app I PAID FOR was deleted and there's no way to reinstall without buying it again. Where do I send the bill to, so you can reimburse me? Seriously you have a great system, but your updates are horribly broken and ruin the system.

youtube forcing all brand accounts to be shown on roku is very annoying. i thought for sure they would fix that but it's been like 2 years. i should be able to choose which of my accounts are visible!
Skippy QSB (@Skippyqsb) reported 6 minutes ago
. @CBSNews what's going on with the CBS News app on @Roku . Only a few videos in the main area, Sunday Morning area has no videos, lastest eps of 48 HRS and 60 Minutes not loaded. Please fix. #CBSNews #ROKU

@cbailsvcu And you didn't even see a Roku time slot on there. Those are the worst.
Jeremy Coles (@JeremyTColes) reported 11 minutes ago
@russ998 @Thrones_Facts I buy the cheapest Roku TV’s that Walmart/target sell in their respective sizes, and I did not have any issues seeing what was happening.
Rodrigo Torres Muñoz (@rodritorres_81) reported 11 minutes ago
@DisneyPlus I'm havig this issue several times now, I't started with @Roku devices and @Roku Tv's at home saying we were not in the same household that I should update my household, so I logged off from all devices, nothing same problem 1/2

@DebbieBelin @EpochTV @SiyamakKhorrami Roku TV has streaming Epoch News channels. Please help them do well. & Watch NTD as well. Their news office was Firebombed, showing they are over the Enemy Target
Mary Ashbaugh (@MaryAshbaugh6) reported 23 minutes ago
@Roku fix your ESPN app please. Tired of the games going backwards and freezing up.
Nic (@LilNic000) reported 23 minutes ago
Hey @DisneyPlus, why are subtitles not working today? First, I tried this week's episode of #OnlyMurders, then I tried the first episode of series 2 of #HighPotential, and neither had any subtitles. I'm in the UK and using a @Roku stick to stream. #Accessibility

The Shudder Roku app was the worst app I'd ever used until I used the Shudder Fire TV app.

@rokudoesnothing @SpaceSama @gekiko_bathory Thank you Roku. I agree. dialing things back to drama doesnt solve things. doesnt matter from whom.i just got riled up and apologize. i hope others actually involved and knowing more who dials what can be of rightious help for both being this awful situation.

@slinganswers Are you guys having issues with your Roku app? Two of my Roku devices updated the Sling app and now sling will not start. Just stuck on the red loading wheel.
Adam Billmann (@AdamBillmann) reported 38 minutes ago
@Verizon hey, why does my home internet default to a different location then I’m at? I cant get my @watchfoxone to work correct because it’s giving me Chicago as my local news, not Milwaukee! How can I fix this? I updated my correct address on @Roku

@MLBTV FIX YOUR ******* ROKU APP. JESUS
Justlivingonearth (@Justlivingonea2) reported 43 minutes ago
@Roku Roku refuses to let me login to my HBO Max account. Now HBO says email and password don’t look right. Yet when I use the Vizio remote, there’s no problem. 🤷🏼
Reigh S. (@ILoveIdahoSpuds) reported 44 minutes ago
@Roku hello, whatever forced update that was just received by my Ultra just bricked my device. Factory reset not working. Error 023.4. “Reset to factory settings” fails. Any suggestions?
Brittany (@mo_brittany) reported 46 minutes ago
@ChristinaSciblo @MyTweetsLie @TeflonBernie I just pay $90 for internet only and stream everything with my Roku tv.. oh and pay $16 for Hulu. Lamar even streams his games and never had problems. Make the switch Bernie

Fix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.

@Roku Please fix the live tv issues
SynRen (@SynRen) reported 53 minutes ago
@Roku I brought a brand new Roku TV on 07/05/24, now it does not work. It has a black screen. I called Roku and did all the troubleshooting, and they said the hardware is dead. I think they should replace their defective product. Yet it says it should last 5 years minimum.

(3) left hateful messages in my VM. I looked up the legit number , called @Amazon and they handled my problem quickly . Also, my friend said his mom experienced same last week trying to call @Roku and was scammed out of hundreds of $.

Hey @slinganswers any ongoing issues that might explain why I can't stream to my Roku, both iPhone and laptop work just fine? Rebooted everything, signed out of all devices, no joy!
