Sarah with an h (@SarahDoesKC) reportedThis is a total first world problem, but I lose my mind that it takes 12 minutes and 85 clicks to finally get to the show I’m trying to watch and one accidental step of my dog to wind up on Roku Greatest Hits.
-
B (@shortbumble22) reportedTrying to change the batteries in my @Roku remote for the first time. Except there is a lip at the bottom of where the batteries go, I am sure to help prevent them from popping out on accident...BUT HOW THE HELL DO I GET THEM OUT ON PURPOSE.
-
Jav787.eth 👺 (@Jdrod83) reported@slinganswers Same issue here. I'm in Puerto Rico it's been almost a week I've had to watch nba playoff games and other content on my phone instead of my roku TV. Looks like I'll be canceling my Sling since there's no fix in sight.
-
Stratosfear Tully 🇺🇸🏳️🌈 (@tullyfur) reportedFor years I had my elderly mother perfectly able to operate her @Roku TV. Now the software is so convoluted and dumb I can't even figure out how to fix it for her anymore. It just wants to stream everything with no antenna channels. It was fine and they broke it with software.

Glenn 🇺🇲⚓️ (@gcanderson57) reported@PlutoTV I'm having a lot of issues with your app on my @Roku . The app freezes during commercials and I have exit to Home. My ROKU is running software version 15.1.4 Build 3321. Yes I've restarted the unit and no it doesn't help. Your app is version 5.45 Build 3 I've cleared the ROKU cache, removed & reinstalled your app.

Jim Golis (@jimgolis) reported@hulu_support @Ann_Elyse Not having any issues with Roku Channel, Pluto TV, Peacock, Tubi, freevee, etc. Just checked with a friend who has YouTube TV. No issues there. Might be time to switch.
-
scottycatt (@scottycatt) reported@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!
-
jovanni (@jojodevereaux) reported@Ask_Spectrum is the Roku App for spectrum down? Doesn't work on 3 TVs
-
Rocío (@Gotitadeamor) reportedI don't know why @MLB gave @PIX11News any games when they don't have the infrastructure to actually allow people to watch the game on a TV with a fire cube, Roku etc. Their rinky **** website plus the stupid web browsers on the TV and the fire cube don't work. Let SNY carry it!
-
Ann_Elyse (@Ann_Elyse) reported@hulu_support Hulu live is down AGAIN on all platforms - Roku, app, etc. I've tried all of your steps and nothing works . . . the problem is on your end not the customer!

Christopher Stried (@FullStriedAhead) reportedA lot of times when you sync up using activation Codes they let you choose your device, Roku or @amazonfiretv. That would help here! :) @Xfinity
-
Jim Jennings (@JimJenn78843628) reported@Roku Hey folks, Roku will not help you if you are being scammed by a third party. Roku will take your money but will not interfere with a fraudulent scam.
-
🤔🤦♂️🤷♂️ (@TwittaElite) reportedContacted @RokuSupport last week after their own service (@TheRokuChannel) stopped working properly. A week and a half later, it's still not working. So glad I don't have a subscription through the Roku Channel or I'd be upset.
-
Kickball Legend (@DrinkyUncle) reported@MSNOWNews your channel on @Roku has not worked in two weeks. Every other channel works fine. It’s you. Maybe you can fix that ****?
-
Justin (@Utah_Alum_co) reported@TeamYouTube I am trying to log into YouTubeTV from my Roku tv. It’s telling me to log into my android device. But I don’t own an android. Help!
