Roku Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PRIMALDATA PRIMAL. DATA damn (@PRIMALDATA) reported

    @ZodMagus But thats the problem. I have an LG TV, why should I get a Roku stick it should be Native. Disney+ is native, hell TWITCH is native to my TV now. It was always a terrible decision

  • Derrick11547787 Derrick Johnson (@Derrick11547787) reported

    @Roku i just purchased and activated my Roku streaming stick+ and I am supposed to be eligible for 3 months of Apple tv+, however I can't seem to get the promotion to work. Is this false or just not working correctly?

  • CCTakato CCTakato 🏳️‍🌈 (@CCTakato) reported

    @ChibiUFO @MichaelToole I also have a weird issue with the HiDive channel on the VRV Roku app doubling the subtitles.

  • lyon_lyon2 Hunter Lyon (@lyon_lyon2) reported

    @DisneyPlusHelp The service keeps freezing and stopping on laptop, phone app, Roku app, and Xbox app. I'm sick of it. Can you please fix this problem?

  • Vonocourt Sean (@Vonocourt) reported

    @AmazonHelp It's going in circles, the video shows the same problem on the browser player, PS5 and Roku TV app. Basic trouble shooting is not going to work, its a problem with the video you guys are streaming.

  • delvsuxx deldls (@delvsuxx) reported

    People calling Korra the worst avatar, when the air nomad genocide happened during Roku’s time will never make sense to me

  • CCTakato CCTakato 🏳️‍🌈 (@CCTakato) reported

    @ChibiUFO @MichaelToole I always feel alone that I’ve never had any major issues with the Roku app. Apparently I think it’s mostly the PS4 app that’s bad.

  • blsedbx3 Sharon Gaught (@blsedbx3) reported

    @StreetsAjed @redbox Yes my Amazon Prime is doing same buffering and saying try again and no internet connection. Just had new modem put in and Amazon redo all its hacks..still nothing. My other apps work just great. So they broke something. If Roku ..I need new tv. We just got this one.

  • KAYLAKATSURAGI The Legend of Kayla (@KAYLAKATSURAGI) reported

    @__DarkShadows crunchyroll app on roku sucks too; i have to login almost everytime i go on and it crashes multiple times while using it

  • FarahHeron Farah Heron 🌸Preorder Accidentally Engaged🌸 (@FarahHeron) reported

    @JackieLauBooks @Gray_Plume You could get a fire stick or a roku to get Disney to work on your TV. We probably watch Disney+ the most, other then Netflix. We have Prime too.

  • IanR_Goldsmith Ian Richard Goldsmith ❼ (@IanR_Goldsmith) reported

    @Roku please please fix my Roku TV! After the last update @YouTube won’t work! It was my most used app! Please help!!!! It’s been months!!

  • Mattysquerades Matty's Masquerades - Wear A Mask😷 (@Mattysquerades) reported

    @MissIVY_League I hope it does too, because I have a free trial for CBS All Access, and while it worked before, the Closed Captions don't work on my Roku, and it keeps freezing for a few seconds at a time on my computer.

  • phya_manga Nicola (@phya_manga) reported

    @LAOxLauren @FunimationUK I bought a Roku (one for upstairs, one for down) to get round this problem but I've had to lend one to my in laws during the pandemic

  • CCTakato CCTakato 🏳️‍🌈 (@CCTakato) reported

    @ChibiUFO @MichaelToole But the RetroCrush app is terrible on Roku.

  • CiaoStefania Stefania Pomponi (@CiaoStefania) reported

    Whyyyyy are they trying to send a technician to my house to fix an app issue! The app doesn’t show channels: not on mobile devices, not on Roku TVs. A tech is going to want to deal w/ hardware. Which I don’t have. Unless you count the box I’m going to receive that I don’t need!

  • Doozzzer Doozer (@Doozzzer) reported

    Hey @joerogan I’m back. Reaching out once again because the Spotify Roku App sucks. I’ve always watched the show on my Roku TV and can no longer do so since everything is exclusively on Spotify. Please help

  • StreetsAjed Jed Shaffer (@StreetsAjed) reported

    @redbox Tried renting a movie from your Roku app tonight. Kept stopping and buffering. I know my internet is fine, because other streaming apps are working without issue. Very disappointing.

  • UnfadedThreat UnfadedThreat (@UnfadedThreat) reported

    @UmaineMark72 @LimpingPanda @Roku Why work around the problem though? By casting I no longer can use those devices. I see your point, but his issue is not being able to stream on the Roku TV or device.

  • hijodelapantera Charlie Bonet (@hijodelapantera) reported

    @vonpeepster Guess I’ll need that Disney Plus, but I’m still waiting on HBO Max to work on my Roku TV.

  • MorielleJunisee Morielle🌻 (@MorielleJunisee) reported

    Anyone ever have issues with random people hacking your @Roku ?? This is so frustrating!

  • HulkieD Matt Williams (@HulkieD) reported

    It launched without support for the top two set top boxes in the market. No Amazon and No Roku was inexcusable. They fixed the former. They're trying for the latter. If Roku support is not there for WW84, that's a huge problem for WarnerMedia.

  • DennisSinneD Decorative December Dennis (@DennisSinneD) reported

    @scottjohnson My main problem is how to access it. I got it via Hulu on the Roku but not really. They don't tell you that you actually have to login via the HBO Max app(non existent on Roku) to get the Max content. Its just very confusing haha

  • invalidname Chris Adamson + 😷 (@invalidname) reported

    @MichaelToole @KeikakuKat @ChibiUFO Funimation app? I sometimes have problems selecting seasons on iOS. Roku app seems to work pretty well (mostly just using it for Fruits Basket, though).

  • gourmetwood JtotheK (@gourmetwood) reported

    @hbomax please work something out with @Roku, we’re in a pandemic and could use your full content.

  • MW_GoJoeBruin Matt Wagner (@MW_GoJoeBruin) reported

    Got the Dish login thing figured out. Does anyone know if there's a Pac-12 Network Roku option now or is Larry Scott still running his TV network like it's 1970?

  • nicholeezell1 A mask and a seatbelt are not so different🌈#BLM🌹 (@nicholeezell1) reported

    HBO MAX's continued existence and indeed, it flourishing is a constant annoyance these days. It won't work on my ROKU, I can't afford it, and everything I want to watch is inevitably on there... Aarrgghh 👿

  • SchuillerBlaze Schüiller Blaze (@SchuillerBlaze) reported

    @Sony so glad you acquired @Crunchyroll so you can fix their god forsaken roku app! Please update all their apps they don't work!!

  • kaseundercover megan thee stallion’s queef (@kaseundercover) reported

    idk if i want a fire stick or roku someone help me 😩

  • UmaineMark72 MarkM (@UmaineMark72) reported

    @UnfadedThreat @LimpingPanda @Roku Its not a work around. its how all those devices work. Theres 1000 ways people can watch the app but they are either to lazy or not smart enough to use it another way. instead the come in every roku tweet and act like roku is the only way they can get any content on their tv.

  • valentinemonsta Valentine V. Sparklthrust (@valentinemonsta) reported from Louisville, Kentucky

    Okay @hulu if you are not willing to fix the skipping to the end of show issue on roku I'm canceling my subscription. This is stupid. Your app has ruined 3 different shows by skipping to the last 10 mins just randomly giving away the ending.
