-
Lonell Fletcher III (@iii_lonell) reportedIs anyone else having issues with @Roku ‘s app?
-
Jake K (@Jakewk) reportedOk @Roku I’m trying to watch Fracture on my Roku TV Channel and you have a perverse glitch that when I try to rewind for a short time, it sends me back to the first few minutes of the movie and when I try to get back to the spot, it makes me watch all the ads again. WTAF.

whipofcords (@whipofcords) reported@TCL_USA @Roku these new updates suck! Fix it!!, now my tv just shuts off, when ever it wants!
-
KrisNVnmiP (@SophieMae1022) reported@red_chem_lite @Roku Try the bitter apple spray, it really deters some dogs from chewing specific items. A little of it rubbed on the remote might work. Also have you tried the ultrasonic sound deterrent? That stopped our dogs from bad behaviors. If you see them going near the remote press it. After a few times they should associate the remote with that unpleasant sound (that only they can hear!) Good luck
-
Greg Spencer (@gspence1) reported@Roku had to sign into @AppleTV AGAIN. This is what I see. It’s the correct password. Only option is to exit out and do it again which gets me to same blank screen. It’s always Apple that I have issues with.
-
1980s Boxing (@80sBoxing) reported@Roku It's awful. More clutter I do not need and I need to click down just to get to all of my apps. Simple and streamlined is always better. Why are you trying to fix things that aren't broken?
-
Jennifer Glazer (@JLGlazer) reported@Roku hello. I need help repairing a remote with my Roku. I have followed instructions online, but it’s not working.
-
USmileIClick (@USmileIClick1) reportedFinally, @Roku My mother has limited vision. When you force changes to your UI, like putting things in “quick access” you add unnecessary frustration for her and me, because I have to come fix it. Think about your users and not you pocket book or your crappy 20 YO UI devs.
-
Bob Rickert (@bobrickert) reportedTaking out the remainder of my Amazon Fire Cube controllers @amazon I have 3 and I thought they would all work well. Tried one Roku Stick and it is a much better experience. Too much advertising and useless stuff on Fire Cube plus it never really worked that well with You Tube TV. @Roku
-
Benji (@BenjiShaw7) reported@Roku Fix your new homescreen. Its takes almost a dozen button presses compared to 2-3. This update is ****. Fix it or give us the option before I replace this thing.
-
Zakk Cornish-Fraser (@ZakkRyan) reported@swiftfairy_13 @DiscussingFilm @Roku I highly recommend any tv that doesn’t have a build in service like Roku. Many makers and retail chains can sell same models but last few numbers are dif so you get less quality out of it. There’s some fantastic options out there though
-
Rhymes with funky (@KirkYuhnke) reported@MatthewKeysLive @Roku Problem is... finding an actual "dumb tv" is almost impossible anymore. The business model for TV companies has shifted. They don't make $ when I buy the TV anymore.
-
CKAKRK (@CaitlinKazarian) reported@Roku your support sucks. It says it’s an agent but it’s just AI. Sent multiple screenshots and the “agent” didn’t even bother to open. Sick of paying for subscriptions that I can’t use on my tv. No one is of any help. Done with Roku and being charged for things I can’t access!
-
Mario Banda (@largemarge707) reported@Roku just got home from work, sat down to watch the game on Peacock. But guess what. Your stupid widget had the France Spain score displayed. One of the last few world cup matches left to watch and your stupid home screen ruined it for me🤬🤬🤬🤬
-
SportsTurfPro (@sportsturfpro) reported.@NFL @Roku app is repeatedly crashing this morning. HELP! 🏈
-
Connie Jeffus (@nikbus99) reported@Roku can't sign in. no email sent to reset p/w. can't find customer chat support. Please cancel free trial of Great Courses
-
Novangelus (@MLandry70) reportedAre there any good music apps that work on @Roku? Because the @amazonmusic app just plays completely random songs no matter which song I actually select.
-
SaltyNurse (@MindyNDuncan) reported@Roku your sure have some **** products! Can't fast forward without the show restarting. Can't get quality sound from the other roku I have. What gives!
-
Random Acts of Crochet Kindness (@stuckathomemom) reported@Roku @Ka_Le_Jo How to FIX your #ROKU home screen: Go into: -Settings -Home Screen -Recommendation Rows ---> set to HIDE -Quick Access ---> set to HIDE Now everything is back to normal!

-
Mike Bryant (@djmikebryant) reported@Roku please bring back the other Home Screen. This new one is awful. Thanks
-
Jesus's Flunky (@CrucifiedAgape) reportedDon't know whether it's my @TCL_USA @Roku TV or my @dish Hopper 3, but Lordy, I have to do a hard reboot on them nearly everyday to get them to work together.
-

-
Mandie Daniels (@mandiemw) reportedHey @PureFlix fix your payment system via @Roku please. I am not having multiple places bill for our tv. It goes through Roku or we don’t get it. I’d like to have the service back, but I’m not subscribing via your website.
-
Jinxsyns (@Jinxsyns) reportedThis is why I'm so pissed at @Roku and one of the examples i gave in my posts another multi billion dollar company that somehow can't get a website to work right yet has millions in testing hardware or at least millions available to test the site before rollout but thats too hard
