    @Roku I will NOT send a DM so you can ignore me there. Solve the problem here in public so anyone with the same issue can find a solution.

    @Roku UPDATE: I was proven wrong! The Roku TV in question suffered from a software bug, one that the company is aware of and is in the process of fixing. A small number of TVs experienced the glitch, and the company is working to address it. Roku's terrific customer support restored my faith in the company, and I'm so glad we don't have to replace this TV!

    @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🤬🤬🤬🤬

    @Roku It changed over today and it's absolutely terrible. Everything is all over the place and has messed up my apps and home screen. How do I change it back, cause I'm just getting rid of this TV and will avoid using Roku system and products. You know how to lose customers

    @Roku How do we turn this **** off? It doesn’t work for people who use inputs just as much as streaming. I want to sort my Home Screen how I want it. Ironically how my parents Samsung TV does.

    Hey @Roku I not happy right now! Tried to get an issue settled, and your AI assistant was no help. Tried to call corporate customer service, it said I might not even get a call back! REALLY!!!

    @EarperMarine @Roku Are other people having the same problem? It's a Roku and/or TV programming issue that affects the apps running on it. Jeez...what a pain...I'm sure. 😳

    @Roku Man, this update totally screwed up my TV when it finally landed on my TV, the hdmi inputs keep screwing up for the cable box, isnt the cable or box because they work fine on other TV’s. Dog **** new home screen and this issue make me never want another one from y’all.

    Joe Kimray (@JoeKimray) reported

    Wow - this new @Roku Home Screen update they forced on everyone is one of the worst technology “upgrades” ever. Lost the ability to customize the Home Screen - and they added a lot of apps no one wants, that you can’t remove. Horrible decision - the customer is always last…

    @MatthewKeysLive @Roku Most TVs today are purposely not built to last. The industry decided long ago to stress quantity over quality.

    @RokuSupport @Roku paying for your home monitoring service but your Entry Sensors have been out of stock for TWO YEARS. Frontline support has no answers. I need an escalation manager to contact me about hardware availability. This is a security system, please help.

    Taking 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

  • imken24
    Ken Kallembach (@imken24) reported

    @Roku Nevermind. Not only do you refuse to help, but you completely reformat the home screen to “suggest” 20 different apps or shows and only show 1/3 of my installed apps so I have to search for them. You’re useless. **** off. Buying Firesticks Saturday.

    Don'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.
