    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

    @Roku @jjscomedy Roku, we shouldn't have to connect to the internet to watch OTA channels. Please fix this. If there is an internet outage, which does happen, then Roku users are screwed from even our local OTA channels.

    wtf @Roku? What is the deal with our TV. Just left my dad’s house 2 hrs away & his Hisense/Roku TV had logged him out and removed all of his app’s & settings. Just got home to my house and guess what….. all my apps are out of order & all of them require a new login/pw…. Ffffff

    @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.

    @Roku well done , my HD Streaming stick is now getting BBC iPlayer that has been unavailable for the past few days. Obviously a major Tech problem.

    @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?

    @Prime_KD @Apple I think it might be a @Roku problem. I can stream on the Apple app on my phone and directly through the TV, but the Roku app crashes.

    @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!

  • ServiceDogAcdmy
    Mary McNeight (@ServiceDogAcdmy) reported

    @Roku What the HECK did you do to live tv pause? There is no way to fast forward and see where you are in the program. You’ve literally broken the best feature of having a Roku TV.

    @enhanced_games @Roku @ResortsWorldLV Crazy that it took you until now to announce where you’ll be hosting the games. Terrible marketing.

    @CordCuttersNews Great! I will make sure after I throw this POS TV down the stairs that I never buy another @Roku TV again. Every update makes my TV more useless and unusable. Can't wait! 😒😑

  • MattPierceblog
    Matt Pierce (@MattPierceblog) reported

    This entire @F1 and @Apple agreement has been fine broadcast wise but it's this entire bullshit around it being forced into another subscription, lagging latency when using a smart TV, and crap. Just give me my F1 app on @Roku with a single sign in and one reasonable subscription

    @Roku your @espn app is STILL screwed up! Y’all need to fix it!

    @Roku is there a reason why your devices stopped connecting to WIFI? And is this a regional issue? I could connect to the Hotspot on my iPhone. But I can’t connect WIFI to the device. I’ve tried multiple WIFI from different ISPs.

    @Roku I had the worst experience with Aileen in support chat. She was very rude and unhelpful. I love Roku but this is making me very unhappy. I have an overheating device and she said she had to confirm it was overheating before she could help. I mean im telling her. 😞

    @Ask_Spectrum I noticed a bill for $115 MORE on my Spectrum. Turns out, without getting my permission, anyone can add TV services from their TV. Spectrum blamed @Roku - NOT Roku's fault! This is 100% Spectrum ALLOWING my credit card to be billed. Yo Spectrum, FIX IT!

    Anyone else while watching #wrestlemania after a commercial break, it goes back to the beginning of the match that just ended or just a different part in general! watching on @Roku fix this, I'm tired of fast forwarding, then watching another 4-5 mins of ads then back to Mania!

    Never mind a 3 hour #SmackDown whatever is going on with @verizon or my @Roku TV. I can't get rid of this damn playback error. I even did a whole damn factory reset to my TV and still getting error code PLYB_122 for over a month. My TV is BARELY 5 years old.

    @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.

    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.

    @ReelzChannel Having streaming issues tonight? Can’t get past black pickup truck search. Restarted @Roku got to same place and locked up again.

    MrScottFletcher (@MrScottFletcher) reported

    @Roku - your latest updates have really borked antenna live TV recording. Almost unusable. Rewind works until it doesn’t, sometimes just wipes out the buffer, doesn’t show the cursor/scrub time on the timeline, no more thumbnails while scrubbing? Ouch.

    I'll NEVER buy another @Roku TV. Mom's is 8 years old and it was fine. Turn it on, it had all her channel numbers on antenna. Recently it's "updated" with no channel numbers, no way to just have antenna channels, and she wants to replace it because it's "broken". Garbage product.

    Hey @Roku update your TVs. My Roku TCL TV has been consistently having issues displaying anything connected to an HDMI port!

    @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

    @Roku you SOB, you used to have some of the most seasoned and easy to work with tech support operators out there - now you trying to be sneaky, transferring us from one dog **** clanker to another. 😭
