Roku Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
[a case of the blog] (@acaseofthetwit) reportedI normally love my @Roku — I have one for each TV! — but my living room one has been a real issue. The remote randomly stopped working and the device itself now reboots itself multiple times a day (often in the middle of viewing something). Very annoying.
-
Brittney (@hope_britt) reported@DIRECTV & @Roku count your days! Why would you allow a customer to sign up via Roku and thru your services for the same exact product. Why tf would i sign up for the same sorry *** service twice! & for @Roku not to issue refunds after I’ve been charged twice is crazy
-
DeluluDad (@BagLampPillow) reportedFix: 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.
-
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 ****?
-
Matt Pierce (@MattPierceblog) reportedThis 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
-
Ask Spectrum (@Ask_Spectrum) reported@showdedoop My apologies for the Roku problems with our internet services. I know that can be very frustrating. I would be happy to look into this for you. Please DM me. Don. .
-
amb / mindy (@QUINNBAlLEY) reported@perikryptonite slay asf i love roku but no its not working anywhere im so mad rn
-
Periodic Audio: Mobile First Hi-Fi 🏴☠️ (@periodicaudio) reportedNot to mention, @roku, an app I PAID FOR was deleted and there's no way to reinstall without buying it again. Where do I send the bill to, so you can reimburse me? Seriously you have a great system, but your updates are horribly broken and ruin the system.
-
Drew Schuyler (@drewsky1) reported@Roku when do you think you'll get this audio issue figured out? getting real annoying to have to stop and restart because of the audio glitches
-
G.P. (@zerochill13) reportedCrunchyroll has the worst roku app ever. At this point they are better off not offering it at all
-
Philip Logan (@philip_logan) reported@MsSariBrooke @Roku I can’t work out how to watch it here in the UK 😩
-
Melanie Morgan (@MelMMorgan1) reported@fuboTV @Roku @AskAmex Amex, fuboTV and Roku will not cancel my subscription. They each say via bot chat that the other has to do it. But no one will. Can you just block payment? Or where/how can I get help to cancel my subscription?
-
Matt Clapp (@TheBlogfines) reported@cbailsvcu And you didn't even see a Roku time slot on there. Those are the worst.
-
Tim (@jollytimtim) reported@Roku so I bought a 4k device and I've had nothing but issues as it drops video and goes to main screen. I have 1gb wifi and am 10 ft from router, what can I do?
-
DogPerson! (@dog_person20) reported@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.
-
DeluluDad (@BagLampPillow) reportedFix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I went into Picture Settings, turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.
-
Marek Tyrpa @marekt@dotnet.social (@marekt) reported@slinganswers Are you guys having issues with your Roku app? Two of my Roku devices updated the Sling app and now sling will not start. Just stuck on the red loading wheel.
-
Reverend Sarah (@revsarahgarner) reported@Roku @FRANCE24 Your channel on my Roku TV is not working. France24 channel. One of my go-to channels.
-
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!
-
The wanderer (@thewanderer2020) reported@Fightincowboy @Crunchyroll My back button isn’t working anywhere on any Roku remote. Multiple TVs with the same issue. @Roku
-
Ant Murdering She Devil (@ShelleyElwood) reported@TVMoJoe Roku TV, and I've had the same issue on Fire TVs, I suspect maybe only Apple is overriding whatever wonky code is happening in Peacock (because it's not just me)
-
Ask Spectrum (@Ask_Spectrum) reported@Xavier__Gregory @Roku I'm sorry for the trouble with our TV app. I'm not aware of any changes that should cause that to stop working, but if you will please DM us we will be happy to investigate further. - William

shelbzilla (@_shelbzilla) reportedyoutube forcing all brand accounts to be shown on roku is very annoying. i thought for sure they would fix that but it's been like 2 years. i should be able to choose which of my accounts are visible!
