    @Roku You should be concentrating on making your site work. The app doesn't work & your website doesn't work either

    @Roku hello. I need help repairing a remote with my Roku. I have followed instructions online, but it’s not working.

  • 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.

    @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!

    @Roku what’s wrong with the Roku Channel. Freezes and very long to load. Only thing giving any problems

    @Roku your streaming stick is not working and I can’t find a way to return it. Your support page is asking to speak with someone but the number is not connecting. Not a good support model I see

    @foxone @Roku the foxone app runs bad on the roku. Constant errors. Error:PL--28

    @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.

  • Damian08993101
    Damian (@Damian08993101) reported

    @DeadCarnival @Roku It’s crazy how @Roku doesn’t realize that a clean interface is their one best quality. I am tired of having to turn off the same unwanted features over and over again. And with the latest crappy update, I’m stuck with a lot of junk that can’t be turned off. Awful.

  • MrScottFletcher
    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.

  • EKershner
    Eric ✝️🇺🇸 (@EKershner) reported

    Hey @Roku. I had a device apparently fail. Bought a new streaming stick and there was nothing wrong with the device. Now I am thinking this is a "you" issue. Currently, I am unable to add the new device. In addition, I am able to log into my account via the Web but not the Android app.

  • blau_vic_grana
    Victor Valencheck (@blau_vic_grana) reported

    @Roku I HATE this update. I want control of WHAT I see on m6 homescreen. I have to scroll down the page past a bunch of crap to see MY APPS. Fix this now!

  • GojiraOmega
    Kaiju Cowboy (@GojiraOmega) reported

    @Roku @RokuSupport This was not worth the awful updates you made to this tech. I can't even organize my inputs anymore

  • DronePremier
    YourHead Drone (@DronePremier) reported

    @daisy_musician @paramountplus @Roku Paramount is the only one we had issues with. Appears it was a Walmart plus issue for us.

    @TucsonBlonde @Roku Amen. If you can't find soccer without Roku's help, you need to be placed in assisted care.

  • iii_lonell
    Lonell Fletcher III (@iii_lonell) reported

    @Roku fix your live tv displays. It shouldn’t be so hard to list what’s being shown when it’s supposed to be in constant rotation. I’m sick of seeing NO DATA AVAILABLE

  • Samanthawood2k
    Samantha (@Samanthawood2k) reported

    @roku please fix screen settings! The F1 app is zoomed in. I’m missing so much information. Tried many different fixes. #roku #screensize #issues

  • shareastronomy
    Ken Hudson (@shareastronomy) reported

    I need to get off of @Roku here in the US. Changing the home page was the last straw. Any suggestions for an alternative? I could use some help.

  • allherdanger
    court (@allherdanger) reported

    Idk wtf Roku did but every time I'm paused too long now it doesn't go to the screensaver I have set up, it goes to a Roku thing and then I can't get out of that screen without going to the home screen first?? FIX IT @Roku and don't you dare blame me, I checked my settings

  • HockeyDad2AandZ
    HockeyDad2A&Z (@HockeyDad2AandZ) reported

    Hey @Roku, no one asked you to do up the home screen. I used to be able to have HDMI 1 and 2 in the top row and now I have to go into the inputs to select them. That's stupid bullshit. I want my old home screen back. Not this fkng mess. Fix this.

  • mrhappybw
    Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reported

    @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.

  • Samael1976
    LIBER000 (@Samael1976) reported

    @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! 😒😑

  • chinedu_10
    chinedu🦀 (@chinedu_10) reported

    @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.

  • Gundament
    Kris G. (@Gundament) reported

    @Roku Hey can you guys fix a bug on your new Home Screen? When you click on the inputs from the home screen shortcuts, we are getting a green and blue lines all over the screen. But when we click the Inputs from the "Input List" tab, they work fine. Please fix in the next update.
