-

-
alex (@alexsears97) reported@Roku This new update is TERRIBLE. Half of my apps are gone from my Home Screen and it's such a pain to find them again. Fire whoever thought of this
-
Yehuda @ Y10Tax (@Y10Tax) reported@TCL_USA @Roku @RokuSupport Is it typical that bugs can crawl into your screens? any chance you can help me out here?
-
Rob Ables (@rables73) reported@MLB can you please fix your streaming app for @Roku and Apple TV so they don’t suck? EVERY SINGLE game I watch on ANY of my streaming devices stops at least 3-4 times per game with spinning circle of death. No other apps have buffering problems on my 1GB line and mesh WiFi.
-
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.
-
Tim Wilmes (@bigsilly67) reported@espn @roku why are you both worthless? I'm just trying to login with my provider to watch espn on my roku, and you're not allowing me to enter my provider credentials. So I'll ask again, why are you both worthless?
-
3arnhardt ﻦ (@3arnhardt) reportedI'm hearing @roku is too ****** to handle the 4k that the race was recorded in. Is that the issue?
-
Reality Bites (@realitybites_11) reported@Roku @RokuSupport your product is becoming unusable. Constantly unpairing the remote after exiting an app.
-
SlowdownMemes (@PokeyTexan) reported@YouTube please fix the Jump Forward feature on your @Roku app. I don’t care whose end of the tech it’s on. I pay for three YT Premium, so that my kiddos don’t infect my feed or complain about what each other watch. I’ve told them “ give it a few days to patch it”. It’s been hell
-
Sparky McGraw (@McgrawSparky) reported@Roku No error code, it just has to be manually connected almost all the time whereas the Onn Tv connects automatically each time…. As the @TCL_USA TV should
-
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!
-
Morticia (@Morticia121212) reported@tacooghost @Roku I've seen where others have watched the episode already. I was thinking it was a problem with the subscription through Roku TV that was the problem.
-
Inigo Montoya (@Dukefan11) reported@Roku I'm a minimalist. On the home screen, your recent update added several items such as "the best across your streaming services" row, "jump to" row & an add apps button. The screen now feels very cluttered. Please help me hide these. ChatGPT says it cant be done.
-
Peter Jones (@Peter_B_Jones) reported@Roku after being a long time customer for over 15 years and bought over 15 devices from you, the best you can offer is 30% off when one of your most expensive devices stops working because of a hardware issue?!?! Not to mention terrible customer support!!!
-
**** Dracula (@stilltrynnadie) reportedLow-key hate roku I hit the ok button multiple times nothing but if I so much as accidentally touch the guide button I get my YouTube video sent to the ******* backrooms @Roku fix your **** NOW
-
Missouri_Gamer (@ultramantis7) reported@Roku FoxOne on the Roku Channel does not work; Fox apparently cannot stream the games to Roku. It isn't Roku's fault, but why am I paying $20 a month?
-
Brian Kemm (@BrianKemm) reported@mrhappybw @Roku Boooo. Thanks for the intel. And, well, sigh. If I wanted to go through all the hassle (with no guaranteed fix), I’d just as soon start using a different brand if I have to log into everything again 🤡 These tech companies really are entirely out of their minds
-
Buttery Duck (@Nauseum62) reported@Roku @meetatmidnights Doesn't work. All I get is the options to close or remove.
-
Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reportedSo @Roku just not going to address the issue they cause on the TCL and I assuming other TV’s with that horrible update or fix it? I am tired of having to reset things to get i to recognize the HDMI ports or them not be corrupted every day since.
-
sandiek is in the skiiiieeesssss (@sandiek) reportedhaven't been able to watch @espn on @roku for weeks because the app is effed up and apparently using an outdated login token (have uninstalled and reinstalled already). Fortunately it works on my @madebygoogle gtv chromecast, so we're (mostly) fine.
-
UnfinishedOwl (@UnfinishedOwl) reportedman, @Roku has absolutely destroyed my TV. almost totally unusable
-
HockeyDad2A&Z (@HockeyDad2AandZ) reportedHey @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.
-
Joe Kimray (@JoeKimray) reportedWow - 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…
-
Lee 🇺🇸 (@redneckleeusmc) reported@Roku joins the total enshittification gang with its trash update. User customizations, gone. UI is terrible, everything is high-friction, and there are more ads. This is for a device I pay for. It's hard to name a single thing in tech that hasn't gotten markedly worse in nearly every way the last five years. Windows. Mac. Linux. iOS. Google. Amazon. Netflix.
-
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.
-
Keri Marie (@KeriMarie317366) reported@Chrisg19722015 @Roku It sucks! Don’t fix what’s not broken 😠. I agree 100% Chris!
-
Sparky McGraw (@McgrawSparky) reported@Roku Yea i do that all the time…. It’ll work for 1-5/10 turn ons then back to having to manual connect, or restart
