-
✨imtamikalee ©™ (@imtamikalee) reportedThis is such an inconvenience especially for the money I paid. I contacted customer service so assistance only to be rerouted to get tech help with a fee. I googled if this was normal and there are SO many complaints about TCL Roku tvs blackscreening!
-

-
B (@shortbumble22) reportedTrying to change the batteries in my @Roku remote for the first time. Except there is a lip at the bottom of where the batteries go, I am sure to help prevent them from popping out on accident...BUT HOW THE HELL DO I GET THEM OUT ON PURPOSE.
-
Jason Burns (@jasonburns76) reported@DisneyPlusUK hi there, is there still a problem with your systems? I tried for 4 hours to cancel my subscription and was sent in circles by @Roku and Disney. Eventually a member of staff on your online chat told me to try later because he couldn't get into the system.
-
Rikki Ratliff (@rikkiratliff) reported@james37144 @Roku It's working for a lot of people but as Glenn said on radio and on the Commuity page it still needs polishing but we tried to get it up in time to work out the kinks before the special.
-
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.
-
Adam Lash (@newfoundmass) reportedThe Shudder Roku app was the worst app I'd ever used until I used the Shudder Fire TV app.
-
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.
-
Salt Bae of the ******* (@thisiskenzo_) reportedAight im tired of tweeting about this. @Crunchyroll @Roku YALL HAVE ONE WEEK TO FIX THIS ROKU APP BEFORE I PERMANENTLY END MY SUBSCRIPTION
-
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.
-
Robby Thomas (@RobbyThomas2525) reportediphone computer even my roku streambar just the streaming sticks is having this problem and the version i'm on for both my rokus are 15.1.4 @Roku @RokuSupport
-
New Village Video (@NewVillageVideo) reportedDoes anyone know someone with experience building a Roku app? I find a bunch of people who are down for the work until they find out it's for a rental app and not AVOD. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!
-
Mark Tapanes (@MarkTapanes) reported@RokuSupport @Roku I’ve emailed 5x on case 00135722 and then yesterday I got an email asking if I still need help. Still need help- thanks!
-
Lmn (@lmn071966) reported@Roku Please fix the live tv issues
-
A Shubert (@ashubert) reported@Ask_Spectrum is there any plan to fix the "last channel" function on app for @Roku using the RW button. Functioned for years & it just stopped. Every Roku I have no longer has this function. It's really annoying to not be able toggle back/forward. V15.2 B:0
-
@tonywhaley@mastodon.world (@tonywhaley) reported@tagesschau Please fix the Tagesschau Roku app in the US! Viewers can't watch Tagesschau in the US. I've tried calling NDR in Hamburg to fix the problem, but they couldn't help.
-
Ben (@TableTopLiberty) reported@DIRECTV I did the trial and I have some feedback on what would win me (and I assume others) over from @YouTubeTV. I use @Roku and the left and right buttons for changing channels instead of rewind and fast forward is the worst. Also allowing 3 streams outside but only 2 from TVs is dumb.
-
Tells, MBA (@tdotcade) reported@Roku Disney Plus isn’t working on my Roku Ultra. Hasn’t been for over a week. Fix this.
-
Philip Logan (@philip_logan) reported@MsSariBrooke @Roku I can’t work out how to watch it here in the UK 😩
-
RoughTradeRadio (@RoughTradeRadio) reported@walt_stachura Same. Later in the evening I got: "I was able to confirm with our team that this is a known issue with Roku devices. Our Engineers are working on getting it resolved as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused."
-
Bob S. (@_Bob_S) reported@Hisense_USA Installed @Roku app to @GoogleTV U7 and when I record to existing Tablo drive, Tablo error = "CANNOT RECORD, DRIVE IS FULL". Had to uninstall #ROKU app and power all off, on to fix. Tv confused.
-
Joe McIlvain (@mac_attack54) reported@Roku I’ve seen dollar stores in poor areas with higher quality product than you
-
Rocío (@Gotitadeamor) reportedI don't know why @MLB gave @PIX11News any games when they don't have the infrastructure to actually allow people to watch the game on a TV with a fire cube, Roku etc. Their rinky **** website plus the stupid web browsers on the TV and the fire cube don't work. Let SNY carry it!
-
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.
-
𝕯𝖆𝖑𝖙𝖔𝖓 {ł₮'₴ ₵Ⱨ₳Ø₴; 𝕓𝕖 𝕜𝕚𝕟𝕕} (@daltagnan_) reported@TCL_Global @PlayStation Turns out it was @Roku's new screen Trial. If this issue happens to you, go into TV Settings > Home Screen and disable the Screen Trial that is listed in there. Fix my issue right away.
-
PureBlood86 (@MAGAPureblood86) reported@Roku WTF?! Remote control batteries go dead every 2 weeks. Can we fix this? I've never seen anything like this in my life. Multiply this times 4 ROKU tvs in the house. Getting ridiculous. Is Amazone Fire any better? anybody chime in. Thx,
-
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)
