Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JohnCaryBG John Cary (@JohnCaryBG) reported

    @btvipstatus On Roku app, I was logged out. When I entered my credentials, it said “email/password combination not found”. Same issue as a couple of months ago.

  • BloggingBanshee Molly Henery (@BloggingBanshee) reported

    Gah I still can’t get shudder to work for me!! Second day in a row. It’s works on my phone but not through my Roku.

  • indiananathan Nathan (@indiananathan) reported

    Unless it's @Roku 's fault. Either way. The two of you need to work together and figure this out. It's boring watching the news all day. I need music.

  • MaggieVanWinkle Maggie Kuenzi (@MaggieVanWinkle) reported

    @AmazonHelp I haven’t but this has been really frustrating and my fire stick is basically unusable it’s so slow so I’m buying a @Roku thanks

  • indiananathan Nathan (@indiananathan) reported

    HEY @accuradio - put your app back on Roku. It's driving me nuts not being able to listen to music at work during the day. This is stupid.

  • tana_despotovic Tana Despotovic, MPH (@tana_despotovic) reported

    @discoveryplus won’t work on the @Roku tv. It just freezes & then kicks me out. This has been happening for over a week.

  • rainydaysATL rainy a goofball (@rainydaysATL) reported

    Crunchyroll on roku sucks so much ***. It is impossible to watch anything due to video freezing. Netflix and YouTube work just fine

  • LisaBeesa Lisa Trifone (@LisaBeesa) reported

    Apparently old seasons of GBBO vanished off Netflix recently? Two things: 1. Streaming rights expire, content moves platforms. It’s all (mostly!) licensing deals, nothing is forever. 2. Apparently they’re all streaming on Roku now, if you really need a fix (see: @JustWatch)

  • Cj_TheInnovator ℭ𝔧  (@Cj_TheInnovator) reported

    @hulu_support how do you fix the “P-Dev320” error code?? Been having this for the longest only happens to my roku. Not the rest of my household.

  • Nathanp72914687 Nathan p (@Nathanp72914687) reported

    @chill13ave @Roku Nothing but problems with Roku

  • COsportstakes Chris (@COsportstakes) reported

    Trying to watch Rings of Power but it keeps crashing my prime app on Roku and it buffers every few seconds on my iPad. Anyone else have these issues?

  • gadget_merv Merv (@gadget_merv) reported

    @hulu_support ever since the android app update on 9/7, playback skips/hiccups every 2 seconds and playback is borderline unwatchable. I've seen multiple posts about this as well. This is only happening on my android devices, my Roku is not affected. Please fix soon! thanks

  • unlucky17een K. (@unlucky17een) reported

    @icegottti @hotgirlj__ Roku tv should work

  • OrangeRemembers The Orange Remembers (@OrangeRemembers) reported

    @COsportstakes It puts an error screen on my roku when I try to fast forward or skip the intro/recap.

  • sputnik2720 Neo Jen. ✨️ (@sputnik2720) reported

    The very next encounter was a Geodude UGH. 😭 Oh well, I'll make this work. Roku and Violet dream team.

  • CtbNick CTB Nick (@CtbNick) reported

    Mf Gon disconnect from the wifi and Ian got no ****** remote so the app not gon work…I GOT THE ONLY ROKU TV IN THIS MF

  • Simply_Rabbi ЯΛBBI🇺🇦PΣЯFΣᄃƬΣD (@Simply_Rabbi) reported

    @ItsBobbySocks @AscendantNomad I notice that when I watch on YouTube, live streams have trouble opening. That being said, YouTube has a ROKU app, and Twitch got rid of theirs.

  • NOWHelpTeam NOW Help Team (@NOWHelpTeam) reported

    @su_harrison Hi Susan, there we're a few issues with the app recently and a fix is being worked on for Roku devices. Sorry about the inconvenience - TD

  • VikiStatus Viki Status (@VikiStatus) reported

    @JonesRossie418 @Roku We're really sorry to read this! Could you please try reinstalling your Viki app before trying again? If you still face issues thereafter, please send us a DM with your device details and Viki username. Thank you!

  • COsportstakes Chris (@COsportstakes) reported

    @OrangeRemembers I guess it’s too high quality of video for a Roku to handle? Lol I’m casting it from my iPhone to the Roku now and it’s working.

  • IknowsBestYah WhateverBitch 🏳️‍🌈♌🧘🏾‍♀️ (@IknowsBestYah) reported

    I’m ****** I don’t have a laptop charger my ******* Roku remote won’t work fuckkkkkkkkkkk 😩😩

  • bowlly RAFAEL Reyes (@bowlly) reported

    @CBSSports I keep getting a error signal for cbs on my roku device Please fix so I can watch the football game

  • Takeshimas1122 FoefoeHamham (@Takeshimas1122) reported

    @PointCrow Pretty sure I still can’t use twitch on a TV. I can only do it on pc or mobile. Give me the ability to watch on couch platforms and I’ll be around more. Like lemme use it on a roku or something it’s not that hard YouTube does it no problem.

  • Nathanp72914687 Nathan p (@Nathanp72914687) reported

    @Roku Roku is absolute trash. Nothing but technical problems with your service. I recommend nobody use Roku.

  • AltruisTom Altruistic Tom (@AltruisTom) reported

    @babygirl_bones I know it depends on how you get there. Roku vs Amazon vs PC vs mobile. It is frustrating they dont all work the same. My TV saves Star Trek in my recent searches, so thats a 'workaround' of sorts.

  • GeorgiaDeeLight Dee wants you surrounded by love. (She/Her) (@GeorgiaDeeLight) reported

    @ADMoseleyRdWrtr I do, but they're stuck on the wrong language on Amazon and I think my Roku is out of date and I can't find a setting to fix it. New one coming tomorrow will hopefully fix it.

  • AmazonHelp Amazon Help (@AmazonHelp) reported

    @Corey74566419 Hi! Sorry for the trouble you're having using the Prime Video channel on your Roku device. To try to resolve this issue, please remove and add the channel again on your device. To remove the Prime Video channel from your Roku device: 1/3

  • Kitty__Pick kat (@Kitty__Pick) reported

    somehow rolled on my roku remote & on plutotv in my sleep n woke up to newtons cradle loudly clicking in a scene from one of the INSIDIOUS movies HELP

  • prawnination ❤🧡💛 prawninator 💚💙💜 (@prawnination) reported

    Looks like @sparklightcares internet service is down, and I'm not an isolated case. But let's be real; it's been having issues for weeks/months now. Both my @Roku and @alexa99 devices were having connectivity issues out of the blue, too. Time to switch ISPs, maybe. 😑

  • stacymcgrory Stacy (@stacymcgrory) reported

    @cjdcat @HBOMaxHelp This isn’t a Roku issue as it’s happening on our smart tv as well.
