    @RokuSupport I have had my ROKU Stick for two years.  I've never had any problem with connection to WI-FI or internet.  SUDDENLY I started having problem with wifi connection. I've done everything (several times) it only connect when it is next to to the router.

    are you still watching ______________? the worst thing when u have a roku remote. them ******* always missin.

  • CarterKo24 Carter (@CarterKo24) reported

    On Privacy Regulation - Privacy regulation is not a big headwind because Roku is positioned as a platform to leverage their own data to help advertise reach Roku users. Advertisers buy directly from Roku as opposed to a third party.

  • EarthChanges365 Earth Changes 365 (@EarthChanges365) reported

    @Roku Hollywood still has yet to recreate a tornado movie with the quality of twister. It's a one of a kind

  • Steve_Nitz Steve Nitz (@Steve_Nitz) reported

    @TeamYouTube It's on a Roku device - so I can't uninstall and install the app again due to your pissing match with Roku. It's a playback error. I'm able to watch on my computer but not Roku.

  • realkpfleming Out for what do you have that gun? (@realkpfleming) reported

    @askparamount It appears that your Roku app is not alone; most of the non-premium streaming service apps only provide stereo audio, and not Dolby AC3 or anything better. This is a bit of a downgrade from the same content delivered over cable or satellite, but it's not terrible.

  • _BlakeSmith_ Blake Smith (@_BlakeSmith_) reported

    @annaclick22 My apple tv is always WAY behind and I had the same problem with a roku before that. Sometimes I can pull up the same game on my laptop and the web browser stream will be a full batter ahead of the apple tv stream.

  • saalon Eric Sipple (@saalon) reported

    @A_B_Allen I haven’t noticed any noticeable compression problems on the Roku, but I say that A) not having used the Xbox app for comparison and B) being an absolutely **** source for noticing this reliably. Might be worth trying though.

  • Scruffmeister1 Scruffmeister (@Scruffmeister1) reported

    @YouTube please fix the issue with the Roku app. It won't let me access my playlists,history etc. I'm signed in via my google account. I'm not the only one having issues. Please fix.

  • literaturedevil S. A. Rivera (@literaturedevil) reported

    @__RiseAgain__ That would be acceptable if the main series hadn't made a point about each Avatar needing to learn the elements. That was the main problem for Aang throughout the series. Even Roku spent years having to control them. Looks like Korra was born bending most of them.

  • JoeyKoh_ Joey Koh (@JoeyKoh_) reported

    Thoughts: Companies flock to Roku as they can get: - higher ROI on ad spend - higher 1st party data quality (through Nielsen 1 enabling cross-platform measurement) - cross-platform ad targeting (boomers & milllenials alike) - scale of customers than anywhere else

  • Isaiah__h Isaiah 👁‍🗨 (@Isaiah__h) reported

    For the love of everything fix the Roku app omg @BallySports

  • thefabfreak Oliver 🙂 (@thefabfreak) reported

    i have never felt so strongly about never buying something from a company again, lmao. i am never buying anything from TLC or Roku anymore because of how terrible my experience with this TV has been. i am also never connecting a TV to the internet again either

  • invisibIestrng jen (@invisibIestrng) reported

    @hulu can y’all fix your roku app i’m trying to watch er this is so rude

  • thejovians 🇨🇴 Dan (@thejovians) reported

    How does my insignia roku tv from 6 years ago still work better than my newer Samsung smart TV

  • LukeTyson Luke Tyson (@LukeTyson) reported

    @infuse I’m having an issue with Airplay. It started on the last version 6 update and has continued with 7. I’m using airplay to a Roku ultra. Everything worked flawlessly before, but now all I get is a black screen with a loading symbol. Tried turning off Dolby but still nothing.

  • thefabfreak Oliver 🙂 (@thefabfreak) reported

    hello to all my followers. i have a message: if you ever want to buy a TCL Roku TV, don't, because they break features with system updates and then take months to fix them, if ever. or if you do: do not connect it to the internet. you can't roll back to earlier system software.

  • OneAtheistJew Queen Atheist of Jewville (@OneAtheistJew) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp the app keeps glitching on my Roku. Going back a page will sometimes land me back on the Roku home and I had to go back in 4x to get Labryinth to play b/c it froze and kept sending me back to the Roku Home page. What's up with the tech issues?

  • realklindberg Karl Lindberg (@realklindberg) reported

    Why does the @MLBTV app not work on my @amazonfiretv but it works perfectly on my Roku and iOS? The fire tv app always “fails to login” even though the other versions work smoothly.

  • acoastarian mananasi 🇰🇪 (@acoastarian) reported

    I am sure the problem is from the Roku device. There’s nothing I can do about it. I was so happy using Roku but not anymore. Does that mean Roku devices only work for maximum two years?

  • eadens Adam Eadens (@eadens) reported

    @disneyplus What's up with your service on Roku? Can't watch a family movie on Mother's Day and still not working today.

  • Sheupe Max Wyner (@Sheupe) reported

    @PeacockTVCare The subtitles don’t work half of the time on your Roku app

  • ReckLISS26 𝙎𝒊́𝙀𝙨𝙌𝙪𝒆́¿ (@ReckLISS26) reported

    @hulu_support I am using Roku devices. Doesn't matter what I use or what I watch, the volume is extremely low. This seems to be a known issue that's been around for a long time according to the Hulu community board

  • mattjrodgers matty boy (@mattjrodgers) reported

    @AWDMANOUT had that exact issue on my roku. don’t know why that other dude is coming for your so hard. great show. just wish i wasn’t going from 20 to 100 between dialogue and action scenes

  • TacoChamp25 Drew Harper (@TacoChamp25) reported

    @RokuSupport @COLEplusTEN Even if he gives you more details you will still give him the run around. I am going on 2 weeks+ with issues. Your email team sucks. They never get back to me and wanted me to pay to ship back a defective item. Never recommending Roku to anyone.

  • AndrewChristen3 Jethro McSheepherder (@AndrewChristen3) reported

    @RokuSupport my Roku tv can’t stay connected to the internet. Worst product a choice for streaming I could have made

  • davesacher Dave Sacher (@davesacher) reported

    Just tried to pause a Netflix movie, on Roku, using the Dish remote. Didn’t work. Now I am beginning to understand why my wife gets so frustrated with technology.
