-
Ken Kallembach (@imken24) reported@Roku I will NOT send a DM so you can ignore me there. Solve the problem here in public so anyone with the same issue can find a solution.
-
Matthew Smith (@MattSmithFOX13) reported@KirkYuhnke @MatthewKeysLive @Roku Our dumb TV is 10+ years old — biggest issue we’ve ever had: a volume button is a little touchy. We’ve swapped out smart tech multiple times, always on sale. Likely saved us a crazy amount of $$$ in a decade-plus.
-
RaiderNeil (@Rdrneil) reported@Roku i've never had a problem with roku, had to reverse a Cable one time and that was it, and I love the new voice remotes that are rechargeable, only issue I've had is with Disney not being able to click on it and it comes on says can't login from your area error 43 error 83
-
phshbone (@phshbone) reported@Roku new layout is awful. Switching back to just individual apps on my smart tv
-
Sarah Young (@Sarah_young5314) reported@Roku, I’m not happy. We have a ONN Roku TV. We have an antenna. Until today, I could watch local channels. Now I can’t. I followed all the steps to fix this. Every one. Then I hoped onto chat and had to talk to two different reps, neither of which fixed the issue. One said (1)

FrancisCOM. (@fmarqueze) reported@roku now it turns out that if I don't have internet I can't watch broadcast TV. What a terrible system, I'll never buy a TV with Roku again.
-
Keny2 (@yas6444) reported@Roku POOR execution! great idea. I have many roku sound bars thinking they had all I want - WRONG! They all, within 9 months, have problems with: pairing to TVs, won't turn on TV or Roku box, sound crackles, Batteries drain FAST, etc. AND NO CUSTOMER SERVICE reply! don't buy...
-
Yaaarrittzzza☀️ (@MaleniYaritza) reportedAnyone having issues with @Roku 😭
-
Rikki Ratliff (@rikkiratliff) reported@MeetYouAtMoes @theblaze @Roku I don't work at Blaze but Glenn has had Internet connection issues from FL to Dallas today.
-
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!
-
Heather D. ♿ (@EarperMarine) reported@zfatcat2 @Roku I have seen other people mention issues with captions. It's only happening when using Roku and it's the same across my various Roku apps. 🙃
-
Brian Richards 🕔 (@CptCracker) reported@thatoneguychaz @FOXSoccer @Roku Fox One is a hot mess. They seem to have blown it on capacity planning. A Grok survey of complaints confirms the issues are multi platform. Roku has a 100 million user base so they are going to get mentioned more than others, but it's cross platform. If there's something roku can do to help fix thst would be great though. The games on Fox over the air have worked just fine. This is when having a $40 Walmart antenna or even better a Tablo antenna tuner/dvr is helpful. The problem is they seem to have 37 games scheduled for streaming only.

Skippy QSB (@Skippyqsb) reported. @Roku Why did you mess up the main menu? Now I've got a bunch of stuff, I don't want, that I have to scroll through to get to my apps, and I can't remove or move them. Also the app icons are smaller? Seriously? Fix this, please, and stop messing with our menus. #Roku
-
Skippy QSB (@Skippyqsb) reported. @CBSNews what's going on with the CBS News app on @Roku . Only a few videos in the main area, Sunday Morning area has no videos, lastest eps of 48 HRS and 60 Minutes not loaded. Please fix. #CBSNews #ROKU
-
Sydney 👑 (@LoveMyFFAJacket) reported@Roku How do we turn this **** off? It doesn’t work for people who use inputs just as much as streaming. I want to sort my Home Screen how I want it. Ironically how my parents Samsung TV does.
-
Pencil Army (@pencil_army) reportedHey, @Roku, how many times do I have to hide "Soccer Zone" from my Home Screen before it actually stays hidden? Or is this some new feature where I will have to continue to keep doing every day? Would be nice if you could get the Hide function to work.
-
Alex (@undeadunion78) reported@Roku This is awful. Please let me revert back to the old home screen. I've praised my Roku tv and from here on out no more praise will be had.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Brent Stewart (@BrentStewart17) reported@Roku where are you with fixing the issues with @MLBTV? I can’t even watch the @cubs game tonight.
-
Eff-the-left (@norcal06warrior) reported@Roku All other steaming apps work fine, it's only happening with Netflix
-
Ryan Paredez (@RyanParedez) reported@foxone @Roku the foxone app runs bad on the roku. Constant errors. Error:PL--28
-
Connor Smith (@CK_Smitty) reported@foxone App isn’t working on @Roku. Turns on for 5 mins then goes back to Home Screen. Help.

Riot is Prideful θ∆🐺 | DNF -16 (@Mx_Error) reportedHELLO CAN YOUTUBE ON THE ROKU NOT FUXKING CRASH @Roku @YouTube whixh one of ur faults is this because it happens all the time
-
[a case of the blog] (@acaseofthetwit) reportedI normally love my @Roku — I have one for each TV! — but my living room one has been a real issue. The remote randomly stopped working and the device itself now reboots itself multiple times a day (often in the middle of viewing something). Very annoying.
-
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.
-
Dr. GigaDad, PharmD, BCPS, BCEMP (@Shayne_McKee_) reported@enhanced_games @Roku @ResortsWorldLV Crazy that it took you until now to announce where you’ll be hosting the games. Terrible marketing.
-
D.A.R.E Capo (@YungYinkv) reportedHey @Roku you may want to fix this. Howdy showing the wrong movie 😡
-
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

Osondu Esonwune (@OsonduEsonwune) reported@Roku @norcal06warrior Roku I’m having the same issue on the Netflix app on my Roku tv
