Roku Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SGN_Derek Some GHOUL Named Derek (@SGN_Derek) reported

    @eeadams @hulu_support Take your Roku and stream from your mobile to the Roku. I THINK that would work. Is it a pain in the ***? Yes. Should Hulu be more like YouTube TV with that freedom? Absolutely

  • CM_Febby 𝔐𝔯. 𝔉𝔞𝔟𝔦𝔞𝔫 ℨ.✶✶✶✶ (@CM_Febby) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @CherilynSarki10 @hbomax @Roku I got it to work. Log off, uninstall app, restart Roku, add app and log in.

  • flint_matthews Flint Matthews (@flint_matthews) reported

    @GSNeverMind Picture blurry at times, signal drops at times, poor audio quality. Like the techs are in training. Can't figure out how to sync the @GSSportsNetwork with Roku.

  • ssmith556 Esther Erin Smith (@ssmith556) reported

    @hulu_support CBS is not working in my area - I have tried on every smart TV, ROKU, my IPad, Fire Stick etc, our wifi is powerful, we have a smart home also our TV’s are plugged into ethernet (which is on) zip code 23663. What is going on this has been since Wednesday.

  • franklinlester Franklin Lester (@franklinlester) reported

    one of these days I'll get around to switching out my broken HDMI Switch. Haven't used my PS4, Roku, Pi or SNES Classic in several months. The HDMI Switch is stuck on input 2 and won't switch out from it, even manually hitting the button doesn't do anything.

  • ThisManTweets Gary (@ThisManTweets) reported

    @RSBNetwork Hey guys watching you on Roku for several hours now. Within the last 5 minutes had two interruptions of your video. It never fails, when game time approaches you folks have issues!

  • Datboiijosh21 Jay Mo🇨🇴⚾️🐢 (@Datboiijosh21) reported

    @melichaaas Vizio for good quality Roku for cheap

  • MetcalfeCT Chris Metcalfe (@MetcalfeCT) reported

    @JenniferMerwitz @foxsportshelp Same issue. Had to plug in a roku. Will also work on xbox. Last resort is tablet or phone. Absurd situation.

  • divinia1111 Denise Ferguson (@divinia1111) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Just wanted to let you know I have never had an issue with streaming HBO MAX. Never! I stream through Roku.

  • bwmadsen Brian Madsen (@bwmadsen) reported

    @MyHockeyTV could you fix the Roku app so you can actually watch the feed before the puck drops?

  • ghostof_danku Dan (@ghostof_danku) reported

    @DawnMarieSaid I tried to get it to work on my Roku Rumble app but it was asking to sign in

  • Jonniey_Webster Jonniey Webster (@Jonniey_Webster) reported

    @shipwreckedcrew I have had with older Roku built into the TV devices. All I had to do was swap out to an external Roku device and most my issues left.

  • BayerJeff Jeff Bayer (@BayerJeff) reported

    I hate when my Apple remote won’t control the Roku, but then I realize that isn’t the problem.

  • ProgressiveFist Michael (@ProgressiveFist) reported

    @slinganswers Hi, my sling tv app on my Roku will not load in my family room but will load in my bedroom. Please help.

  • kimcav21 @KPC (@kimcav21) reported

    @Ask_Spectrum Cannot get the app to work on my roku tv or on the phone, is there an issue with those?

  • djmainecourse DJ Mainecourse (@djmainecourse) reported from Perry Hall, Maryland

    @FOXSports i paid for the #FuryVsWilder3 fight on my @Roku tv and its not working ... when i try to watch live the only option it gives me is to BUY NOW but i already purchased and the live chat i jad with a Fox sports rep resulted to nothing

  • momemeto Bruh Momemeto (@momemeto) reported

    Roku TVs are legit the worst ******* TVs ever

  • RussHeitmann Russell Heitmann (@RussHeitmann) reported

    @TeamYouTube Hello! Our Sharp Roku smart TV is no longer opening YouTube TV saying it won't reinstall from the server. I know there are some issues with Roku and YouTube TV but wasn't sure if there was a new issue here that we weren't aware of. Let me know thanks!

  • JCBarca11 🇺🇸 JCBarca11 🇺🇸 (@JCBarca11) reported

    @shipwreckedcrew Not sure what streaming device you use (or it’s age) but I had similar problems until I upgraded Roku player. Newer streaming speeds/packets can overwhelm memory/processing of “older” devices.

  • astrokeat Keaton Bell (@astrokeat) reported

    Practically every movie I watch on @hbomax on my Roku TV freezes halfway through, then crashes the whole TV system. I understand it to be a known issue that has not been fixed for many months.

  • JSAllman1 Jeremy Allman (@JSAllman1) reported

    @Youtubetv Any update on when your going to figure out how to work reliably on Roku devices with the native channel, its been months and getting a bit old.

  • warmachine31480 Mark (@warmachine31480) reported from Bryan, Texas

    @paramountplus can someone help me to unsubscribe? I have tried on the website, iOS app, and Roku. Nothing works. Please help.

  • heatherdille Heather Dille (@heatherdille) reported from Dargin, Alabama

    @Roku @YouTube what is up with the YouTube app not working on Roku? This is day #2. Reported it numerous times on Roku yesterday. I have things to watch that I don’t want to watch on my phone. Please help!! And yes, already deleted and readded the app and it still doesn’t work.

  • lasertag19 KarenMcKarenpants (@lasertag19) reported

    @roku why aren’t you addressing the problem with none of your channels loading? Connection is fine, but YouTubeTV, YouTube, Hulu… all the apps fail to load. When will you fix this?

  • royjonestheking royjonestheking (@royjonestheking) reported

    @steveirwinstan @PBConFOX @FOXSports I have same issue stream is not working on roku app

  • charlesgillogly Charles Gillogly (@charlesgillogly) reported from Zanesville, Ohio

    Now onto NBC. **** the NBC Sports app on Roku. Either keep me ******* logged in OR change your ******* sign-in to authorize by checking in like other apps and not having to go to a ******* computer to sign in. It's ******* **** UX.

  • TheBestCaptainK Kevin Hutcheson (@TheBestCaptainK) reported

    I love Smart TVs. Out of nowhere, it started having (apparently) network issues, that no other device in the apartment is having. Roku's help department is...not great. Fixed it this morning, now it's broke again.

  • XLNC_JakeKelton XLNC Jake Kelton (@XLNC_JakeKelton) reported

    Roku or Firestick? Both have good and terrible reviews. Anyone use either of these? Just want something I can stream from my phone to my TV with. 🤔❓❓❓

  • sxvxnnxh_diorr savannah (@sxvxnnxh_diorr) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp me and my friend have both been having an issue with our hbo max. we open the app on roku tv and all the titles come up but when we try and ply something it asks us to chose a plan or restore purchases, when you click restore purchases it also says unable to restore.

  • ben_tatchell Ben Tatchell (@ben_tatchell) reported

    @Johns_Analytics @dickosmailbag Spot on I have Sony’s and they are unusable without have Roku or Apple TV plugged in.
