    @Roku please bring back the other Home Screen. This new one is awful. Thanks

    @Roku ROKU got rid of their community support forum. Their TVs are now like the rest. When buying my next one, it will be which one has my apps and which one has the best price and picture quality. The support forum was a huge plus. Goodbye Roku.

    @Roku fix everything about the new OS! I mean why is the only option on quick access to remove something!? Why can't they be moved? What the heck!?

    @Roku when I sign in , you don't send the code. When I tell your crappy ai I want an advisor it sends me back to the sign in. When your customer doesn't want to speak with a F'ing Ai listen to them.

    So @Roku just not going to address the issue they cause on the TCL and I assuming other TV’s with that horrible update or fix it? I am tired of having to reset things to get i to recognize the HDMI ports or them not be corrupted every day since.

    @espn @roku why are you both worthless? I'm just trying to login with my provider to watch espn on my roku, and you're not allowing me to enter my provider credentials. So I'll ask again, why are you both worthless?

    @ThePriorityPod @Roku I can view my ROKU camera live but the events give errors and won't show In other apps, after a few hours it goes back to the home screen. They really screwed up all the devices apparently

    So I pay for a subscription on @Roku payment goes through they get the money. Subscription does not work. @Roku is good at taking the money but… that’s where their part ends taking the $$. **** doesn’t work and zero real support. You ******* suck and I’m going back to cable.

    @Roku Problems since the update: 1. Sound goes away for DVD player. 2. Sometimes DVD player will no longer play to TV. Restarting fixed it temporarily - until today. 3. Spontaneous resolution changes after a sleep timer is used. 4. Trouble communicating with cable box.

    @Roku You should be concentrating on making your site work. The app doesn't work & your website doesn't work either

    @Morticia121212 @Roku The Roku sub shouldn't matter. Seems like an issue on their side.

    Anyone else having an issue with their @TheCW on @Roku ??? It keeps crashing for me

  • MatthewKeysLive
    Matthew Keys (@MatthewKeysLive) reported

    @Roku UPDATE: I was proven wrong! The Roku TV in question suffered from a software bug, one that the company is aware of and is in the process of fixing. A small number of TVs experienced the glitch, and the company is working to address it. Roku's terrific customer support restored my faith in the company, and I'm so glad we don't have to replace this TV!

    @Roku It’s terrible for people with vision issues. The icons are too small. It was better the way it was with the large icons

  • Daywalker249

    Hey, @Roku your streaming is not working. Playback error keeps showing up.

  • rables73
    Rob Ables (@rables73) reported

    @Roku Hi @Roku thanks but as I stated in the original post, it does it on all 4 of my Roku devices, so it is not a restart issue. Also, it is only the @MLB app. None of my other apps have this issue or other buffering. The MLB app does it multiple times per game and gets stuck.

    Don't know whether it's my @TCL_USA @Roku TV or my @dish Hopper 3, but Lordy, I have to do a hard reboot on them nearly everyday to get them to work together.

    Taking out the remainder of my Amazon Fire Cube controllers @amazon I have 3 and I thought they would all work well. Tried one Roku Stick and it is a much better experience. Too much advertising and useless stuff on Fire Cube plus it never really worked that well with You Tube TV. @Roku

    @Roku tv is by far the WORST! They are unstable and CANNOT manage their Products...I want my money back on this JUNK!!! (NOTE to self: Buy ANY product other than ROKU)

  • VakomSunrunner
    Vakom Sunrunner (@VakomSunrunner) reported

    @Roku @RokuSupport Couldn't figure out where to report this but the episode order for The Transformers (1984) series is massively out of order. Not only are episodes not in the official chronological order, you've got season 2 episodes in season 1 and such. Please fix this.

  • Peter_B_Jones
    Peter Jones (@Peter_B_Jones) reported

    @roku so you sell me on your wireless surround sound then discontinue the products that work with it so that when one dies I can't even use a measly discount code on your website to replace the device! Garbage!

  • realQuendrith
    @Quendrith (@realQuendrith) reported

    @ParisHilton @Roku @DEADLINE Typos above, sorry, long day working… back channel reporting was the chase and follow type (refused that line of work, also turned down National Enquirer ps.) — point being, it was hellish trying to stay true to journalism while being groomed and encouraged to write trash then.

  • Gundament
    Kris G. (@Gundament) reported

    @Roku Hey can you guys fix a bug on your new Home Screen? When you click on the inputs from the home screen shortcuts, we are getting a green and blue lines all over the screen. But when we click the Inputs from the "Input List" tab, they work fine. Please fix in the next update.

    @RaceCanada_ca @TSN_Sports @Roku (realistically, I'm guessing there was some kind of error and one that was actually expertly quickly fixed... but still, that damn near made my heart stop)
