    Trying to change the batteries in my @Roku remote for the first time. Except there is a lip at the bottom of where the batteries go, I am sure to help prevent them from popping out on accident...BUT HOW THE HELL DO I GET THEM OUT ON PURPOSE.

    This is such an inconvenience especially for the money I paid. I contacted customer service so assistance only to be rerouted to get tech help with a fee. I googled if this was normal and there are SO many complaints about TCL Roku tvs blackscreening!

    @Roku your streaming stick is not working and I can’t find a way to return it. Your support page is asking to speak with someone but the number is not connecting. Not a good support model I see

    @DisneyPlus I'm havig this issue several times now, I't started with @Roku devices and @Roku Tv's at home saying we were not in the same household that I should update my household, so I logged off from all devices, nothing same problem 1/2

    Dear @MLBTV please fix your @Roku app. Every time I try to resume a game the next day from where I turned it off, the broadcast begins where I left off, immediately crashes, and then starts back at the beginning of the game when I restart it.

    @YouTube @RokuSupport @Roku Also when watching YouTube and listening on private listening the controls on the iPhone app don't work either. You can't pause a video replay a video backspace you can't exit nothing you can see your finger moving on the pad but it doesn't do anything. Only w YT

    @hulu_support @Ann_Elyse Not having any issues with Roku Channel, Pluto TV, Peacock, Tubi, freevee, etc. Just checked with a friend who has YouTube TV. No issues there. Might be time to switch.

    [a case of the blog] (@acaseofthetwit) reported

    I 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.

    @james37144 @Roku It's working for a lot of people but as Glenn said on radio and on the Commuity page it still needs polishing but we tried to get it up in time to work out the kinks before the special.

    @Roku FIX your apps already. ViaPlay, Howdy. Hire some good techs & earn your money. Two days now. Shame on you. @RokuSupport & tell your AI bot what go sod yourself means...

    @scast86 @GetflixAU Did they give you a fix or workaround perhaps? Our @Roku just says there's no network whatsoever.

    Anyone else while watching #wrestlemania after a commercial break, it goes back to the beginning of the match that just ended or just a different part in general! watching on @Roku fix this, I'm tired of fast forwarding, then watching another 4-5 mins of ads then back to Mania!

    Hey @DisneyPlus, why are subtitles not working today? First, I tried this week's episode of #OnlyMurders, then I tried the first episode of series 2 of #HighPotential, and neither had any subtitles. I'm in the UK and using a @Roku stick to stream. #Accessibility

    @MSNOWNews your channel on @Roku has not worked in two weeks. Every other channel works fine. It’s you. Maybe you can fix that ****?

    @Roku WHY isn't TBS channel updating it's episodes on Big Bang Theory? It says expired TODAY IT said that yesterday and still hasn't changed episodes! TBS people are asleep or not paying attention? 🙄 Please fix this!

    @DIRECTV & @Roku count your days! Why would you allow a customer to sign up via Roku and thru your services for the same exact product. Why tf would i sign up for the same sorry *** service twice! & for @Roku not to issue refunds after I’ve been charged twice is crazy

    @Roku I was going to join today but your app doesn’t say much. Yiu cannot chat because of bats in Apple phones. Does it work on Verizon ? I have no idea what a subscription is or how much it is. Get a new a manager. I’ll find something else I guess.

    Finally watching @this_is_acw After Shock. Starting from beginning. Had issues with devices so eventually settled in on canceling the subscription through @Roku and then subscribing to @Triller_TV+ itself and hopefully this will let me watch it on 2 tvs.

    @Roku I brought a brand new Roku TV on 07/05/24, now it does not work. It has a black screen. I called Roku and did all the troubleshooting, and they said the hardware is dead. I think they should replace their defective product. Yet it says it should last 5 years minimum.

  • chinedu_10
    chinedu🦀 (@chinedu_10) reported

    @Roku is there a reason why your devices stopped connecting to WIFI? And is this a regional issue? I could connect to the Hotspot on my iPhone. But I can’t connect WIFI to the device. I’ve tried multiple WIFI from different ISPs.

  • Witchmaster
    Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported

    @Roku @caseyrosewilson Latest update on Roku has brought on tons of issues. Can't remove finished listings from continue watching, completing episodes goes on to random programs, etc. And periodically it just resets itself. How about rolling back to stability?

    Watermelon Sugar (Bisan's version) (@HippieChic82) reported

    Even after buying a brand new HDMI wire I am still getting the ************* error code PLYB_122. A ******* 8k capable wire. What in the ******* hell @Verizon or @roku??

  • Skippyqsb
    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

    @walt_stachura @slinganswers Same. Later in the evening I got: "I was able to confirm with our team that this is a known issue with Roku devices. Our Engineers are working on getting it resolved as soon as possible. We appreciate your patience, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused."

    @hbomax @HBO please fix your @Roku app. I shouldn’t have to hunt for the show I’m trying to finish binging! Also “continue watching” doesn’t need to feed me the previous episode that I just finished #bemorelikenetflix
