Roku Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BOOBSPACE girl with the most cake (@BOOBSPACE) reported

    @hulu_support help me Hulu! Using Roku and my normally normal Hulu app won't open. It's saying network issues, but all other apps working just fine.

  • dmestillings dawn stillings (@dmestillings) reported

    @TeamYouTube too late, uninstalled youtubetv on roku trying to fix error, you should have pushed messages to users in advance of this fiasco!

  • OShowKCJared Jared (@OShowKCJared) reported

    @CoxHelp My roku is hardwired. Which is where I was having the trouble off and on all week.

  • bcarosone Brian Carosone (@bcarosone) reported

    @Roku How about an update on when we can run @YouTubeTV again? This is crazy. Plus the fact that one Roku device “Reloaded” YTTV with no issues, minutes after the other Roku device in other room would not. #poorcustomerservice #answers #fail

  • fmfagan CAPT Matthew Fagan (@fmfagan) reported

    @amayajsmith Well I haven’t had H&I since losing my Locast. Unfortunately H&I doesn’t stream so no help on RoKu. I do have one though. I’ve just been streaming the episodes via my Paramount+ account. You can always tweet with us on #AllStarTrek though.

  • TeamYouTube TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) reported

    @mooretw33 If you've already uninstalled the YouTube TV app, it'll no longer be available to download on your Roku device. But, you can still access YT TV by opening the main YT app > select the "Go to YouTube TV '', once this issue is fixed. For now, we appreciate your patience on this.

  • JohnRoastBee Fromunda Cheese (@JohnRoastBee) reported

    @hbomax Why does your app constantly crash on Roku??? And yes my software is up to date. Why should I pay if your service doesn’t work??? Horrible.

  • Michael91924254 Michael Maddux (@Michael91924254) reported

    @TeamYouTube @freeagentcoach4 Youtubetv is not working on Roku. This is a major problem and needs to be fixed.

  • tgpig theFLYINGpig (@tgpig) reported

    @Roku Don’t do it. Youtubetv doesn’t work on here

  • JohnRoastBee Fromunda Cheese (@JohnRoastBee) reported

    Does anyone else have problems with HBO Max crashing all the time on Roku? I can’t even finish a movie. It’s horrible. #HBOMax #ROKU

  • ShaunieLeo Shaun (@ShaunieLeo) reported

    @azmatthews @Roku Nope, they're not saying a thing about it and I've been scouring twitter finding a lot of people with the same issue. This is horrible customer service @Roku tell us something

  • dragonfrewt Reef 🐺 (@dragonfrewt) reported

    Spotify wont work on the roku anymore this is my villain origin story

  • DesertHeat32 DesertHeat (@DesertHeat32) reported

    @TeamYouTube I know you’re aware of the Roku problem. Please provide me some type of answer other than don’t delete the app, you might lose access! That’s already done, & I’m not the only customer who’s made that error. Please tell me how you plan to fix this??!!

  • raysqa Not Erring On The Side of Caution (@raysqa) reported

    @RokuSupport I am unable to load some channels. Sling, Hulu, Amazon Video - no. Netflix, Roku, Vudu - yes. I have checked my network. Error: Sling TV could not be run because it could not be reinstalled from the network.

  • lexiosborne Lexi (@lexiosborne) reported

    @Roku the YouTube app is broken on both of my TVs... how do I fix this?? @YouTube

  • kontaigous ✨iLUUMiNAUGHTY😈 (@kontaigous) reported

    Sooo apparently @Roku and @YouTubeTV haven’t settled their relationship problems. YouTube tv still isn’t working on my Roxi devices smh

  • byrdblaster9000 Tommy Byrd (@byrdblaster9000) reported

    @RokuSupport I've been able to use my @YouTubeTV app on my Roku streaming device until this evening when I keep receiving an error message that the app can't be reinstalled from the network. Internet connection is good. Every other app works. What gives?

  • zijital Zach Love (@zijital) reported

    @Mskiddo06 @NFresh6 @Roku I’m having trouble with Apple TV Loading up to 100% & then just goes back to the Home Screen Very frustrating

  • ref095 Donald Barnett (@ref095) reported

    @ashleypren @TeamYouTube Hey dumbasses at Google the YouTube app is not working either. You have destroyed what little joy is left by not working with Roku to resolve your petty differences. You both should be working together in this ****** COVID world we live in. Get your **** together. #FUBUTV

  • brandonmbender Brandon Bender (@brandonmbender) reported

    Is anybody else suddenly unable to access @YouTubeTV on their @Roku? It doesn't appear to be just me. I had no issues whatsoever until today.

  • keithmere Keith Meredith (@keithmere) reported

    @YouTubeTV @Roku why won’t my YouTube TV app work through my Roku device? Been using great for 2 years and now not working. What’s the deal

  • ShaunieLeo Shaun (@ShaunieLeo) reported

    @Roku What's going on with Hulu, Philo and Amazon Prime channels. I'm getting the same error

  • bookishemma_ emma rose ✨ (@bookishemma_) reported

    kinda pissed that the youtube app doesn't ******* work on roku, why even have the app on there anymore???

  • LIBRA14885 Lhommeancien, Not Leaving a Paper Trail (@LIBRA14885) reported

    now AppleTV isn't working on our $ROKU @RokuSupport devices anymore in addition to the YOUTUBE channel.Of course, YOUTUBETV is gone because of contract conflict and now can't get to YOUTUBETV through the YOUTUBE app either. looks like ROKU losing control of their software quality

  • MenteDeJay Jay (@MenteDeJay) reported

    @TeamYouTube what is happening between you and @Roku ? This is absolutely ridiculous! Whatever legal, power struggle, bullshit you're having is not the fault of your subscribers and you are hanging us out to dry. Despicable of you to not let your subscribers know about the issue.

  • fullsuntubbo bee ❤︎ (@fullsuntubbo) reported

    moots that are roku users are your netflix and spotify broken too ?

  • JRPGJUNCTION ig: andrewantidote (@JRPGJUNCTION) reported

    not my Roku streaming stick working perfectly fine this morning and it doesn't work right now 🥴. Might look into what clear cache means and see if that fixes anything.

  • nextbookjad JessyKat (@nextbookjad) reported

    @TeamYouTube So, much for the fix. Back at square one in my YouTube once again will not load on my Roku.

  • Cat_Gray14 Cat Gray (@Cat_Gray14) reported

    @AmazonHelp The issue continues. It seems to be a problem on @Roku's end, they've posted on their website they're looking into it. They've apparently been looking into it all day. 😣 Thank you for your response though! If enough channels are aware, maybe it'll put pressure on them to fix it.
