Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • nixsight Nicolas Papaconstantinou (@nixsight) reported

    Stuck in a Roku Channel mini-series loop. VERY variable quality; usually decent performances from good actors but very generic stories played by the writers as if they're brand new.

  • Tom_Whiteside_ Tom Whiteside (@Tom_Whiteside_) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam It’s just the Roku box I’m having issues with. Can log in fine on the phone app. And not getting any error code when using the Roku Box on my TV, just states an upload issue

  • bmfsays brian (@bmfsays) reported

    sucks that the @hbomax app doesn't work on Roku TVs, you'd think they'd have figured it out by now

  • JRRadcliffe JR Radcliffe (@JRRadcliffe) reported

    @jessieopie @jjoyce Spectrum doesn't work on Roku anymore so booooo to that one.

  • vibradiant vibradiant (@vibradiant) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Fortunately while my Roku TV gets less responsive after watching HBOmax for a bit, it mostly functions & playback issues resolve for a while by cutting power & restarting, but I'm wondering why the CC display doubles up on a regular basis lately? Very distracting & no known fix.

  • tremgirth nick sutton (@tremgirth) reported

    @Roku the sandlot. a league of there own. moneyball. brewsters millions. is funny, often the worst sports make the better movies.

  • ChoppedKenxy Kenx🇬🇭 (@ChoppedKenxy) reported

    Son this **** made my Roku crash

  • kontrabasso2006 Jose Dario Sanabria (@kontrabasso2006) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I have roku TV, but I can't see anything in my TV? Your app have issues in rokutv devices?

  • rgiss11 Riley (@rgiss11) reported

    @jthayne_91 I don’t hate the idea, but am doubtful this would work on Roku? Any experience with that?

  • SmileAlyssa_ Alyssa :) (@SmileAlyssa_) reported

    @Roku @hbomax how many times do I have to reopen the damn HBO Max app before it'll finally work?!?! I've opened it 4 times now and each time it shuts down for NO REASON and goes back to the Roku home page...

  • TheWahl Alex Wahl (@TheWahl) reported

    @fuboTVsupport My FUBO app on my ROKU has been acting up lately. It keeps pausing for some reason and I know it’s not my WiFi because everything else works fine. Can you please help with that? Thanks.

  • hideousk0jima dan’s life is a movie, and it’s bombing (@hideousk0jima) reported

    is there a streaming device that doesn’t suck ***. are roku tvs good. i just wanna watch my dumb shows and sports on a device that doesn’t crash constantly pls

  • sh1nyy 🏴‍☠️ᴵⁿᶜᵒᵍⁿⁱᵗᵒ ˢᵘᵇᵐᵃʳⁱⁿᵒ🏴‍☠️ (@sh1nyy) reported

    @hideousk0jima Roku usually holds up for about 2-5 years before it starts breaking. Roku tvs are almost always impossible to fix or replace parts bc they have new models like every year & they don't keep up with the parts. When our tvs backlights went out, we were told they don't even make them

  • walid_a_hamed Walid Hamed (@walid_a_hamed) reported

    @Roku you guys are not trusted at all. After few months the hardware is not working and no replacement. I need my money back #ROKU

  • tash08665653 tash (@tash08665653) reported

    @Roku can you please fix it so the Roku home page ads are family friendly or have an option to select family friendly ads?

  • CodeDevOps Code DevOps 👨‍💻 (@CodeDevOps) reported

    Geez @Roku - is it a priority to fix battery drain in the remotes? My remotes are eating batteries about every two weeks. A support ticket just told me they're working on it with no estimate as to when, but to just use the app on my phone.

  • CPTN_HARKN3SS Joshua A. Durham (@CPTN_HARKN3SS) reported

    If you signed up for Vudu through Wal-Mart, like me, it is now impossible to sign into the @Roku video store. It steadfastly refuses my login credentials. F**k @FandangoNOW

  • is_jla JLA - Abolish The Filibuster #BlackLivesMatter (@is_jla) reported

    Just another grievance against @Roku smart televisions again. Your products truly suck. What's more, the SAME technical issue as THE LAST Roku tv. I'll never get another #ROKU anything, ever again. 🖕💩🖕💩🖕💩🖕💩🖕💩🖕💩🖕 #RokuSucks

  • haxanvillain 🌺 Häxanäx🌺 (@haxanvillain) reported

    @lathdin @Egal_Matreaux I dropped Netflix for HBOMax. Less catalog I think but more quality. Their Roku app is useless though, until they fix it I have to cast from computer.

  • AnubisG1984 Anubis (@AnubisG1984) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Thank you for getting back to me. So I did these steps before but it's not the devices, it's the app. I have multiple subscriptions to Netflix, Hulu, Disneh+, etc and all of them work fine and fast. Only HBO Max is the one that is the slowest, keeps crashing on my LG C9, Roku and

  • DCCollectors DCCollectors (@DCCollectors) reported

    @hbomax please fix the issue with @Roku Have to reboot my Roku every time I start watching a show on the app. Doesn’t happen with any other app, just yours. And yes I have removed and reinstalled several times... show just stop right at the beginning...

  • AERTIME aertime (@AERTIME) reported

    @jjoyce i have neither, but friends have complained that due to weird licensing battles that spectrum doesn’t work on roku at the moment.

    We’re watching some of the old Quibi shows now that they’re free on the Roku Channel and. They were out of their damn minds to think this cropping and pacing would work

    @elias_stein That’s a bummer. I have a similar issue with my new Roku tv

  • RonHigh Ron High (@RonHigh) reported

    @TeamYouTube Is YouTube TV on Roku having problems? It’s blurry on the updated YouTubeTV app and through the YouTube app. Download speed is 232Mbps. Netflix, Disney+, Discovery+, HBO Max all look perfect.
