    I have spent hours on phone with roku support and had conference call with roku and my internet provider. No fix and all because of a software update! Paying for streaming services that can’t be accessed. Come on Roku You can do better!

  • GillelandKristi Roman (@GillelandKristi) reported

    Is there anything worse than trying to sign in to a Roku app with a strong password?

  • hpotterrocks714 Tara Thomas (@hpotterrocks714) reported

    I can’t @paramountplus to download on my Fire stick or stream on my Roku! 2 days of this. Help

  • TWSheppard Tom Sheppard (@TWSheppard) reported

    I watched other 4K content from various sources with differing audio quality from stereo to TrueHD and it all played fine on Plex and YouTube. So the Apple TV+ app on both the Roku and Shield is garbage. I don't have a $$$ 4K Apple TV box, but I bet it's peachy there. 🖕🏻

  • AddieWoolf Addie Woolf @🏡 (@AddieWoolf) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I am using the app on a TCL Roku TV. The screen goes black and then I have to go back to the main Roku app screen and reload the HBO Max app. It's the only app I use that has this problem on this TV.

  • Deevvva DeeVaah🇯🇲 LCSW (@Deevvva) reported

    @Roku hey, so your issues are still not fixed with @hbomax When will@this be resolved.

  • ZiWukong Guy Greenwood 話語 王凱 (@ZiWukong) reported

    @FOX5Vegas Why can't I set up an account to make your Roku app work? Refused for CAPTCHA wasn't given opprotunity to pass. Have 2nd home in Henderson, COX Internet & Dish Network box setting in front of me

  • NESN NESN (@NESN) reported

    @madnessofmarch @Roku Hello! We are experiencing a technical issue with the NESN live stream tonight. We are working to resolve the issue as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience.

  • TheRagingCelt Richard Jensen (Vaxed.) (@TheRagingCelt) reported

    @PhilNobileJr I’ve run netflix and HBOmax through my PS5 and gotten the same image on all titles but I've never had that issue on my Roku. And not that localized. Odd.

  • AlayonC Christina V Alayon (@AlayonC) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Got the update done on my Roku tv to fix the issue of my movies not playing but now the closed caption is not working. I have it on through the HBO settings and my tv settings

  • bawalla2013 Robert Patton (@bawalla2013) reported

    @webgyrl2 @espn @Roku We have a terrible time trying to watch sports online on ESPN.

  • _robertgraham robert graham (@_robertgraham) reported

    @Roku hey bestie! Your device isn’t working.Please reach out! As there is simply no way to get in touch with you on your awful website

  • zannahdo Zannah Buck (@zannahdo) reported

    Hey @ESPNFANSUPPORT - can you fix the replay of last night’s USC-BYU game? Won’t work via Roku app, and I did ALL the troubleshooting. Definitely a you-problem (I can watch literally everything else BUT that game) that needs to be fixed. Thanks!

  • stacfincher Stacy Fincher (@stacfincher) reported

    @hallmarkchannel I've tried to watch An Unexpected Christmas on demand on my Roku and before the ending, it abruptly stops and then automatically switches to Nine Kittens. Please help!

  • SetSteakKnives SetofSteakKnives 🇺🇸 (@SetSteakKnives) reported

    @NESN Sorry guys, it's almost 2022. Get your crap together. Besides this issue, your Roku channel is atrocious and not being to pause and rewind is bizarre. Now it's Sunday night and I can't see the game.

  • notpunkapu Definitely NOT Punk Apu (@notpunkapu) reported

    @RomanvmLarper @Milkym0o Idk. The mark-up on “smart” tvs can be insane when you can just buy a 4K fire stick or Roku for $40-$50. Some of the smart menus are trash and load like ****. I avoid smart when picking a tv and just go for best picture quality then use the fire stick.

  • iamtimfoley Tim R. Foley (@iamtimfoley) reported

    Hey @hulu_support can you please add an option to your @Roku app that allows me to change the video stream quality. I'd like to lower the resolution to reduce my internet data usage. But, you don't have that option in your Roku app. @hulu #Hulu

  • asimps512 Andrew L Simpson Jr (@asimps512) reported

    @AmazonHelp having issues with prime video on roku

  • chelseaccarr Chelly Belly (@chelseaccarr) reported

    @MStockhill @Roku Apparently it’s the new update and their engineers are “working on it” although it’s been weeks….. but yeah I can’t use my TV at all none of the apps work

  • H8MEdropshOt dub (@H8MEdropshOt) reported

    @Chaosxsilencer Oh yeah here I’ll even shout out what I use, iWebTV there is hella ads but you can buy a premium edition for 6.99$ but I can only get it to work on roku tvs

  • MStockhill Michaela Stockhill (@MStockhill) reported

    @chelseaccarr @Roku Idk what happened to yours but all three of the rokus in our house stopped working at the same time for WEEKS after a power outage. Couldn’t connect to the Wi-Fi. It was sooooo annoying

  • butterflymoono les🦋🐙💗 (@butterflymoono) reported

    why the roku app work better than my damn remote😭😭😭

  • befumo_joe Joe Befumo (@befumo_joe) reported

    @NFL Your app constantly has issues, it was like this last year. This happens on multiple platforms, Android, Roku and Android TV.

  • wolfsister53 Nance Michalos🏳️‍🌈 (@wolfsister53) reported

    @TheClaudiaBlack @hbomax Well that sucks! I watch it on Roku and have never had a problem 🤔

  • ElioHyena Elio Wyen (@ElioHyena) reported

    Amazing what changing a cable can do, i was having trouble with a Roku Express 4K+ disconnecting & sometimes reboot itself, bought a new Micro USB from Walmart today, changed the cable & it seems to be working fine now. Maybe the previous USB cable wasn’t supplying enough power?

  • Mrslloyd Rena Lloyd (@Mrslloyd) reported

    @Roku I WILL NEVER REFER ANYONE TO PURCHASE A ROKU!! I am a disabled invalid/shut-in and depend on my TV. the ROKU does not sync with the programs. I fight everyday turning off and on. Can't get any help from ROKU. I AM SO FRUSTRATED and need HELP.
