@jinxeptor Also I have tried downloading the app to use a phone remote and I have not been able to get it to work for years now when I know when I had my first Roku in 2012 that it was like a 2-second process

Another problem with Roku and Netflix, when rewinding a program gets stuck, you have to exit and re-enter to continue. It is very annoying.

@Roku I have a Roku that the @Sling always goes back to the home screen. Now I'm watching another channel on my Roku TV and that one the Wi-Fi always disconnects. Is there something inherently wrong with the Roku devices? Is there a software quality issue?

@HBOMaxHelp They helped a little for about two days. Still slow, but watchable. Now back to original problem. 10 min., 3 app crashes and a Roku restart and I still haven’t been able to get anything but the three loading dots on an episode, which eventually freezes and crashes.

@Apple Why is your Roku Apple TV+ app such rubbish? It’s by far the worst user experience of all the streaming services I use. No auto play from one episode to another, and it never remembers where I am in an episode if I leave and come back. You can do so much better.

@Hobby_Connect Me neither. I use my in-laws' login for their 📺 service to use all the different network-specific apps thru Roku.

Changing inputs, to antenna, or roku, doesn’t help. Have sound but no picture. Can change channels.

@Robert_Leon_90 Is it the mobile app? I haven’t had any issues with it on the roku. Haven’t used it on my phone or any other streaming devices though.

@hbomax what is wrong with yalls app on Roku?? I’ve had nothing but problems since I downloaded it. It take at least 4 tries to get anything to play and half the time it won’t let you finish what you watch. Any suggestions?

@WanderinDreamr Same here. I don’t think tixr on roku works at all for anime expo. Hope they fix it soon or at least in time for the vod to be available on it.

@hbomax I still can't watch anything after restarting my Roku. When I try to watch something by hitting play it just blips like nothing happened. Is there a way to fix this?

@AnimeExpo I bought my pass in advance & can't access anything on Roku. Had to switch to browser - latency & buffering problems are terrible. Will be super sad if this continues during the streams that won't be on VOD.

@pastelpaperback My TV has the same problem. Won't update or play apps. Love my Roku, as it's easier to navigate those apps anyway.

And I STILL can't get the @ESPN app content THAT I'VE PAID FOR on @Roku. Roku won't even give me a Live Chat option and ESPN tells me it's Roku's problem. It would be really cool if all'y'all got your act together.

Looking up the specs of the old Roku device, they seem pretty stingy for a device from 2017 (and might’ve explained some problems): 256MB storage space? Only 512MB of memory? A cheap fitness tracker probably has more horsepower than that...
