((MS__no__nothing)) 👨🦼🎗💙🔯 (@msnonothing1) reported@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...
-
Periodic Audio: Mobile First Hi-Fi 🏴☠️ (@periodicaudio) reportedNot to mention, @roku, an app I PAID FOR was deleted and there's no way to reinstall without buying it again. Where do I send the bill to, so you can reimburse me? Seriously you have a great system, but your updates are horribly broken and ruin the system.
-
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.
-
Reverend Sarah (@revsarahgarner) reported@Roku @FRANCE24 Your channel on my Roku TV is not working. France24 channel. One of my go-to channels.
-
John Anthony Morris (@johns_jewels) reported@hulu_support Network error message. Streaming on @Roku TV. Settings indicate I’m connected with excellent signal strength.
-
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?
-
Chris Nalwasky (@ChrisNalwasky) reported@Roku @FOXSports fix your app. I signed in 5 times and it’s not working.
-
MrScottFletcher (@MrScottFletcher) reported@Roku - your latest updates have really borked antenna live TV recording. Almost unusable. Rewind works until it doesn’t, sometimes just wipes out the buffer, doesn’t show the cursor/scrub time on the timeline, no more thumbnails while scrubbing? Ouch.
-
Jason (@ManuteSwol) reported@Roku Are you guys having some kind of outage? One of my devices failed to update... I factory reset it and now cannot add Apps. Your web site says there is a known issue. How about an update?
-
Watermelon Sugar (Bisan's version) (@HippieChic82) reportedNever mind a 3 hour #SmackDown whatever is going on with @verizon or my @Roku TV. I can't get rid of this damn playback error. I even did a whole damn factory reset to my TV and still getting error code PLYB_122 for over a month. My TV is BARELY 5 years old.

-
Brian Keller (@keller5327) reported@Roku @TheRokuChannel Why don't you brilliant guys over there just put a "Add new device" link in our profile, since all the other ways to have to add a device DON'T WORK!
-
Rych Rage (@RychRage) reported@Roku @jjscomedy Roku, we shouldn't have to connect to the internet to watch OTA channels. Please fix this. If there is an internet outage, which does happen, then Roku users are screwed from even our local OTA channels.
-
Mike.🇨🇦🇳🇱🚛🚚HonkHonkSpeakToMy🥑Avocado🥑 (@MikeP77Doglover) reportedI'm currently watching the YouTube algorithms rebuild my profile. I just got a new Roku, didn't sign in but they're pushing me stuff that's narrowing down who I really am based on the information they have. Very interesting.
-
Harvey Jackalope (@HarveyJackalope) reported@AppleTV and @Roku need to figure out why I can't watch @F1 without the Roku freezing and restarting after 10 minutes. Having no such issues watching on my phone.

-
A Shubert (@ashubert) reported@Ask_Spectrum is there any plan to fix the "last channel" function on app for @Roku using the RW button. Functioned for years & it just stopped. Every Roku I have no longer has this function. It's really annoying to not be able toggle back/forward. V15.2 B:0
-
((MS__no__nothing)) 👨🦼🎗💙🔯 (@msnonothing1) reported@roku What is wrong with your VIAPLAY app? It works fine on my Fire TV. FIX it, or cancel and refund my money. DM for details.

Marek Tyrpa @marekt@dotnet.social (@marekt) reported@slinganswers Are you guys having issues with your Roku app? Two of my Roku devices updated the Sling app and now sling will not start. Just stuck on the red loading wheel.
-
🤔🤦♂️🤷♂️ (@TwittaElite) reportedContacted @RokuSupport last week after their own service (@TheRokuChannel) stopped working properly. A week and a half later, it's still not working. So glad I don't have a subscription through the Roku Channel or I'd be upset.
-
🌻🇺🇦Hangry! (@twistedscamp) reported@roku @Walmart Do any of you care that the updated pushed out to the tvs have effectively bricked them? Having to turn a TV off and back on to change a channel is ridiculous. Fix your software!
-

Dr. Stack Sats & HODL (@NoBagHolder) reportedDear @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.
