  • TC77812 7-9 (6 rings) #GoPats (@TC77812) reported

    @NESN @RocklandTrust Your Roku app sucks, fix it

  • bdub3815 Bdub3815 (@bdub3815) reported

    @DisneyPlusHelp It didn’t help so far. Still error code 401. Just on our roku TVs. My phone seems to still be able to log on

  • BpayneCOS Brenna (@BpayneCOS) reported

    @ethan_lavery @amandamull We use it on Roku. But scrolling is awful. It takes forever to load, etc. Once you choose a show, it’s good.

  • scolesmckeown buffy1630 (@scolesmckeown) reported

    @amandamull it finally works on my roku. but before i got that to work it was not worth watching.

  • CamSmith17 Cam Smith (@CamSmith17) reported

    @dirtvision its time to update your platform. You can't cast directly from a smart device like flo. Your website doesn't work to sign in on a smart tv. Your not at all user friendly for the cost this isn't acceptable. You shouldn't have to buy a roku or 2nd device to stream.

  • taylors0022 Taylor (@taylors0022) reported

    @NeekMill I was able to watch on Fox sports go on Roku. You need to sign in with a TV provider but I'm assuming you have one if you're asking for a game to be on TV. But yes you can also get BTN+ on Roku if you want to pay the fee

  • 007Jay007 Jason (@007Jay007) reported

    @TheAHL @TheAHL your free preview of #ahltv is not working on the @Roku app.

  • bribabe16_ ♎️Bri Grace♿️ (@bribabe16_) reported from La Crosse, Wisconsin

    My roku wouldn’t load my Disney+ and it better fix its **** before tomorrow because I’m already almost a day behind on WandaVision

  • ghosr Jamo (@ghosr) reported

    Anyone else getting a "Status: 401" error on Disney+? It persists on my Roku after rebooting and after logging out and back in. Not sure what else to try @DisneyPlusHelp, @RokuSupport, any help?

  • alleycuttires Roy Allison (@alleycuttires) reported

    @dirtvision Couldn’t get the app to work on my roku Got on the app I clicked on already purchased , cause I already did and it said program wasn’t live and when it became live you could view it? Never worked all night 😞

  • POMCORE poot (@POMCORE) reported

    the crunchyroll roku app is genuinely the worst alas good night

  • kat8956 Kat8956 (@kat8956) reported

    @disneyplus I am getting the same error 401 that others are getting today...on my Roku TV and my office Roku but not on my cell phone. Very frustrating...and I talked to customer service and it was no help.

  • womensstan holly grace🧛🏻‍♀️🖤 (@womensstan) reported

    @jceypacey mine doesn’t buffer but the roku app randomly closes sometimes

  • Kilgore27 Kilgore Trout (@Kilgore27) reported

    @TeamYouTube Thanks for the response and I will give the reinstall a whirl, but the problem seems endemic. I don't have to go through reinstalling other apps. Not sure if it is on your end or Amazon's. The app works great on Roku and casting is fine.

  • EroticaGood SocialJusticeHeals (@EroticaGood) reported

    @sza @Roku quality content for free, reducing the number of streaming services you subscribe to. Avoid cable/satellite service, it's a rip off. As far as brand, I like Sony but I do not exactly have a lot of experience with other brands.

  • kittikatt82 phoenix lover (@kittikatt82) reported

    @sza I have a LG, and 2 tcl's n purchased a hinsense roku TV n never had any issues with them

  • bwtdpt BWTDPT (@bwtdpt) reported

    @HeheStreams I tried this afternoon and yesterday's games were working... However I'm having the same problem tonight. Can't get any of tonight's games to work on Roku.

  • BensCharlie Ben Kitchings The History Voyager Podcast (@BensCharlie) reported

    @amandamull Not only does it not work on Roku, the only browser that I've even had any luck at all and it's not regular luck is chrome.

  • inCAMnito KiLLA✌🏾️🏁 (@inCAMnito) reported

    I’ve looked up every Roku article/forum and no one knows how to fix it smh.

  • W_DC_ WDC (@W_DC_) reported

    @davidblattman Stop swinging from your own ****. Get this **** on roku and stop having B list celebs take a dive. You have a lot of work to do. It is 2021 - I'm not mirroring **** for $20

  • ethan_lavery Ethan Lavery (@ethan_lavery) reported

    @amandamull It's on roku now, seems to work well.

  • LeighAn18198692 LeighAnn (@LeighAn18198692) reported

    @TiVo your customer service is awful. You Want me to purchase a new box when this one isn't even 2 years old. Disgusting. Going Roku

  • the_thing903 the_thing903 (@the_thing903) reported

    I love @AMCTheatres unfortunately had to do some risk mitigation on the stock and sold 168 of my 468 shares. Still holding 300. But gonna watch some movies on the @AMCTheatres On Demand App on Roku! #saveAMC HELP SUPPORT AMC!

  • A_J_Waters AJ Waters (@A_J_Waters) reported

    @alyssatcarroll Both barely work on my Roku, when they work at all!!

  • jennckilpatrick Jennifer C. Kilpatrick (she/her) 🌊🏄‍♀️ (@jennckilpatrick) reported

    .@RokuSupport @roku @disneyplus I'm getting a 401 error on only Disney+. All other channels/apps work great. I've changed network settings, done a system restart, and checked for software updates -- I'm up to date. Is there a solution coming soon?

  • lcmarie123 LC (@lcmarie123) reported

    Is anyone else having trouble with the @funimation Roku app? I've tried several times the past couple of days to watch something, and had no luck.

  • jeanontwiter JeanMarc Back on Twittęr (@jeanontwiter) reported

    How can you have such a great mobile/tablet app @Crunchyroll but your tv apps are all garbage roku/Xbox/PS/firestick it doesn’t matter they all are subpar. Will you ever fix this?
