Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Fipplerip M Richmor (@Fipplerip) reported

    Does anyone subscribe to Sling using their ROKU stick ? What's going on with MSNBC and CNN on Sling ? Sling just refuses to load. Paramount + & Peacock Prime are just fine showing the Hearing but NOT Sling. Keep getting "Error" message.

  • MiaCuti_ MiaCuti (She/Her) (@MiaCuti_) reported

    thank god there is an official roku mobile app that you can use as a remote because the remote we have either broke or it went missing so guess we're using that as an alternate remote until we get a new one or find it if it isn't broken

  • YannaHarris Ayanna Harris (@YannaHarris) reported

    @XfinitySupport Is the xfinity stream beta app still supported on Roku? I’ve been getting an error message all week even after uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

  • fmc21369 Wizard⚙ (@fmc21369) reported

    @TeamYouTube I think it's my HDMI cord. I plugged in my Roku stick and the problem seemed to stop. I'll get a new cord for my Express. Thank you, though.

  • professor_abee woozle wozzle? (@professor_abee) reported

    by contrast, worst thing my parents got going on is remembering to not switch their phone's orientation in the middle of recording a video or how to set up a new roku.

  • Hope_incarnate Midgardsormr's #1 fan (@Hope_incarnate) reported

    Theyre on opposite ends etheirys but Aymeric will still call roku to talk him through an issue he had a work, or to hear what roku's opinions are on it.Then Roku would urge him to relax and aymeric would listen and then ask him to tell him about literally anything he did ghat day

  • NeedSleep62 MikeM (@NeedSleep62) reported

    Hey, I have Roku are the trials on there. I'm usually asleep by 5. Do they air them. I work graveyard

  • rcfsoh RCF 🇺🇸 (@rcfsoh) reported

    I continue to have problems with @Roku -but I really like the service when it actually works. Now my issue is, new Roku stick first tries to pair with the tv downstairs, so I unplug that one, & the new remote just seems dead. Won’t pair. Help website is very unhelpful

  • Brotherwolf1 Andrew (@Brotherwolf1) reported

    @Sling @Roku having issues with sling streaming on my roku device. Constantly stopping to buffer. Internet is fine and other apps working fine. Tried restarting, removing and adding app didn’t help.

  • toxtra Todd Oxtra (@toxtra) reported

    @InsipidGhost @paramountplus Interesting, I've never had issues with the app on Roku or my phone.

  • Yellie__ Thunder **** (@Yellie__) reported

    @sailor_sag I thinks it’s the system the app is streaming on. I don’t have issues with HBO either on Roku.

  • artist1collect Duke of Motown (@artist1collect) reported

    @LaraJillMiller @Roku You should contact @RokuSupport I think they can fix it. (Sorry for the late reply)

  • wtva9news WTVA 9 News (@wtva9news) reported

    @cwm030 @ChelseaWTVA @TanyaCarterTV I'm not sure. Was this a one-time issue or has it been ongoing? Also, are you using our TV app (Roku, AppleTV, Amazon Fire) or are you using cable? - Zac

  • epicspartanMF ES 🙇🏻‍♂️ (@epicspartanMF) reported from Indianapolis, Indiana

    @Roku I need help

  • goingdark49 at (@goingdark49) reported

    @PlayFor90 Sporting app on Roku wouldn’t work so I wouldn’t list that ****

  • g13005 TheGreatDL (@g13005) reported

    @MagellanTVDocs Done, thank you for resolving the issue so quickly. There is a known problem w/ #Roku billing, not getting recognized w/ Magellantv. Your accounting showed the subscription cancelled but also renewed. The fix was to refund me through roku, I will sub via your website instead.

  • GenDenelith Gen Denelith (@GenDenelith) reported

    Scientific findings: It doesn't work together. Roku's flavours are too delicate and get overpowered by the beer. And the alcohol in the gin muddles the flavours of the beer. Just becomes a mess. Well at least now I know. Back to just beer until I get some tonic tomorrow.

  • realmariobtcali MARI⭕ BTCALI (@realmariobtcali) reported

    @ReelzChannel has done a pretty terrible job marketing their unknown channel while everyone is trying to figure out how to watch #OnPatrolLive . Where do we watch? Sling? Philo? Hulu? Only cable with an add on? Live on Roku? Not live on Roku? Cmon @danabrams we need the juice!!!!

  • shayladanaee Eudaimonia🦋 (@shayladanaee) reported

    Imagine paying for wifi and when it cuts out they offer you better wifi, then tell you they're sending a new router and then send you a streaming box instead. In a world of roku's and smart tv's I don't think I need your stupid ******* streaming flex box. Fix the wifi I pay for.

  • BritinTexas1959 Trevor Money (@BritinTexas1959) reported

    @TweetFiction @lanechanged Trouble with Roku's app you have to have local TV cable (kinda defeats the purpose of "cutting the cord").

  • ResearchGriffin Griffin Research (@ResearchGriffin) reported

    1/ Thread: $ROKU Masterplan and Achilles heel. Roku's Masterplan: 1. Develop ad capability 2. Help streaming companies manage their ad inventory 3. Use the revenues to develop ROKU Originals 4. Have the Roku Originals overtake other streaming companies' offerings However....

  • 1bigJawBone JESSE JAMES. GETTR @RealJesseJames TRUTH @1bigbeer (@1bigJawBone) reported

    Lost Wi-Fi on my Roku Tv and I tried everything to fix it to no avail. Unplugged Tv for a minute and it's working now.

  • iylandi nybear (@iylandi) reported

    My little brother broke my roku remote into pieces. Tell me why I just put that ***** back together with my BARE HANDS. No tutorials, no help, NUN. Just plastic pieces, a motherboard, & a dream!

  • LouciferOlsen Lou Olsen 🇮🇪 (@LouciferOlsen) reported

    @slinganswers Did that. Didn’t help. Every other app on the Roku works accept yours. Why would that be?

  • toxtra Todd Oxtra (@toxtra) reported

    @InsipidGhost @paramountplus Interesting, I've. Ever had issues with the app on Roku or my phone.

  • caseymaeee_ Case 🌙 (@caseymaeee_) reported

    @Sean_C_Larkin @ReelzChannel @OfficialOPLive Too bad I can’t watch it crying😭 really hope the show starts streaming for Roku as soon as possible!! I feel like a lot of people are having this issue 😔

  • aeonjoey JOΞY LOPΞZ 😷 #BLM 🖖 🏳️‍🌈 (@aeonjoey) reported

    @TeamYouTube This is actually happening to all @Roku users, 60.1 million of them potentially. Don’t tell me to report an “issue” like I’m some isolated case.

  • MeitnerTom Tom Meitner (@MeitnerTom) reported

    I tweeted at Roku complaining about a swear word in a Home Screen ad that I didn't want my kids seeing. Simple, right? Then Mr. "I'm a Linguist Academic" drops into my replies confused by the problem. 2/

  • AmericanBoy Stephen Christoph (@AmericanBoy) reported

    @MeitnerTom @Roku What’s the problem exactly?

  • B_hindthebeard Chaim-Aaron Green (@B_hindthebeard) reported

    @MeitnerTom @Roku It’s not Roku’s issue though, is it? It’s advertised on HBO Max’s streaming site as well. Is this a kids profile? Perhaps then it isn’t appropriate.
