  • Maverick_Blvck Mave is ❗️ trying (@Maverick_Blvck) reported

    I always think about the time my youtube app wouldn't load lilsimsies new video on my Roku and when I tweeted about it, not even two minutes later Roku DMd me, Only to find out it was YouTube issue

  • Glen2Bitz Glen 2 Bitz (@Glen2Bitz) reported

    @Iowamom7 Turn the TV and the Roku off. Reseat the Roku(HDMI) or the HDMI cable from the Roku to the TV. I've had problems with the HDMI cables plugged into the Roku box. Also not all HDMI cables are created equal. The square Roku boxes have more horsepower than the Roku sticks in general

  • merry_shai Shai✨ (@merry_shai) reported

    @RokuSupport @Roku I got the the Roku itself to work again after a reset, but the remote just doesn't work anymore.

  • karmazeek OldSofty (@karmazeek) reported

    @askparamount - I’ve used your Roku channel streaming service in the past and recently found out you’ve been billing me erroneously since last March despite it being cancelled. Your help account on Instagram does not respond.

  • MyArizonaSkyV2 Terry Anderson (@MyArizonaSkyV2) reported

    @Iowamom7 Well, I used to use a Roku but using Firestick now. Loads of problems. I solve all my problems with a restart or unplug. YouTube may have more solutions. On Fire, hold Pause and Okay at same time, it powers off then on. Problem solved.

  • texrence 🙇🏾‍♂️ (@texrence) reported

    netflix on roku is so *** pls fix this

  • Cabnfevr57 Cabn (@Cabnfevr57) reported

    @Iowamom7 We shot down the Roku balloon….gonna have to wait for the next fix 😝

  • nightlystarter Avengers Personal Chair - Daystarter (@nightlystarter) reported

    Did the she-hulk joke work on you or are you normal (have a 7-year-old roku that takes 30 seconds to load one screen)?

    @knox_ridley Knox! Lol u and Beth got everything wrong, Fubo, mgni, bigc, roku, twilio, xpeng, etc… Elliott wave didn’t work on any of those, what a sham.

  • hpcadvisors tony Watson (@hpcadvisors) reported

    @DoorDash_Help It’s $5. You had your chance one of the four times my wife reached out. Your policy is awful and it should not take social media to do what is right. I figure I can cost you hundreds of customers. I’m also posting your policy on Roku’s posts. People need to know your policy

  • m3pols Mark Pols (@m3pols) reported

    @callmejojo53 Couldn’t make Roku work, but it did work via Youtube :)

  • Lots47 Doctor Kittens 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@Lots47) reported

    @GreatCheshire If I recall correctly, the Roku app totally legit has the entire Angel series. Also, the entire Buffy series. And Sliders. For really real legit. I've watched different things on Roku app recently, no problems.

  • knk491 Kristina A. (@knk491) reported

    @Roku you are the worst piece of technology on the planet.

  • edchockey DC (@edchockey) reported

    @PrimeVideo When will you have fixed the problem of ROKU TV And get the apps working without being kicked out NHL games or any other app cannot be used unless a ROKU stick is inserted in the TV being used

  • Jay_n_Iowa JayInIowa (@Jay_n_Iowa) reported

    @Iowamom7 On my firestick I have to go into the settings, then the appa and start clearing the data cache on each app. That seems to help, but not sure how to so that on roku

  • redalienranger Jackson Michaels (@redalienranger) reported

    @DisneyPlus @Disney @Roku can you both please work something out so I could watch Disney Plus basic with ads on my Roku device?! Think of the customers for god’s sake! How are Roku users supposed to watch on a budget?! You’re both greedy and pathetic!

  • erlinger_irene Barbara Irene Erlinger (@erlinger_irene) reported

    So I called my internet Reported all the issues I'm having She said sometimes roku tvs want a 5 g internet strength 💪 So I upgraded to internet 5 g With no additional cost at month And so far everything is okay 👍

  • callmejojo53 call me jojo (@callmejojo53) reported

    @m3pols I'm having the same problem on ROKU .. that and I don't want to watch ads .. arrrgh

  • PrincessKissDev Rena Serena (@PrincessKissDev) reported

    @personasama I like it but I definitely would have spent a bit more to overcome some of the things I don't like. The picture quality is like sooooo nice. The sound quality is not so nice. The lag from the remote and built in Roku stuff is also not great.

  • JerryRenner6 Jerry Renner (@JerryRenner6) reported

    @Iowamom7 I had an older model of roku, that same thing happened. I ended up getting a new one and the problem was solved.

  • Premkayan Premsagar (@Premkayan) reported

    @slinganswers team, My roku app doesnt open at all. Having issue since last evening.

  • Hope_incarnate Midgardsormr’s #1 Fan (@Hope_incarnate) reported

    Obsessed with the idea that since zero’s taste doesnt work she eats all the “failed” food roku makes in his attempt to learn how to cook

  • Iowamom7 Iowamom (@Iowamom7) reported

    OK guys and gals, I have a bit of a problem. My bedroom TV has turned on me. I can't get the audio to match the video. On every single streaming service I have on my Roku. Suggestions?

  • elitmik John (@elitmik) reported

    I’m planning to make an improvement to the Infowars Roku App so that it will use m3u8 playlists for VOD instead of MP4. There’s not a lot of of users of the app, but I think this may help reduce bandwidth costs at infowars. If anyone wants to shadow me on the dev work, lmk.

  • bemorefocused The Focused Entrepreneur (@bemorefocused) reported

    @Roku How many commercials about psoriasis do I have f*ing sit through? What a genuinely awful experience...

  • nforniiii thaMuva✨🪐❤️. (@nforniiii) reported

    @BigHomieBeee I have to roku tv , it work on there

  • TaylorCraig Taylor Craig 🦅 (@TaylorCraig) reported

    @FlaPnthrsPunk @ESPNPlus @Roku looks like we’re all having the same issue, any explanation?

  • ddpop72 me vale madre (@ddpop72) reported

    @Iowamom7 if that still doesnt work, there is 1 last thing before contacting or getting a new roku, in the roku home go to the channels and remove the channel thats giving the problem, and then reselect it and add it back in. good luck!
