    @YouTube Fix your Roku app. I don't want to scroll though my history looking for videos ONE AT A TIME. And there were already tabs for Watch Later, etc. More button presses isn't better. Want to fix something? Put Subs and Library higher on the menu than Gaming, Music, etc...

    @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!

    @hbomax @HBO please fix your @Roku app. I shouldn’t have to hunt for the show I’m trying to finish binging! Also “continue watching” doesn’t need to feed me the previous episode that I just finished #bemorelikenetflix

    @LCLoudmouth @Roku I think I read they’re going to be fixing that issue.

    @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.

    @hulu_support Network error message. Streaming on @Roku TV. Settings indicate I’m connected with excellent signal strength.

    Does anyone know someone with experience building a Roku app? I find a bunch of people who are down for the work until they find out it's for a rental app and not AVOD. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

    @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?

    I'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.

    Oh my gosh, #AppleMusic is so trash. I'm on a free trail, and the **** barely works. I mean, I guess you need to use it on an Apple product 'cause I can't log into itunes on my PC, it won't log into my Roku. Anyone else have issues with Apple Music?

    @paramountplus @ufc is not working on any @Roku devices. Works perfectly on my iPhone. Figure it out! I’ve completed all troubleshooting possibilities.

    Have we as a society been too quiet about how awful tv remote controls are? Fire stick? Roku??? These things are the mini muffins of remotes and I will not stand for it

    Fix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I went into Picture Settings, turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.

    @tagesschau Please fix the Tagesschau Roku app in the US! Viewers can't watch Tagesschau in the US. I've tried calling NDR in Hamburg to fix the problem, but they couldn't help.

    @Verizon hey, why does my home internet default to a different location then I’m at? I cant get my @watchfoxone to work correct because it’s giving me Chicago as my local news, not Milwaukee! How can I fix this? I updated my correct address on @Roku
