xprezeu (@xprezeu63204) reported@Roku I was going to join today but your app doesn’t say much. Yiu cannot chat because of bats in Apple phones. Does it work on Verizon ? I have no idea what a subscription is or how much it is. Get a new a manager. I’ll find something else I guess.
-
🎣 (@SpangleAngler) reported@Roku If the playback speed on Roku TV for U-Tube videos suddenly stopped working and that feature is no longer even available (it once was), is that fixable through Roku support or is that @YouTube who would fix it? Our family's TV used to have playback speed options but now doesn't

-
Primetime 📺 (@Primetime_TB) reportedFinally watching @this_is_acw After Shock. Starting from beginning. Had issues with devices so eventually settled in on canceling the subscription through @Roku and then subscribing to @Triller_TV+ itself and hopefully this will let me watch it on 2 tvs.
-
SynRen (@SynRen) reported@Roku I brought a brand new Roku TV on 07/05/24, now it does not work. It has a black screen. I called Roku and did all the troubleshooting, and they said the hardware is dead. I think they should replace their defective product. Yet it says it should last 5 years minimum.

PureBlood86 (@MAGAPureblood86) reported@Roku WTF?! Remote control batteries go dead every 2 weeks. Can we fix this? I've never seen anything like this in my life. Multiply this times 4 ROKU tvs in the house. Getting ridiculous. Is Amazone Fire any better? anybody chime in. Thx,

-
Meredith Porterfield (@meredithep) reported@Roku @foxone I don't want to watch FIFA but I would like to watch other apps and would appreciate it if they actually worked on Roku. I have no problem with the apps on other devices. Just Roku

-
Cream the Barber (@creamthebarber) reported@Roku Just bought a new stick just a few months ago, and it’s already taken a crap on me. Freezes all the time, and now doesn’t pick up my WiFi. It was fine when I first got it, now it just doesn’t work. And this is about the 4th stick that’s done this. Really terrible. Smh.
-
Adam Billmann (@AdamBillmann) reported@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
-

-
Jake Tomberlin (@jaketomberlin) reported@Roku I’m a long-time Roku fan, but this latest home experience is terrible. It’s so bad I’m considering Apple TV. Please roll it back to the last version or give users the option to do so.
-
LIBER000 (@Samael1976) reported@CordCuttersNews Great! I will make sure after I throw this POS TV down the stairs that I never buy another @Roku TV again. Every update makes my TV more useless and unusable. Can't wait! 😒😑
-
Mary McNeight (@ServiceDogAcdmy) reported@Roku What the HECK did you do to live tv pause? There is no way to fast forward and see where you are in the program. You’ve literally broken the best feature of having a Roku TV.
-
Greg (@Xuser784) reported@Roku system keeps crashing. This is a new issue as of today.
-
[a case of the blog] (@acaseofthetwit) reportedI normally love my @Roku — I have one for each TV! — but my living room one has been a real issue. The remote randomly stopped working and the device itself now reboots itself multiple times a day (often in the middle of viewing something). Very annoying.
-
Reductio ad absurdum, PhD. 🐑🥫😘 my 🫏. (@tweetbuster01) reported@Roku @calvinbrain97 I have a issue with it. On several Roku’s and EXCLUSIVELY ON SPECTRUM app, the closed caption feature just stops working even though it says it ON. And it’s in ALL programs and channels on the app. WTF. I have to exit app, load something else then come back to Spectrum to fix
