-
AWholeLotofMeh (@AWholeLotOfMeh) reported@Roku having subtitles issues continuing into 2026 on streaming services is enough of a reason to move to another platform. The UI is great but come on, it’s been years now.
-
Novangelus (@MLandry70) reportedAre there any good music apps that work on @Roku? Because the @amazonmusic app just plays completely random songs no matter which song I actually select.
-
Morticia (@Morticia121212) reported@tacooghost @Roku Well, they still never fixed it. It's a problem with the Roku TV version, I'm pretty sure. I went & got the free trial at Amazon video & it is on there! Yay!
-
cyberale60 (@cyberale60) reported@Roku It’s terrible for people with vision issues. The icons are too small. It was better the way it was with the large icons
-
Fletch will return in Avengers Doomsday (@IMFletcher2) reported@BigKorn80 @Roku That doesn't work now.
-
Stella Sassier (@stella_sassier) reported@Roku for the love of GOD STOP CHANGING OUR HOME MENUS AND SETTINGS I did not need every single one of my tv input options forced into my app section with no way of removing them Your “help” is not appreciated
-
Maureen Imrie (@maureenmcmahon8) reportedThis new @Roku Home Screen is awful! How can I opt out? Put it back , new upgrade is horrible.
-
Jinxsyns (@Jinxsyns) reportedThis is why I'm so pissed at @Roku and one of the examples i gave in my posts another multi billion dollar company that somehow can't get a website to work right yet has millions in testing hardware or at least millions available to test the site before rollout but thats too hard
-
Jake K (@Jakewk) reportedOk @Roku I’m trying to watch Fracture on my Roku TV Channel and you have a perverse glitch that when I try to rewind for a short time, it sends me back to the first few minutes of the movie and when I try to get back to the spot, it makes me watch all the ads again. WTAF.
-
Democracy (@WambliTatanka) reportedI paid for @hbo through November and im not granted access saying I need to pay again. And your support feature doesn’t work!! What the actual F?! @Roku @TheRokuChannel
-
**** Dracula (@stilltrynnadie) reportedLow-key hate roku I hit the ok button multiple times nothing but if I so much as accidentally touch the guide button I get my YouTube video sent to the ******* backrooms @Roku fix your **** NOW
-
Anthony (@AnthonyAngelo99) reported@AgentAmish @FrndlyTV @Roku I agree. It’s been over a year and I’m not experiencing anything better with frndly. In fact lately I’ve been having problems with guide accessibility. And they just updated the home page with smaller icons and filled with suggestions I don’t care about and they’re in my way
-
Jerry Arnett (@arnettjerry66) reported@Roku Trying to get ahold of Support on Roku is impossible anymore They have a chat section that doesn't work when pressed, I canceled my trial offer and still get charged for a month's worth! I think I'm going to have to end Roku now
-
TheBarbequePit (@BarbequePit) reportedStill no help on this btw @Roku
-
Sydney 👑 (@LoveMyFFAJacket) reported@Roku How do we turn this **** off? It doesn’t work for people who use inputs just as much as streaming. I want to sort my Home Screen how I want it. Ironically how my parents Samsung TV does.
-
Benji (@BenjiShaw7) reported@Roku Fix your new homescreen. Its takes almost a dozen button presses compared to 2-3. This update is ****. Fix it or give us the option before I replace this thing.
-
Rob Ables (@rables73) reported@Roku Hi @Roku thanks but as I stated in the original post, it does it on all 4 of my Roku devices, so it is not a restart issue. Also, it is only the @MLB app. None of my other apps have this issue or other buffering. The MLB app does it multiple times per game and gets stuck.
-
Duchess of Phelps (@MrsRedRage) reported@Roku your AI generated commercials are awful.
-
Benny The Droughtman (@KenNort19009544) reportedYou need a login to use the Roku remote now? Wtf? @Roku That mighty dolla got y’all on yall knees boy
-
Marvin Barry (@GravelyKen48135) reportedThe Netflix button is way too close to the play/pause button on the Roku remote. Pls fix @Roku @netflix
-
Hammer Hains, The Fud Dude (@HammerHeadcases) reported@Roku @Country2018gal We've had the same issue recently.
-
1 (@dolphin4321) reported@Roku I've had a #Roku account for five plus years. Now I can't login/connect to My @amazonfiretv because of your ridiculous captcha and login failure. Ridiculous.
-
A Howard🛩 (@ahoward7652) reportedDon’t buy a @Roku TV. Support is terrible. TV worked perfectly for 30 days then starting have echo with optical and built speakers on. Did everything support told me to do no luck Now they ghosted me! All I want is to have it replaced.
-
Wicked King (@StangXx) reported@Roku I know my internet is down right now, but why doesn't my "live tv" app work during this? I can watch the thumbnail and TV is working, but I'm stuck on that channel cuz the app itself won't load and allow me to change the channel. This is absurd
-
Viv🥀✨ (@xx_viv_xx) reportedAnyone else having an issue with their @TheCW on @Roku ??? It keeps crashing for me
-
ky baby (@__kbolaydiggs__) reported@Roku might be the worst TV brand ever. Remotes never work, when you try to use a mobile remote it can never connect to the TV.. Let’s get it together.
-
Yehuda @ Y10Tax (@Y10Tax) reported@TCL_USA @Roku @RokuSupport Is it typical that bugs can crawl into your screens? any chance you can help me out here?
-

Qhu✳️🦆🏃♂️ (@Qhu_NFT) reportedI have had it with @Amazon Fire Stick. I have a subscription to Shudder and Starz. I can no longer play them without buying a new subscription thru Amazon. I have a @Roku TV upstairs and have no issues playing my subscriptions. Today I ordered another Roku controller for downstairs. Shame on you Amazon. Bye fire stick. Just warning anyone who is thinking about fire stick.
-
🌪Jeff Schipull🦌 (@ojkoj) reported@Roku my hdmi ports are being fucky. Please update your software to fix the issue. Its on multiple tvs.
