    @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.

    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.

    This is a total first world problem, but I lose my mind that it takes 12 minutes and 85 clicks to finally get to the show I’m trying to watch and one accidental step of my dog to wind up on Roku Greatest Hits.

    @hulu_support Well, my hulu live is 3 hrs behind on both ROKU and the HULU app on my LG TV. But the app on my phone is good. What's the problem?

    @enhanced_games @Roku @ResortsWorldLV Crazy that it took you until now to announce where you’ll be hosting the games. Terrible marketing.

    @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.

    @TCL_Global @PlayStation Turns out it was @Roku's new screen Trial. If this issue happens to you, go into TV Settings > Home Screen and disable the Screen Trial that is listed in there. Fix my issue right away.

    @Roku @TheRokuChannel Just had the worst customer service experience with ROKU. Dealt with 6-7 different reps. Each one telling a different story of why my purchased subscriptions wouldn’t work. Ranged from uninformed to just plain lazy & uninterested in helping. NEVER AGAIN!

    @Prime_KD @Apple I think it might be a @Roku problem. I can stream on the Apple app on my phone and directly through the TV, but the Roku app crashes.

    Hey @hulu_support I am unable to log In and your chat folks actually hung up on me. I have not moved yet your app says I have. I do not have this issue with any other app on @Roku . #customerservicefail

    @Roku is there a reason why your devices stopped connecting to WIFI? And is this a regional issue? I could connect to the Hotspot on my iPhone. But I can’t connect WIFI to the device. I’ve tried multiple WIFI from different ISPs.

    Let’s see if @Hulu will actually work today. I dunno if it’s on their end or @Roku but all week I’ve had problems.

    @Ask_Spectrum I noticed a bill for $115 MORE on my Spectrum. Turns out, without getting my permission, anyone can add TV services from their TV. Spectrum blamed @Roku - NOT Roku's fault! This is 100% Spectrum ALLOWING my credit card to be billed. Yo Spectrum, FIX IT!

    @DIRECTV & @Roku count your days! Why would you allow a customer to sign up via Roku and thru your services for the same exact product. Why tf would i sign up for the same sorry *** service twice! & for @Roku not to issue refunds after I’ve been charged twice is crazy

    Dear @MLBTV please fix your @Roku app. Every time I try to resume a game the next day from where I turned it off, the broadcast begins where I left off, immediately crashes, and then starts back at the beginning of the game when I restart it.

    @PlutoTV I'm having a lot of issues with your app on my @Roku . The app freezes during commercials and I have exit to Home. My ROKU is running software version 15.1.4 Build 3321. Yes I've restarted the unit and no it doesn't help. Your app is version 5.45 Build 3 I've cleared the ROKU cache, removed & reinstalled your app.
