    @tntdrama fix your trash app for roku stick… can’t sign in to your bs

  • alsaldich Alan Saldich (@alsaldich) reported

    @TeamYouTube On a Roku TV, probably had 10 playback errors in the last 10 days. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app on Roku several times and that seems to fix it for awhile, but then it reoccurs. I’ve sent several error codes in using the iPhone app too.

  • ekucolonel92 steve mcclain (@ekucolonel92) reported from Georgetown, Kentucky

    @RokuSupport hey…having trouble getting any apps to open today in Roku. Please help!

  • Craftylefty2126 Ryan, current Pope of Chilitown (@Craftylefty2126) reported

    Also, while I’m here and drunk, what’s it gonna take to get a Roku app @WNBA? Help a guy out

  • throwawaycomet throwawaycomet (@throwawaycomet) reported

    @4viewers App crashes on Roku Express Only plays an advertised episode when clicking an Channel 4 ad on the Roku home screen. Is this a known problem?

  • ChrisJTuthill Christopher Tuthill (@ChrisJTuthill) reported

    @MeierEd @Roku @SNYtv That's interesting, all my issues have been on the Roku app. It works ok on my phone but I don't want to watch it on this tiny screen. Radio is nice sometimes anyway. But I'd like to have the app working for my 2nd tv.

  • iamcornflower ċȏяṅғʟȏẇєя (@iamcornflower) reported

    @NBAonTNT Why is the picture on the game all zoomed in? Anyone else having this issue on the TNT app on Roku?

  • JCinex Jay Cinex (@JCinex) reported

    @JTSmith1014 Practically never. Would say neber, but I do catch the clips on youtube here and there. Having a @Roku has been a major help in filtering and sometimes eliminating what shows I dont want to watch or deal with..

  • CliffordPigott Clifford Pigott (@CliffordPigott) reported

    @Roku can't update software and there's nothing else I can access. Only a year old need help fixing it

  • michaelmiraflor michaelmiraflor.eth (@michaelmiraflor) reported

    @seyitaylor I thought Roku purchased the whole catalog? Or is this content arbitrage at work?

  • PedroBocci20 Pedro (@PedroBocci20) reported

    @markkilborn @Roku Should be a simple fix for Roku, I wonder why they haven't done it? 🤔

  • notfiredup Sammy (@notfiredup) reported

    Help I’m trapped and I can’t find my way out of Roku city 😥

  • I_am_platypus Dr. Lizzly Atoms (@I_am_platypus) reported

    Hospital Inpatient "Warm Tip": If you have a Chromecast/Fire/Roku/whatever smallish streaming device, ask some one to bring it with the usual change of clothes, etc. There are some workarounds for weird wifi login situations, but a lot of hospitals have "open" visitor networks.

  • TeamYouTube TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) reported

    @TortoiseHero Sorry to hear that – we're already investigating the issue and we'll post an update as soon as we have more info. For now, see if restarting your Roku will do the trick. Also, try rebooting your router. If the problem persists, other tips are available in the link above.

  • canalangel nbangel (@canalangel) reported

    You’d like to think that #technology makes your day to day smoother. I’ve never had so many problems with @itvhub and @Roku crashing out with the end result in over 15 minutes of back to back adverts when trying to watch a drama. Sometimes I think #ondemand is a waste of time.

  • ChrisJTuthill Christopher Tuthill (@ChrisJTuthill) reported

    @AnnieTJohnson @Roku @SNYtv I guess it's on WPIX 11 today, but even so, it does this every day and no one responds except to say "we're aware our app is trash and continue to know that it doesn't work"

  • danak2 Dana K (@danak2) reported

    @TVMoJoe AMC+ via Roku. I have to re-login frequently

  • rmcclain54 Robert #IStandWithUkraine McClain (@rmcclain54) reported

    Hey @britboxus , When I use TIVO I have to login every day, not so with ROKU .... WHY???

  • lifebyakilah ✨♉️💚 (@lifebyakilah) reported

  • dawnk777 Dawn Klein🌊 🌊 (@dawnk777) reported

    @VotingBlueInTX So it's a thingie like a Roku. Yes, you need an internet connection of some sort to watch your shows. If your wireless Wi-Fi isn’t working, this thing isn’t going to work.

  • ShotTakers kyt🍭 (@ShotTakers) reported

    @Viki Roku support is doing more than you guys and I don’t even have a Roku! Your mobile app is broken acknowledge it please

  • bbcmoneynoluv chocolate latin (@bbcmoneynoluv) reported

    @iamdoechii Ran into an issue trying to show my other half your video on my logged in YouTube account on a Roku tv. Instead of your official Crazy video, Persuasive is being played. Just an heads up because you could be losing views and streams. I checked my phone and it's cool.

  • 6number6 The Prisoner (@6number6) reported

    @CathieDWood @ARKInvest How do you explain Roku? Others? You’re a disaster…. I’ve suffered my worst disaster with you since the tech crash of 2000-2. And this even though Tesla is way up. I wish I never heard of your fund. I’ll take the 33% that I have left and go elsewhere. Before I lose even that.

  • jprestonian Yeah. The End of History (@jprestonian) reported

    @tobymorton @MichaelLesser6 You might help them find that receipt, or remote for the Roku.

  • ma19k maliks fake twitte (@ma19k) reported
