    @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

    @RepTheDMV @livenowfox Good eye. I am also terribly upset by the piss-poor quality of the breaks on the ROKU Channel. Chopped all to Hell! Does @Roku let AI run it's board? High-School rookies could do a better job!

    @Roku @Roku You guys make the shittiest ******* TVs I just bought this and all it does is glitch! Piece of ****!

    the new @roku layout is so bad that I delayed tuning into the #worldcup to fix it back after it got dumped on me.

    Hey @Roku, no one asked you to do up the home screen. I used to be able to have HDMI 1 and 2 in the top row and now I have to go into the inputs to select them. That's stupid bullshit. I want my old home screen back. Not this fkng mess. Fix this.

    @Roku Fix your ****!! Can’t watch a fn thing on your pos, can’t talk to anyone. Sick of your fn **** products. **** you

    @MatthewKeysLive @Roku Problem is... finding an actual "dumb tv" is almost impossible anymore. The business model for TV companies has shifted. They don't make $ when I buy the TV anymore.

  • largemarge707
    Mario Banda (@largemarge707) reported

    @Roku just got home from work, sat down to watch the game on Peacock. But guess what. Your stupid widget had the France Spain score displayed. One of the last few world cup matches left to watch and your stupid home screen ruined it for me🤬🤬🤬🤬

    This new @Roku Home Screen is awful! How can I opt out? Put it back , new upgrade is horrible.

    @Roku You should be concentrating on making your site work. The app doesn't work & your website doesn't work either

    @daisy_musician @paramountplus @Roku Paramount is the only one we had issues with. Appears it was a Walmart plus issue for us.

    @RokuSupport I need your help and please don’t give me an automated reply. The apps on my new @Roku TV keep crashing, mainly YouTube, Disney+ and Paramount+! What is causing this and what can I do to fox it?

  • yas6444
    Keny2 (@yas6444) reported

    @Roku POOR execution! great idea. I have many roku sound bars thinking they had all I want - WRONG! They all, within 9 months, have problems with: pairing to TVs, won't turn on TV or Roku box, sound crackles, Batteries drain FAST, etc. AND NO CUSTOMER SERVICE reply! don't buy...

  • cblanknyc
    Maya Belle (@cblanknyc) reported

    @Roku But no help with unauthorized payments? I was charged nearly $270. Can’t you do better than a one month refund? Please?

  • OhioBrian
    Brian Hoyt (@OhioBrian) reported

    Who else is having serious lag and spooling on @YouTubeTV tonight on @Roku. No other streaming services have issues. Yes, I have restarted the app and the whole #Roku This seems to happening more and more. The service was more reliable before they started jacking up prices

  • atveusa
    Atul K. Verma (@atveusa) reported

    @Roku your streaming stick is not working and I can’t find a way to return it. Your support page is asking to speak with someone but the number is not connecting. Not a good support model I see

  • mrhappybw
    Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reported

    It took until July for me to get this “New” Roku Home Screen and it is awful. And reading the comments since @Roku rolled it out seems it has been awful for a month now. A two year could have done better. Reverse this ****.

  • 80sBoxing
    1980s Boxing (@80sBoxing) reported

    @Roku It's awful. More clutter I do not need and I need to click down just to get to all of my apps. Simple and streamlined is always better. Why are you trying to fix things that aren't broken?
