    @PrachiR46315213 Mein kisi ko Kiu Roku I haven’t seen any post like that, and as I said, idc about Hania, diljit or the film. I found your statement to be dumb so that’s why I quoted your post, you should’ve been clearer about what you meant if you have a problem with me questioning it

    @MsSariBrooke @Roku I can’t work out how to watch it here in the UK 😩

    @gcanderson57 @PlutoTV @Roku I'm using a Hisense Roku TV and mine does the same thing you've mentioned. I pretty much did everything reopened the app, restarted the TV and neither of those things worked. Like I said it could be the app that's causing the problem.

    @MSNOWNews your channel on @Roku has not worked in two weeks. Every other channel works fine. It’s you. Maybe you can fix that ****?

    @hbomax @HBO please fix your @Roku app. I shouldn’t have to hunt for the show I’m trying to finish binging! Also “continue watching” doesn’t need to feed me the previous episode that I just finished #bemorelikenetflix

    Hey @comcast would you please fix your buggy Xfinity app on Roku? Volume issues have become unbearable the last six months.

  • a9ymous
    no, i don't think i will, thanks (@a9ymous) reported

    @Roku stop continually making the Live TV interface worse, it's one of the reasons we got this RokuTV (pause/rw terrestrial TV). and fix your subtitle support, constantly having to go back to the main menu and unselect/reselect Always On.

    @Roku hi, I live in the UK, I have a Roku streaming stick I bought in November 2025 from Tesco. I have had no problems with it until today. I am not able to use BBC iPlayer app. I have done all the resets but still not working. All other TV apps are ok ?

    @paramountplus @ufc is not working on any @Roku devices. Works perfectly on my iPhone. Figure it out! I’ve completed all troubleshooting possibilities.

    @Roku Roku refuses to let me login to my HBO Max account. Now HBO says email and password don’t look right. Yet when I use the Vizio remote, there’s no problem. 🤷🏼

    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.

  • Zaack23
    What good are notebooks? (@Zaack23) reported

    @LMDhusky2023 @discoveryplus @FIAWEC Discovery+ isn't stable on the Roku either. It simply does not adjust bandwidth ever; I proved it on the PC with some technicals and Discovery's answer was "use tethering on your PC to force it into mobile mode." Which a) won't work and b) what ********?

    @russ998 @Thrones_Facts I buy the cheapest Roku TV’s that Walmart/target sell in their respective sizes, and I did not have any issues seeing what was happening.

  • revscottd
    Scott (@revscottd) reported

    Our @Shentel internet has been out all day. That means no cable tv (because they stream it now), no phone (because our home phone relies on the internet) and @Roku tv’s have to have internet so the app to watch over the air antenna tv can work. 1/2

    @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!

    @YouTubeTV your @Roku app is awful and doesn’t work properly. Please fix or remove.

    @hulu_support Network error message. Streaming on @Roku TV. Settings indicate I’m connected with excellent signal strength.

    @Roku Hey folks, Roku will not help you if you are being scammed by a third party. Roku will take your money but will not interfere with a fraudulent scam.

    Hey @Roku and @prageru @DennisPrager - Did you know that apparently Roku is #blocking Prageru app? The app starts, but #anything you try watching crashes immediately and leaves you back at the main screen. Tried updating. Tried uninstall/ reinstall. Doesn't work!

    This is such an inconvenience especially for the money I paid. I contacted customer service so assistance only to be rerouted to get tech help with a fee. I googled if this was normal and there are SO many complaints about TCL Roku tvs blackscreening!

  • acaseofthetwit
    [a case of the blog] (@acaseofthetwit) reported

    I 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.

    @DisneyPlusUK hi there, is there still a problem with your systems? I tried for 4 hours to cancel my subscription and was sent in circles by @Roku and Disney. Eventually a member of staff on your online chat told me to try later because he couldn't get into the system.

    @Roku @FOXSports fix your app. I signed in 5 times and it’s not working.

    A lot of times when you sync up using activation Codes they let you choose your device, Roku or @amazonfiretv. That would help here! :) @Xfinity

    @Sling on @Roku Sling channels with scoreboard inset (e.g. ESPN), the Roku "*" function button does not work (to bring up menu to adjust brightness/other settings). Have to exit to a different channel before I can adjust settings. Is there a fix (or way to disable scoreboards)?

  • Witchmaster
    Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported

    @Roku @caseyrosewilson Latest update on Roku has brought on tons of issues. Can't remove finished listings from continue watching, completing episodes goes on to random programs, etc. And periodically it just resets itself. How about rolling back to stability?

  • CBW556
    Varsity 38 (@CBW556) reported

    And that turns CC ON for EVERYTHING. Switch from @DisneyPlus to @hulu ? Congratulations! CC. Because one had to turn on CC in the Roku TV settings instead of the show on @DisneyPlus Again, completely idiotic First World problem.
