  • Cthulu201 𝕮𝖙𝖍𝖚𝖑𝖚201 (@Cthulu201) reported

    Can't watch it on my Roku or via the @ESPNPlus app because the caching is horrendous. I don't expect this low quality service from a multi-billion dollar company. Can't take screenshots of the crap app. WTF?!

  • RealJawnn ******* scout (@RealJawnn) reported

  • wifeguyism 🕊 (@wifeguyism) reported

    it’s currently 12:40 and my roku is set to automatically recognize my time zone and adjust accordingly but it says it’s 1:24 and idk how to fix it 😭

  • iMikeABQ Mike in ABQ (@iMikeABQ) reported

    @RokuSupport Roku had been going downhill fast. YouTube app just doesn't work anymore, won't load and channels that do load are so slow. I used to like Roku, but I think it's time to dump them.

  • justsaynotogods Half of a Heart (@justsaynotogods) reported

    Dear @adultswim Fix your ****. If I cant stream rick and morty on my roku box your app is useless. Nobody is using satellite/cable tv anymore. Get with the ******* program. Either charge for a subscription or take down your **** app. #humansarestupid #weredoomed

  • ntwanano Ntwanano (@ntwanano) reported

    @Bobbytainment @arinao_m @DStv ma man!!! now that we got that out the way. Get Roku Stick. Only issue i have is not getting Prime App for some reason.

  • TeamYouTube TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) reported

    @nferg18 Jumping in – we've seen similar reports of being unable to open YouTube on Roku TV and we're working on a fix. Appreciate your patience in the meantime.

  • ryan_watt Ryan Watt (@ryan_watt) reported

    @MikeSaulters It’s so annoying. I’ve got roku on a Sharp. If I want to actually watch without problems I have to use my laptop

  • MikeSaulters Michael Saulters (@MikeSaulters) reported

    @ryan_watt I have major issues with HBO Max on both Roku and on PlayStation and on my Samsung TV.

  • TeamYouTube TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) reported

    @BReimer32 We've seen similar reports about issues on the YouTube app on Roku devices, and we're working on a fix. Appreciate your patience in the meantime.

  • ryan_watt Ryan Watt (@ryan_watt) reported

    Does anyone else have major issues tech issues using HBOMax on roku?

  • NatalieDeleary Natalie De Leary (@NatalieDeleary) reported

    Zach: if this Roku doesn't work, you're gonna have to come up with something to do. Me: we could just stare at each other. Zach: .........oh thank God it's working.

  • jestersvengence Jestersvengence (@jestersvengence) reported

    @britttanyzimm @Roku @amazon It could just be a bad component the only thing you can try is the wps button on your router. If you have changed passwords since you used it last that could be an easy fix.

  • homer56k homer-56k (@homer56k) reported

    @Roku when are you going to fix the glitchiness of Roku Private Listening or begin adding full Bluetooth audio support for your streaming devices, bypassing smartphones for audio?

  • joshuaapease Love, Joshua (@joshuaapease) reported

    Anyone else's @Roku been having issues with their time? I've had to reset it twice in one day. This is going to become annoying if it continues on.

  • javiciastanatic 𝓓𝓔𝓜𝓞𝓝𝓓😤😩 #NaomiDeservesBetter (@javiciastanatic) reported

    checked to see if my LAN cable was all the way plugged in and it was so yep servers are down😩 so glad I have Roku for streaming apps

  • technogaijin Techno Gaijin (@technogaijin) reported

    @sherman4949 Roku is garbage unless you're a lowest-common denominator streamer happy with Walmart performance. They're always breaking advanced features and not bothering to fix them. We went Roku->Shield->Apple TV. Apple TV is way better than the other two if you're into HDR and tech.

  • Onnamatopoeia Onnamatopoeia (@Onnamatopoeia) reported

    TNT is not working on Roku. Roku is trash.

  • canadayC0 Eileen C (@canadayC0) reported

    @rcn400 Antennas don't work in my area so I have a Roku stick and Fubo. I already had Netflix. I'm paying about $35 a month less for more channels than what I had with direct tv.

  • ccrosby006 chris crosby (@ccrosby006) reported

    @camstradamus @hbomax Constantly. Do you use appletv to watch? @TheCMee23 says he has no issues on roku

  • jugglerchris Chris Emerson (@jugglerchris) reported

    @therealjpster My biggest annoyance about the Roku YouTube app is that it doesn't do double speed playback. But not sure if that's a Roku limitation or YouTube. :-) (Disclosure: I now work for Roku. I could probably find out. )

  • wifeguyism 🕊 (@wifeguyism) reported

    abt to fully throw my roku out the window not only was the time completely wrong despite the right time zone (system reboot fixed it Finally) but goddamn youtube won’t work no matter what “”solution”” i try and now i can’t get any sleep sounds to work i’m gonna start biting ppl

  • bleachedclaire claire (@bleachedclaire) reported

    sometimes getting a roku remote to work feels like climbing a mountain

  • britttanyzimm brittany ⭐️⭐️💙👑 (@britttanyzimm) reported

    @jestersvengence @Roku @amazon It’s just frustrating because absolutely nothing changed. It just stopped connecting to our WiFi… which has no issues with any other device in the house 🙃

  • Cruz0881 Andy Cruz (@Cruz0881) reported

    So @youtube on @Roku is STILL not working

  • inar inar (@inar) reported

    @DustyW88 @Roku This just happened on my Roku TV. Uninstall and reinstall didn't work. I had to check for system update and it said it was updating them app.
