Roku Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Apocalyptee Apocalyptee (@Apocalyptee) reported

    @startthemachine The only problem I've noticed is a profound, almost intentional, lack of UI geared towards keeping your watchlist handy. Using a Roku. What's been bugging you?

  • kaitynjojomom ColoradoMom (@kaitynjojomom) reported

    @5BellaKnack19 I had issues with hbomax on my roku. It makes no sense! Why don’t they work harder to make these apps more accessible?

  • SonOfSuns1 SonOfSuns 🧢 (@SonOfSuns1) reported

    @DIRECTV Your @tntdrama app for Roku is atrocious. I want to watch @AEW and it's a struggle every single week. Please fix this.

  • jaythomps J.T. (@jaythomps) reported

    @ItsOnATT what can be done about the audio issues that I am experiencing with your app on Roku? Audio skips about every 5 seconds.

  • chmajam carlos (@chmajam) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp it’s on my roku stick the audio is delayed. i played it on my phone and the audio was fine, rush hour 2 was the only one with audio issues

  • RudineAdiaM Ru. (@RudineAdiaM) reported

    Sometimes my @peacockTV for Roku app just decides I'm done watching it. ...and ya know what? Thank you to that glitch because yes I have been watching snapped on a loop for 10 days and need to get my life back.

  • CGoule Chandler Goule (@CGoule) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @hbomax I have reset my router, unplugged my Roku TV, preformed a WiFI analysis and everything works great. Your streaming App doesn’t buffer right or something and resets my TV to menu mid show every time. Out of all the streaming Apps only yours does this. How do I fix it?

  • Ika_BakaKu ✨Ika BakaKu (@Ika_BakaKu) reported

    @BloodEagle_Ent @Roku They hacker changed the account to a singapore location, the name was set to John Razer and Razer . com lol address was set to address PO BOX SUIT number country state zip code... And me like... None of you ***** saw that as ODD to help me recover my account? DUMB *****

  • cristinellalove Cristinella Bella (@cristinellalove) reported

    Work from home meant a job in the company. It did not mean the same position I left. I could have done a talk show on ROKU. I did a Proof of Concept and everything.

  • JJKelevra Jordan “Perfidious Albion” Justice 🏴 (@JJKelevra) reported

    @startthemachine It’s really stable on my iPhone unusable on my Roku.

  • YeetPolicia GM-Eazy (@YeetPolicia) reported

    @Roku @YouTube for SURE don't advertise "live streaming sports if you're gonna completely crash 15 minutes into the #EURO2020 semifinals. Ps- **** you

  • Ika_BakaKu ✨Ika BakaKu (@Ika_BakaKu) reported

    @BloodEagle_Ent @Roku Da ***? With how ppl hack in this generation, anyone can hack through passwords even if you have GOOD ones, hell some can hack through 2fa now... This is a joke if I ever heard it! I had an issue with Razer other month about deleting / recovery of my account 1/2

  • ChrisCinciBiz Chris Wetterich (@ChrisCinciBiz) reported

    Who did the tech on @hbomax? Holy cow is it awful. Every day for the last four, I’ve tried to watch something on Roku and it gives me the three dots of death before crapping out and sending me back to the Roku home screen. No other channel’s app does this.

  • Ika_BakaKu ✨Ika BakaKu (@Ika_BakaKu) reported

    @BloodEagle_Ent @Roku They hacker changed the account to a singapore location, the name was set to John Razer and Razer . com lol address was set to address PO BOX SUIT number country state zip code...

  • FinanceHomerun HomerunFinance (@FinanceHomerun) reported

    @EvilJoeyVotto Like the ballys sports app on roku is terrible

  • ___princessrai SHAR🦋🖤 (@___princessrai) reported

    Anybody that has a Roku tv are most off y’all apps not working like Netflix or hbo max or is it just mines😒

  • wsk28rules Dave (@wsk28rules) reported

    @SamsungTV Curious to know why your smart TV’s have such an issue streaming my YouTube TV? @YouTubeTV works great on my Sharp smart TV and the Roku boxes but your smart TV it’s horrible. Why is that?

  • tashylaa_ Tsmoove 🥵 (@tashylaa_) reported

    I literally have not been able to find my Roku remote in daysss and my lil app not working

  • HillsbergJeremy Jeremy Hillsberg 💸 (@HillsbergJeremy) reported

    I swear this @TCL_USA @Roku TV is the worst tv ive ever had

  • dustinbrown Dustin with prep time (@dustinbrown) reported

    Why is the Amazon @PrimeVideo UX so awful on @Roku TV’s? Who’s to blame for the app on Roku OS, Amazon or Roku? It’s so much better on iOS.

  • MyBeautyIs_REAL 12/14 💛 (@MyBeautyIs_REAL) reported

    @hbomax My subscription isn’t working on my phone or Roku TV and I just paid my money! Can somebody please fix this

  • stefanlubinski Stefan Lubinski (@stefanlubinski) reported

    Anyone else experiencing serious technical issues with #HBOMAX on @Roku ?

  • MVBramley M.V.B. (@MVBramley) reported

    @thecorlew @startthemachine Yeah, we watch it on Roku all the time and it runs a shitload better than Netflix (which is awful). I used an Amazon stick before and it worked on there too.

  • aston_adam Adam Aston (@aston_adam) reported

    @HannahVaughan91 @itvhub @AppleTV It’s utter crap, Hannah. I ended up buying a Roku box to plug in, so at least I can now steam from their itv app - the luxury! (Albeit in absolutely dreadful quality…) ITV are way off the mark in this field.

  • ChrisChagdes S.CHAGDEEEEZ (@ChrisChagdes) reported

    @slinganswers @Donny2Trill Can you fix the issue where the roku app keeps starting channels at the beginning and saying they are live with no way to actually fast forward.

  • MrVito316 Shawn R (@MrVito316) reported

    @RokuSupport could you guys help me with my remote for my Roku player ???

  • bbbtmenw Mark (@bbbtmenw) reported

    @kaitynjojomom @5BellaKnack19 Paramount app took so long to switch from All/Access and be usable. I had to reset my Roku a few times for it. Is their a way to reset or ask for an update on the tv? It may help. I always think forcing an update gets it to "wake up" and finish.

  • cristinellalove Cristinella Bella (@cristinellalove) reported

    Why would I pay @roku / @walmart to start my own television channel when I was an employee, and they could have offered me that option as a work from home option instead of terminating my employment ?

  • PsykoRobot PsykoRobot (@PsykoRobot) reported

    @RJStahelski @JoeMerrick Roku is not rendering a game just outputting video. If you want to just watch/stream 4K videos then yes possible. A 4K capable GPU does a lot of work that generates a lot of heat. Let's not forget a PS5 is about 60% heat sink (that is going to be a big dock). Plus other issues

  • DonMiller011 Don Miller (@DonMiller011) reported

    @Roku ABC has an echo on both of my Roku devices; even during commercials. There's way of getting help on their app for this? Very disappointed!
