    @Roku ROKU got rid of their community support forum. Their TVs are now like the rest. When buying my next one, it will be which one has my apps and which one has the best price and picture quality. The support forum was a huge plus. Goodbye Roku.

    @Roku UPDATE: I was proven wrong! The Roku TV in question suffered from a software bug, one that the company is aware of and is in the process of fixing. A small number of TVs experienced the glitch, and the company is working to address it. Roku's terrific customer support restored my faith in the company, and I'm so glad we don't have to replace this TV!

    @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?

    @Roku @RokuSupport Awful... Absolutely god-awful

  • TucsonBlonde
    TucsonBlonde 🇺🇸💙🌊 (@TucsonBlonde) reported

    @Roku So about that redesign…how about you stop repopulating my Quick Access section with crap I don’t want/have after I’ve removed everything I don’t want or use? You’ve done it THREE TIMES NOW, and I don’t appreciate having my time wasted as I go back in and delete everything but my YouTube App, which is all that I use on this TV! section with yet more channels I have never used, and shoved YouTube back to the end, again. later. So how do I fix this PERMANENTLY? You can put whatever you want to after the YouTube app, but It’s MY interface, you give us the option to customize it, and while it’s not life ending to have to click several times to get to what took 2 clicks before, it’s very aggravating and I don’t appreciate the level of arrogance that a company displays when they undo the changes I made to shove stuff I don’t want down my throat. I’d appreciate a response, this is ludicrous. So please, help

    I need to get off of @Roku here in the US. Changing the home page was the last straw. Any suggestions for an alternative? I could use some help.

    @RaceCanada_ca @TSN_Sports @Roku (realistically, I'm guessing there was some kind of error and one that was actually expertly quickly fixed... but still, that damn near made my heart stop)

    @hbomaxhelp On @roku, can't get MTL-CAR hockey game. Erroneous message, "Event has ended". Have a fix?

    Hey @Hisense_USA @Roku, I bought a brand new 75" tv on july 5th and it's stuck in a boot loop out of the box. I've already tried every troubleshoot with support and emailed my receipt for escalation but now I'm being ghosted. Can someone actually help? Case # is S100002681

    @SomaKazima2 I’m ready to get rid of it anyway since the sound goes out a thousand times during a half hour show; and none of the ‘fixes’ work @Roku

    @Roku @meetatmidnights Doesn't work. All I get is the options to close or remove.

    @Roku Wow, those changes to the app are terrible! Thanks! 👍

    @Roku is not working this morning. Looks like it got hacked ? Anyone else ?

  • theDIYvillage
    Jacque and Matt (@theDIYvillage) reported

    @Roku Yeah, nope. Not being able to remove Live TV & Live TV Guide is a no go. Access to inappropriately aged content for kids is unacceptable. Money talks I suppose. Fix it.

  • bleezy_db
    mmmhmmm (@bleezy_db) reported

    @Roku Please fix the home screen. At least make it to to where we can land on the screen that allows us to see all of our apps on one page.

    @Roku fix your live tv displays. It shouldn’t be so hard to list what’s being shown when it’s supposed to be in constant rotation. I’m sick of seeing NO DATA AVAILABLE

    @enhanced_games @Roku @ResortsWorldLV Crazy that it took you until now to announce where you’ll be hosting the games. Terrible marketing.

  • EKershner
    Eric ✝️🇺🇸 (@EKershner) reported

    Hey @Roku. I had a device apparently fail. Bought a new streaming stick and there was nothing wrong with the device. Now I am thinking this is a "you" issue. Currently, I am unable to add the new device. In addition, I am able to log into my account via the Web but not the Android app.

  • rables73
    Rob Ables (@rables73) reported

    @MLB can you please fix your streaming app for @Roku and Apple TV so they don’t suck? EVERY SINGLE game I watch on ANY of my streaming devices stops at least 3-4 times per game with spinning circle of death. No other apps have buffering problems on my 1GB line and mesh WiFi.

  • PokeyTexan
    SlowdownMemes (@PokeyTexan) reported

    @YouTube please fix the Jump Forward feature on your @Roku app. I don’t care whose end of the tech it’s on. I pay for three YT Premium, so that my kiddos don’t infect my feed or complain about what each other watch. I’ve told them “ give it a few days to patch it”. It’s been hell

    @Roku It changed over today and it's absolutely terrible. Everything is all over the place and has messed up my apps and home screen. How do I change it back, cause I'm just getting rid of this TV and will avoid using Roku system and products. You know how to lose customers

  • CrucifiedAgape
    Jesus's Flunky (@CrucifiedAgape) reported

    Don't know whether it's my @TCL_USA @Roku TV or my @dish Hopper 3, but Lordy, I have to do a hard reboot on them nearly everyday to get them to work together.

    I see that @Roku did some post-audio work and looped over the F-Bomb in their promo.
