-
Patsy Stone (@ItIsPatsyStone) reported@Roku You should be concentrating on making your site work. The app doesn't work & your website doesn't work either
-
TheBarbequePit (@BarbequePit) reportedStill no help on this btw @Roku
-
Maureen Imrie (@maureenmcmahon8) reportedThis new @Roku Home Screen is awful! How can I opt out? Put it back , new upgrade is horrible.
-
Unapologetic Deplorable (@Squirdlok) reported@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!
-
Inigo Montoya (@Dukefan11) reported@Roku I'm a minimalist. On the home screen, your recent update added several items such as "the best across your streaming services" row, "jump to" row & an add apps button. The screen now feels very cluttered. Please help me hide these. ChatGPT says it cant be done.
-
Wicked King (@StangXx) reported@Roku I know my internet is down right now, but why doesn't my "live tv" app work during this? I can watch the thumbnail and TV is working, but I'm stuck on that channel cuz the app itself won't load and allow me to change the channel. This is absurd
-
𝐌𝐫𝐃𝐫 𝑺𝒂𝒈𝑫𝒆𝒄𝑾𝒉𝒐 (@SagDecWho) reported@ThePriorityPod @Roku I can view my ROKU camera live but the events give errors and won't show In other apps, after a few hours it goes back to the home screen. They really screwed up all the devices apparently
-
Andrew Staten (@AndrewStaten) reported@TCL_USA @Roku So, is there really no way to go back to the old home screen UI? I don't get why companies feel the need to change things that aren't broken. More often than not, they get worse with new UIs.
-
LG (@lisagrim2002) reported@Roku I have Backdrops set to start after 1 min of inactivity. It never starts on its own. I never had this issue with the photo streams app. It always started reliably. I've looked online for trouble shooting (like start it manually) then it might work once but not anymore
-
UnfinishedOwl (@UnfinishedOwl) reportedman, @Roku has absolutely destroyed my TV. almost totally unusable
-
Qhu✳️🦆🏃♂️ (@Qhu_NFT) reportedI have had it with @Amazon Fire Stick. I have a subscription to Shudder and Starz. I can no longer play them without buying a new subscription thru Amazon. I have a @Roku TV upstairs and have no issues playing my subscriptions. Today I ordered another Roku controller for downstairs. Shame on you Amazon. Bye fire stick. Just warning anyone who is thinking about fire stick.
-
Heather Larson 955,703 (@WriterHeatherL) reported@SaThomas__ I get it with every “smart” tv. Roku, Google, the Amazon thing… they all stink. Same class. All annoying. @Roku is no different to me. I had no problems with OTA tv, js
-
Al Grendh (@algrendh) reported@Roku this hdcp error is fcking annoying. can't you fix this 💩??
-
Brian🇺🇸 (@BRH1776) reported@Roku I’m trying to cancel my subscription to @AngelStudiosInc every time I try to, tells me I got no subscriptions with you. I got a few. Angel says I can’t cancel because I gotta go through yall. Help.
-
🌪Jeff Schipull🦌 (@ojkoj) reported@Roku And like… if i reset the tv itll work sometimes, but its a big hassle, and after troubleshooting it appears to be a software issue with the update.
-
Nick Boonstra (@ARealBoon) reported@paramountplus @Roku @RokuSupport Paramount Plus support already told me they can't help, I just paid for a subscription and it won't connect
-
Ken Hudson (@shareastronomy) reportedI 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.
-
Morticia (@Morticia121212) reported@tacooghost @Roku Well, they still never fixed it. It's a problem with the Roku TV version, I'm pretty sure. I went & got the free trial at Amazon video & it is on there! Yay!
-
Lonell Fletcher III (@iii_lonell) reportedIs anyone else having issues with @Roku ‘s app?
-
Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reported@BrianKemm @Roku Mine is the hdmi ports are corrupted and it is for sure on them as I tried different cable even used a different TV and no issue. If I unplug cables and do an audio/visual reset it will “fix” it for a day then it comes back. It is listed as known issue since update.
-
ky baby (@__kbolaydiggs__) reported@Roku might be the worst TV brand ever. Remotes never work, when you try to use a mobile remote it can never connect to the TV.. Let’s get it together.
-
alex (@alexsears97) reported@Roku This new update is TERRIBLE. Half of my apps are gone from my Home Screen and it's such a pain to find them again. Fire whoever thought of this
-
Stella Sassier (@stella_sassier) reported@Roku for the love of GOD STOP CHANGING OUR HOME MENUS AND SETTINGS I did not need every single one of my tv input options forced into my app section with no way of removing them Your “help” is not appreciated
-
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.
-
𝕏༄༂PureBlood༂࿐𝕏 (@MAGALaura818) reported@Roku I HATE THIS NEW HOME SCREEN! IT'S TERRIBLE! CHANGE IT BACK!
-
Reality Bites (@realitybites_11) reported@Roku @RokuSupport your product is becoming unusable. Constantly unpairing the remote after exiting an app.
-
Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reported@Roku Man, this update totally screwed up my TV when it finally landed on my TV, the hdmi inputs keep screwing up for the cable box, isnt the cable or box because they work fine on other TV’s. Dog **** new home screen and this issue make me never want another one from y’all.
-
DenyTheMarkClub™ (@DenyTheMarkClub) reported@Roku tv is by far the WORST! They are unstable and CANNOT manage their Products...I want my money back on this JUNK!!! (NOTE to self: Buy ANY product other than ROKU)
-
call it ump (@playball8000) reported@Roku @ASStrogurl24 @Roku you all need to work with charter spectrum on the spectrum app because it has lots of glitches. There's not an app that glitches anywhere close to the spectrum app. FYI
-
Maureen Imrie (@maureenmcmahon8) reported@Roku I hate it and will replace and purchase a non Rolu. New screen is awful!
