Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Adam Billiot (@Adamisradd) reported@NFL Doesn't even work on roku 👎 I don't understand how there isn't just a service to pay say $70+ to watch any game you want. Missing out on ungodly amounts of money and giving fans what they really want.
-
Tony Pellitteri (@JDIMSTR09) reported.@hbomax Trying to watch your shows is very difficult on my roku. I watch between phone calls at work and have to pause when taking a call. Every time I pause for a while it either jumps ahead or jumps back several minutes and I have to find where I was.. Any fix for that?
-
brandonyost (@brandonyost) reported from Queen Creek, Arizona@BroncoRob @JBFlint The prime app has a stream option so as long as you have a smart tv, or Apple TV, or chrome cast, or Roku, etc shouldn’t be an issue
-
🌻 sassy-redhead-says-what? 🐞🦉🦋 (@redheadb3) reported@Roku Just got word that my company channel will be deleted because of older formatting techniques? I’ll do what I have to, but will it take me three weeks learning the new channel provider? Help!
-
Kevin Childress (@KevinCh72567534) reported@FivePointsVids Roku is awful. It crashes multiple times every day.
-
Mockingbird, MPH, CHES (@amockingbird) reported@ShelleyElwood @ClownShoesPpl I can’t remember how I fixed it on my parents roku tv, I did get it to work. We have those as Amazon channels so that lets us have profiles, but either my mom logs into mine or it bleeds over, bc I still find her shows in my “continue watching.”
-
Joe McCorkel (G00se) (@jmccorkel) reported@BallySportWI Problems have gotten substantially worse. App does not work on Fire TV or Roku, and freezing/stuttering constantly on browser/pc. Isn't internet related.
-
Ant Murdering She Devil (@ShelleyElwood) reported@amockingbird @ClownShoesPpl I have a Roku tv so those are not options. I tried what I think are equivalents and it didn't help at all, but I will futz with it tomorrow
-
Ant Murdering She Devil (@ShelleyElwood) reportedDamnit, I spent the money on a month of Apple+ because I love Central Park and want to support it but I forgot how absolutely ****** A+ runs on Roku, the audio cuts out every 10 seconds which is KIND OF A PROBLEM
-
🦬thee agnes de buffle🦬 (@vanadiumzest) reported@LeciaMichelle11 i see lots of people recommending roku. i don’t want to be a harbinger of doom, but i’ve always used a roku stick with these tvs and my old LG also stopped supporting my roku. for me, roku didn’t solve the tv problem. but i love + support roku in general.

-
Kiel Goldych (HighVoltage103) (@HighVoltage103) reported@Roku You need to fix the schedule for Impossible. You keep repeating season one episodes.
-
Billy (@BJames1969) reported@XBOXimp8783 @NailsAndNY Very dependent on your device. I’ve had zero issues on Roku but lately I go to the movie theater. Overall better experience and 1/2 the price.
-
Marty (@Helmet165) reported@WSJ @hbomax is hands down the worst streaming app. Even on my brand new Roku ultra it crashes regularly and is unbelievably slow.
-
GbvsBy (@gbvsby) reported@DAZN_CA @Roku hey, got charged $65 for the canelo fight when I resubscribed for football season. love canelo but I work weekend nights so I won't be able to watch it. can't find a customer service number but would love to cancel
-
JRWATJE (@jrwatje) reported@MeatSauce1 Get it working?? Or still having issues??? I use a Roku stick. After a little bit it's quite easy. 👍🏻👍🏻
-
Rob Yancy 🇺🇸 (@Blink8533) reported@AppleTV nothing works on this garbage service, Roku, broken, LG TV, broken! Android box, broken, you make trash software @Apple
-
Steve Asche (@steveasche) reported@MeatSauce1 My son was having trouble last night too using Roku Tv and also on his PC. No idea what the issue is, but it worked fine for me using a Roku stick and he was using the same credentials as me. Weird.
-
Mockingbird, MPH, CHES (@amockingbird) reported@ShelleyElwood @ClownShoesPpl My tv is from like 2013, roku is several years old, neither fancy, use wifi. I did something to the audio settings and never had problems with Apple again, other than it having no separate user things so if mom’s already watched an episode I can’t find it.
-
Witness🐝 (@WitnessGungame) reported@RealBackWoods Roku is a competitor to Twitch, so they do not have their applications on their products. If you had TTV before like 2016 on your TV it would work :/ I’ve tried hard to get it
-
Ashanti Panagea (@ash_nt1) reported@roku pay me for exposing me naked without consent form @crump they need to pay us I'll settle for 5 million no consent form exposing me I'm homeless in Raleigh n.c. not at my expense my ex got me here and left me. @moriahmillsss help me pay you.
