-
1980s Boxing (@80sBoxing) reported@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?
-
NorthRoad Creations (@northroadcreate) reportedWhy isn’t @AppleTV working on @Roku since whatever stupid Roku redesign/update they did? By the way Roku, no one asked for that nonsense. Leave things alone when they work!
-
FrancisCOM. (@fmarqueze) reported@roku now it turns out that if I don't have internet I can't watch broadcast TV. What a terrible system, I'll never buy a TV with Roku again.
-
steve (@steve48717445) reported@Hisense_USA @Roku Apps will just crash. Don’t get a Hisense. I have to get a new tv
-
USmileIClick (@USmileIClick1) reportedFinally, @Roku My mother has limited vision. When you force changes to your UI, like putting things in “quick access” you add unnecessary frustration for her and me, because I have to come fix it. Think about your users and not you pocket book or your crappy 20 YO UI devs.
-
Lt. Broccoli - Parody 🥦 🇺🇸 🇺🇦 🇵🇸 (@Tommy2legs) reported@Roku fix everything about the new OS! I mean why is the only option on quick access to remove something!? Why can't they be moved? What the heck!?
-
Jinxsyns (@Jinxsyns) reportedThis is why I'm so pissed at @Roku and one of the examples i gave in my posts another multi billion dollar company that somehow can't get a website to work right yet has millions in testing hardware or at least millions available to test the site before rollout but thats too hard
-
tac0ghost 👻🇺🇲👻 (@tacooghost) reported@Morticia121212 @Roku The Roku sub shouldn't matter. Seems like an issue on their side.
-
Democracy (@WambliTatanka) reportedI paid for @hbo through November and im not granted access saying I need to pay again. And your support feature doesn’t work!! What the actual F?! @Roku @TheRokuChannel
-
alex (@alexsears97) reported@FehInsane @Roku Happening to me too. This update was terrible
-
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
-
Morticia (@Morticia121212) reported@tacooghost @Roku I've seen where others have watched the episode already. I was thinking it was a problem with the subscription through Roku TV that was the problem.
-
George H Frost III (@ghfrost3) reported@Roku you are a rip off. Customer service is bullshit take my money and when you can’t make it work refuse a refund. Well **** you. Back to cable
-
TheBarbequePit (@BarbequePit) reportedStill no help on this btw @Roku
-
SportsTurfPro (@sportsturfpro) reported.@NFL @Roku app is repeatedly crashing this morning. HELP! 🏈
-
Woman Outside The Matrix (@CyberRodeoGal) reported@downdetector around 20 aps not working on @Roku that’s just my personal ones. :/
-
HockeyDad2A&Z (@HockeyDad2AandZ) reportedHey @Roku, no one asked you to do up the home screen. I used to be able to have HDMI 1 and 2 in the top row and now I have to go into the inputs to select them. That's stupid bullshit. I want my old home screen back. Not this fkng mess. Fix this.
-
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
-
@Quendrith (@realQuendrith) reported@ParisHilton @Roku @DEADLINE Typos above, sorry, long day working… back channel reporting was the chase and follow type (refused that line of work, also turned down National Enquirer ps.) — point being, it was hellish trying to stay true to journalism while being groomed and encouraged to write trash then.
-
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
-
Travis Lausch (@lauscho1) reported@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)
-
Henhouse henry (@Henrywelch63) reportedHey @Roku I not happy right now! Tried to get an issue settled, and your AI assistant was no help. Tried to call corporate customer service, it said I might not even get a call back! REALLY!!!
-
Cricket (@horseful) reported@Roku what the hell is the point of the 'continue watching' list when you back up my video by 25 minutes????!!!!!!! FIX THAT. THERE'S ENOUGH STUPID **** IN MY LIFE ALREADY.😡😡😡😡
-
Deen Bowden (@deenbodeen) reportedHey @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
-
The TV Answer Man: Making Television Easy Again. (@TVForSeniors) reported@MatthewKeysLive @Roku Most TVs today are purposely not built to last. The industry decided long ago to stress quantity over quality.
-
Johnny Ryall (@FunkyBoss_) reported@amazonfiretv the new update is terrible. Fix this please before many of us switch to another streaming service. @Roku
-
Jinxsyns (@Jinxsyns) reportedSo what absolute ******* retard at @Roku decided that when adding a remote THE ******* BACK, HOME, AND ******* APP BUTTONS DON'T BRING YOU BACK TO THE HOME SCREEN OH AND BEST PART IT DOESNT SAY THIS SO I SAT HERE HITTING EVERY ******* BUTTON BUT THE LEFT BUTTON TO GET IT TO WORK
-
Jinxsyns (@Jinxsyns) reported@BlueMoon_Mining @Roku Right! Besides whatever nonsense it's talking about titles this is the other reason im so angry 20 billion dollar company 450 ******* PEOPLE THEY EMPLOY THAT AT LEAST 1 OF THEM COULD ******* FIX THESE BUGS
-
Smigman (@Smigman1) reported@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.
-
Tom Foolery (@1nject0rX) reportedThank you @Roku I've been paying $70 a month to @DIRECTV for the exact same channels as you all and you have way less commercials and better quality. Thank GOD I found Roku
