    @TeamYouTube Thank you. Roku TV has latest update. Error message says “out of space…delete other apps.” But I can open all other apps with no issue. The only time the error message pops up is when I try to open YouTube or YouTube TV.

  • hulu_support Hulu Support (@hulu_support) reported

    @KarleneLyons19 If you're using a Roku device, you may be running into behavior that we're currently investigating. We don't have an ETA on a fix just yet, but we appreciate your patience in the meantime.

  • Domer2000 Domer2000 (@Domer2000) reported

    Holy Hell, the HBOMax app on Roku is a steaming pile of ****. It doesn't work! And their workarounds don't work! @hbomax #hbomaxsucks

  • thejoehenderson Joe Henderson (@thejoehenderson) reported

    Roku remotes really make you work for it.

  • CardenasOrg Melissa Cardenas (@CardenasOrg) reported

    @Roku My Spectrum app isn't working and won't accept my login credentials. Solutions?

  • SherryLynDeTata Sherry DeTata 🌷 (@SherryLynDeTata) reported

    @JeffKing64 I don’t have an issue navigating if my remote worked. I changed the batteries, nothing wrong with my Internet somehow the firestick is not communicating with TV. If I get a Amazon fire stick maybe that might help? ROKU was supposed to ship me a new remote. I unplugged firestick.

  • FuzzyDunlop32 SDOT (@FuzzyDunlop32) reported

    @DIRECTVhelp It’s obvious by all the comments something is wrong with the NFLST App. I’m using the app on Roku. What are you doing to fix this?

  • kitty_ell FINE I’ll put a pumpkin in my name 🎃 (@kitty_ell) reported

    My Hulu Roku app still crashes whenever I try to load something on ESPN+. Super not impressed fix this **** @hulu

  • DonnieBoston Donnie Boston (@DonnieBoston) reported

    @LocalNow I find this to be a very good app, however all of a sudden it has begun to crash periodically using my Roku Ultra. I rebooted Roku & uninstalled/re-installed it, too, and it still happens. Help please...

  • redheadedgolem R.H. Golem (@redheadedgolem) reported

    Live soccer on #Hulu crashes my #Roku … Luckily I have a Chromecast where it does NOT crash. #Doop

  • tarlbot Cameron Bales (@tarlbot) reported

    @rmondello Tcl. Try to find a newer google integrated one over a Roku one. Microchip shortage already a problem. Cheaper Sony would be my second choice. They might be easier to find.

  • studygrouptable 1Table&aStudyGroup (@studygrouptable) reported

    @fuboTV So I can’t watch World Series on @Roku because this particular game is 4K?! How can I watch? Are you serious? Please help.

  • hulu_support Hulu Support (@hulu_support) reported

    @ThatDad11 Apologies! Are you using a Roku by any chance? If so, we're looking into this. While we don't have an ETA on a fix, we want to assure you we're investigating. Thanks for your patience!

  • SusieToGo Susie To Go (@SusieToGo) reported

    So many things not working today- power goes out when I'm 3.6 miles into a 5 mile elliptical workout; the buttons on the washer get reset; the ipod won't sync; the Roku only turns on when I throw the remote against the wall.

  • BrianCadorette Brian Cadorette (@BrianCadorette) reported

    @hulu_support Still having issues with espn+ on roku devices? I still unable to stream live NHL games.

  • FuzzyDunlop32 SDOT (@FuzzyDunlop32) reported

    @DIRECTVhelp It’s standalone Roku app. It’s your app please fix it. Look at all the other comments and please stop treating these as one off issues.

  • SonoOto Mark Phillips (@SonoOto) reported

    @YouTubeTV when will 5.1 sound work with Chromecast w YTTV or Roku???

  • SherryLynDeTata Sherry DeTata 🌷 (@SherryLynDeTata) reported

    @JeffKing64 ROKU If shipping another remote and I’m not sure if it’s gonna work I have been waiting a week and I have for one.

  • djcapelis D J Capelis (@djcapelis) reported

    @rmondello I like TCLs for inexpensive and pretty fine, often without some of the worst smart features. (Then I connect an AppleTV to it to complete that story though honestly roku as is probably makes more sense for most people, if you can stomach the privacy story.)

  • jewlery18 Ziva Averbuch (@jewlery18) reported

    @sdarot_tv This is the error we get on Roku when attempting to us Sdarot via Roku: "Sorry, this channel is no longer in service". Can you pls advise how to fix it? Thank you!

  • ninacdot Nina Chantanapumma (@ninacdot) reported

    @Netflixhelps Been having video quality issues all night. Lots of buffering and very low quality stream. Tried Netflix app thru Apple TV and Roku. Internet is fine; other streaming apps aren't having quality problems.

  • __Deanne_ Deanne (@__Deanne_) reported

    @Digit__10 @hulu_support Glad it isn’t just me. The app in Roku would just shut down. Online, or phone no problem

  • ek_olson Lissabiss Blue 🌊🌊🌊🌊 (@ek_olson) reported

    Anyone else's Hulu Live repeatedly crashing on Roku? My Roku is pretty old but no other issues.

  • HollyGoLightlye Hollygolightlye (@HollyGoLightlye) reported

    @RokuSupport wish my roku would connect to the internet. Internet works on every other device in the house except the 2 rokus. Restarted, no updates and everything just no way to actually make it work. This might be the straw, I’m tired of dealing with this.

  • chagle77 We Must Be Better (@chagle77) reported

    @paramountplus I can't play a specific episode of Star Trek Voyager. S03 E04 - The Swarm. It fails to load on my LG TV, iOS, Roku, & Chrome browser. I've had no other issues with the previous episodes and the one right after is loading just fine. I'd rather not skip it tho.

  • hulu_support Hulu Support (@hulu_support) reported

    @Mr10Dall Sorry to hear about the trouble! If you're using a Roku device, you may be running into behavior that's currently under investigation. We don't have an ETA on a fix just yet, but we appreciate your patience in the meantime.

  • LynnEllison Lynn Ellison (@LynnEllison) reported from Irvine, California

    Hey, @hbomax - I’m trying to watch S2 of My Brilliant Friend finally, but I can’t turn the audio guide off. I’m watching on Roku TV. iPad app not affected. Help?

  • NurikoKojiro David S. (@NurikoKojiro) reported

    @hulu hulu crashing when I try to watch live. Roku tv is up to to date and so is hulu on it. Tried uninstalling, restarting roku, and reinstall channel but still not working. All other channels and regular hulu working. Only live is having issues, it was fine yesterday.

  • TeamYouTube TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) reported

    @mamads37 Appreciate the tag – have you tried updating your Roku to the latest firmware? They still have the ability to continue distributing both YouTube and YouTube TV apps to all existing customers to make sure you are not impacted. If you can see any error messages, let us know.

  • SherryLynDeTata Sherry DeTata 🌷 (@SherryLynDeTata) reported

    @JeffKing64 I don’t have an Amazon stick but I’m about ready to go buy one because my Roku is not working. Nothing changed.
