    @rumblevideo Now fix it to where we can "like" vids on Roku tv and have video windows to ff or rwd to a spot in the video we're watching.

  • SoBChef1 SoBChef (@SoBChef1) reported

    @Kevin_Kinkead I hate that I can't scan the QR to sign in on my Roku from my Android device. It's telling me I need to upgrade my iOS. What exactly makes this Kool Aid so goddamned tasty anyway?

  • CrystalG413 Crystal 🖕 (@CrystalG413) reported

    @Star2flyLuv @BaddiesOnZeus I got Roku tv and two Roku box's didn't get it till today so I'm rewatching it cuz the first time i had to screen share thru my cell and quality was ***

  • gcanderson57 Glenn 🇺🇲⚓️ (@gcanderson57) reported

    @samphipps17 The ROKU comes with an HDMI cable, but it's a short one. If need longer 2ft then buy one at 5Below, on Amazon or at Walmart. You don't need a $30 dollar cable. Like I said if have problems let me know & can talk about it through DMs. The instructions are easy.

  • johnnyrayfire Rusty Schmeckleford (@johnnyrayfire) reported

    Somehow there is a glitch in my Roku TV in my bedroom/office/den/cave hole space. I had a free trial of a service, rhymes with shmaramount+, every other tv says “you are not subscribed” Mine works. If you try to watch a sub-channel, showtime etc., it cannot verify subscription

  • ashubert A Shubert (@ashubert) reported

    @RokuSupport, Roku app (iPhone) is a disaster. Crash & crash. On Private listening, OFTEN a drift between audio/video & then it will crash. Or it will just crash. Also reports not on wifi when u are & though u still have audio thru app. Deleted/reinstalled app. iOS 16.3 (20D47)

    @realDailyWire won't loan on my @Roku any more? Is this an issue with #Roku across the board? #dailywire

  • BreatheHellstar 🏜️ (@BreatheHellstar) reported

    Not sure if I should be ashamed of myself or proud that my 13 month old can work the Roku remote.. 🙊

  • KatGoneGamer Kat (@KatGoneGamer) reported

    Gotta love that the Crave app crashed my XSX 3 times tonight. Worked fine when I used it earlier but when I put on the last of us it froze my console. Tried it on the roku TV app and it rebooted my TV. It's 2023. A STREAMING APP shouldn't crash a gaming console. @CraveCanada

  • Stacy30469 Stacy Lee (@Stacy30469) reported

    @SalamSaladin @Ask_Spectrum There's no competition so they know they don't have to. It's disgusting I just bought the Roku time to get rid of spectrum. If it's not an outage, my channels don't work, or they pixelate. Even when I DVR a show it pixelates and jumps past most of the show so an hr show is 25min

  • SK29Rin Rin (@SK29Rin) reported

    @rokusketch Roku help...She is staring into my soul with that smug face...

  • JamieClayz Dr. Jamie Claye (@JamieClayz) reported

    @DJSnM The problem as I see it with long videos on Twitter, the audience isn't looking for it or will be willing to sit through it at a browser. I guess if Twitter develops a Roku app, that might change.

  • nealaa nealaa (@nealaa) reported

    @CBS can you PLEASE update your CBS Roku app? It still doesn’t work. Your app is the only one that feels like the developers don’t care about your users.

  • philoTV Philo (@philoTV) reported

    @DcatBry We're aware of this saving issue affecting Roku users and we apologize for the inconvenience! A software update will be released soon to address this issue. For now, you can still save (+) programs when searching for the title using the Search Tool.

  • wolverine66 Wolvie (@wolverine66) reported

    @robcwv @jim4wvu The problem I have with the Roku apps is that I have to re-sign in to multiple times a month. It’s a minor inconvenience, but it has caused my wife to stop using it because she doesn’t know all the passwords

  • robcwv Rob Cornelius (@robcwv) reported from Parkersburg, West Virginia

    @wolverine66 @jim4wvu Your issues are likely resident to your apps. All 3 of our Roku sets have generally held passwords longer term, except for a couple apps that routinely need re-entered often. Willing to bet those are a feature of providers not wanting stuff left open on a bunch of devices at once

  • DocSusan10 Doc Susan (@DocSusan10) reported

    @hulu_support your company lies about the Disney+ bundles it offers and doesn’t want to fix the Roku technical problem; instead invited people to pay more $$ instead of fixing it.

  • ZIGGYGNARDUST Zigmond Coffey (@ZIGGYGNARDUST) reported

    I almost brought my Roku remote to work today on accident

  • JimmyDetroit1 Jimmy Detroit (@JimmyDetroit1) reported

    @BadgrGrl21 @Shudder I had a problem last night where the channel would close about 15-20 seconds after I started playing something. Haven't tried that yet. I'm also on Roku.

  • enlightnup MLBTrump (@enlightnup) reported

    @Roku OMGoodness! I am a total #ROKU affectionado! All 3 TVs give as gifts and I MUST SAY… WTH happened with this new revision appearing on my screen! It is a DISASTER! Too small font, bad bad colors, busy screen, awful, ugly colors …. no No No Please I hope you hear from many

  • taiionz eri / enni 🪷 gfm in bio (@taiionz) reported

    the netflix roku app is **** it's so broken

  • purple7gurl Nan S.N. (@purple7gurl) reported

    Watching #Karatekid for the 100th time. Problem is I am living in a hotel because of a house fire & have no #Roku. I miss #CobraKai big time!

    @Roku @RokuSupport ME Tv Spectrum App Sound Going Out I let Them Know now You Channel 194 Fix

  • Melanbunny Millie M (@Melanbunny) reported

    @RokuSupport I’m trying to watch the Great British baking show using the Roku app on a Samsung tv. it‘s getting stuck on an ad—the ad plays, then it goes to a blank screen. I can’t get past the ad to watch the rest of the show. Please help! Thanks.

  • s0upunlimited gil ! (@s0upunlimited) reported

    i must confess there is something quite nice about quarantining in a tiny little room with a kitty and a roku and a tiny amount of work to do

  • shannakelly_19 Shanna Kelly (@shannakelly_19) reported from Boston, Massachusetts

    Still sad that I couldn’t watch the @RecordingAcad #GRAMMYs because my Roku kept saying error loading on CBS.😢🎶🏆

  • EvilWilma Evil Wilma ♂️♋️↗️Now triple yassified! (@EvilWilma) reported

    @kornbreadTMFS Ooooh this would make me mad. I watch a lot of foreign-language stuff when I don't know the language at all. It's *possible* that the Apple thingy just needs a reboot. I've had issues with CC on our Roku before and restarting the whole thing fixed it.

  • pineinmind agent pine (@pineinmind) reported

    @Roku this is an awful offer

  • FritoBanditoRL Randall Lay (@FritoBanditoRL) reported

    @amugaverotv I hope you can help with a question, I have reached out to @FOX2now multiple times and ways......how can anyone stream live FOX 2 news? There is no Roku app and you are not provided on Foxnow app either....suggestions??

  • DrClarkRoush Clark Roush, Ph.D. (@DrClarkRoush) reported

    Siding people accidentally cut my fiber cable so I’ve been without internet, wifi, or Roku for 3+ days. I did survive and repair work is underway. This is cause for rejoicing.
