  • melissa_artemis Melissa M. (@melissa_artemis) reported

    I know others are experiencing the same issues. We pay money for this service and its nothing but frustration. I have the problems on multiple devices - roku, smart TV, mobile app. Right now I'm staring at a black screen trying to watch "The Outsider". (Continued)

  • AliciaMoniqueC Alicia Coleman (@AliciaMoniqueC) reported

    @rjochoa Heads up..they are in a fight with Google so it won’t work with new customers that have Roku TVs. Doesn’t have Bally channel but I still really like YouTube TV a lot.

  • slug_neon NeonSlug (@slug_neon) reported

    @brucedianas @comicxbook That is so weird I have not had this issue. I use the Roku Soundbar and Roku 4K stick and yes it is super slow loading but I have not had freezing. The menu is rough but even Netflix’s menu is getting worse so I am just getting used to crappy menus

  • media_dunn MikeDunnMedia (@media_dunn) reported

    @hbomax This is the worst app I’ve ever used on Roku. It crashes every single time, skips and won’t play. Please fix this.

  • Letsgo_piimp One : Twelve 🧡🕊 (@Letsgo_piimp) reported

    Roku is the WORST Tv brand !!

  • biohazardfan07 😊☺️😁🤓😎Andrew🇺🇲⚛🎮🕹🎞📽📹🎥🎬 (@biohazardfan07) reported

    @business Yeah it seems like there's always an issue with Roku. I don't understand!! 🤬😡😠

  • aumandoc Sean Auman D.C. (@aumandoc) reported

    @johndissauer @Channel8ABC Hey I’ve missed about half of your six o’clock news due to a weather warning voice talking over your audio for a watch not close to Lincoln. This is via Hulu played through a roku. Just FYI. Hopefully this is something I can fix on my end.

  • nelsonsrivera am missing nayaミ☆ (@nelsonsrivera) reported

    idk how to watch the demi show. i can't access roku since i'm in France. can someone help me?

  • HeathProffitt heath proffitt (@HeathProffitt) reported

    @FloRacing was trying to watch funny car chaos nitro chaos.... Stream stopped on phone and TV via Roku... Please fix before tomorrow!!! I didn't pay 150 for this kind of service!

  • MichelleBell16 Michelle Older (@MichelleBell16) reported

    @hulu_support I’m having issues on Roku with episodes not resuming in the right place. When I go to resume an episode it’ll start over or go back to the previous episode I’ve already finished.

  • threepress Threepress (@threepress) reported

    @Sling please revert your @Roku UI. The new one is unusable - whoever designed it hasn’t used TV interfaces via remote. Vertical scrolling on a horizontal screen costs time. Making content alphabetical misses relationships inside brands.

  • ryollie90 Ryan Oliver (@ryollie90) reported

    Hey @AppleTV, wife and I are trying to watch F9, and it’s glitching out with no audio on one Roku TV. Shut it all down and moved to living room, now says “To Play F9, Stop On Your Other Device.” Crummy to pay $20 for PVOD and not have it work.

  • kevingamin Kevin Gamin (@kevingamin) reported

    @RusstopherB @FloMarching I had none of those problems using the Roku app. Weird.

  • YoshikoNakamura Subaru⁷ (@YoshikoNakamura) reported

    Anyone else having problems with #PlutoTV loading ? Or being sluggish on their Roku?

  • Metsfan19863 Metsfan1986 (@Metsfan19863) reported

    The audio and video on my TV aren't in sync. Been having trouble with this damn TV all day. They took away the @YouTubeTV app, too. Come on @Roku ! Get your **** together!

  • bzaino21 Bart Zaino (@bzaino21) reported

    @googlenesthelp Yes, they are in the same room, probably 10 feet apart. Other devices (phones, roku) in same room work fine.

  • Hank60687491 Hank (@Hank60687491) reported

    Internet flush with problems with Roku and HBO Max close caption interface - I have 5 other streamers - this is a Max tech problem. Dispute your credit card and cancel until they get it fixed

  • Blushingflwr 😳🌸😷 (@Blushingflwr) reported

    So we've been using the (very bad) MASN app on our Roku, which has a much better picture quality but which routinely just cuts to a screensaver instead of a commercial. You wld think this would be good but it means I get disoriented by the silence (or the breakthrough bad sounds)

  • specm10 Michael Spector (@specm10) reported

    Update. @Locast id fine with my Fire and Roku, Awful with my Sony Bravia Smart TV app.

  • shaunbless shaunbless (@shaunbless) reported

    @bzamayo @BMC_182 Its in a roku 75”. I trouble shoot with them they said contact apple

  • YaHateTwoSeeIt kp (@YaHateTwoSeeIt) reported

    @YellaMoodRing Roku seems to be the only issue

  • attila87 Alec Peacock™ (@attila87) reported

    @alfie_west_55 @AliciaW_RFC @gsdavo1975 If you have CBS sports all access you can sign in to Paramount+ on whatever you use to stream stuff like Netflix. An app or channel, whatever you want to call it. I’m using Roku and I added Paramount+ this morning.

  • KingDonutI 🍩 Tyler, the Fully Vaccinated Donut King 🍩 (@KingDonutI) reported

    At some point, @BallySports has to fix all these audio issues on their Roku app, right? This kinda **** happens quite a bit, along with the all-too-quiet audio that happens like ALL the time.

  • PhilM44 PhilM44 (@PhilM44) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam What do you think I did before I messaged you? And the Roku app is broken. NOW TV is basically broken. Oh and if you think I an paying £5 to have access that I had before the app was broken by you think again. You will be losing £9.99 not gaining another £5.

  • timfsbrown Tim Brown (@timfsbrown) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp ay I just want to watch L'Immortale in Italian with English subtitles. It's supposed to be an option and I can't do this dubbed ****. Tried setting it in both languages, I've tried rebooting the app. I've tried through a Roku and PS5. Please help my family is dying.

  • antman_r Boxing Corner (@antman_r) reported

    Why is @DAZNBoxing so hard to get on your TV in the UK. Doesn't work on my smart TV, doesn't work on a Roku, the app doesn't work on my phone 🤷

  • MWConcertVideo Chris (@MWConcertVideo) reported

    Argh! There doesn't seem to be any way to take the graphics off the screen when I pause @YouTubeTV on my @roku. The only way you can get the graphics off the screen is by playing a video. Can we fix this?

  • melissa_artemis Melissa M. (@melissa_artemis) reported

    I just had to reboot my roku, @hbomax . It's not my device, it's not my internet, it's your app; which is the only one I have a problem with.

  • DonRozz25 Drew Rossignol (@DonRozz25) reported

    I'm on a @Roku and your app is the only one that doesn't work properly @hbomax @HBO
