Lorider*ski (@Lorider1111) reported@premium_BM @geyservillegirl Help me!! Live has been out in BAMA or Roku so I don’t get anything but the show n tweets. Whach’all see?
-
Jeremy Bowers (@jeremybowers) reported@dylanmatt Roku is an awful developer experience — we hacked together an app for NPR at one point and it was miserable.
-
Francis Broz 🌸 #prochoice (@francisbroz) reported@Shudder_UK is there a problem currently as my app is erroring on roku, firestick and android?
-
Duckboy416 (@duckboy300) reportedThankfully I got @YouTubeTV as well. At least this one works. @slinganswers I think there a problem with the app on the Roku.
-
armchairdj (@armchairdj) reported@PrimeVideo has lost its mind w/ its latest Apple TV update. Overriding the buttery-smooth scrubbing that the OS gives them for free for a monstrously unusable FF/RW that’s worse than a Roku from 15 years ago. The UX exec who greenlit this should be publicly hanged.
-
Ryguy the flyguy (@Ryan86896586) reported@JR83191142 @ImagineReplay @Roku I already have a account. It just dosent have the login option. Like my smart TV does and Roko but not my firestick they need to give the Amazon one a update next
-
TJB (@TaJye) reported@hulu_support It’s happening on all devices: Firestick, IPhone, Roku, and ipad. Tried these items on the ipad and it didn’t work. Given that this is only happening for 1 specific program doesn’t seem to be a device issue.
-
Stuart McDonald (@mcdonald_stuart) reported@TalkTalk trying to watch to via the Roku but all apps are glitchy and stuttering. Reset roku, reset router and even resorted to watching Netflix via the tv, still glitchy like mad. Your outage map says no problems yet there clearly is
-
Greg U (@GregIndependent) reported@Roku Hey, You need to get Roku Channel to work on Sony TV OS. Please, make it sooner than later. Thanks a lot. The browser doesn't work well with it since browsers in general don't work well on almost every TV OS.
-
Mike Mancari (@MKMB0817) reported@Roku worst customer service ever when “chatting” to talk about my defective “Pro” remote. Your agent Renu might possibly be the worst I’ve ever encountered. Had to repeat myself numerous time because apparently they can’t read.
-
WrenchBone (@bone_wrench) reported@TheHardyXV @HIDIVEofficial I tried both Their Roku app and site on different devices with two different networks, and downdetector's showing a spike in reports. Looks like they've got a problem and I JUST warmed up my damn abyssal snacks
-
Roke (@R0KeM) reported@DIRECTVhelp Unfortunately these suggestions to trouble shooting did not work. The app has to be uninstalled and reinstalled everyday on my ROKU Ultra device. This started happening after the last app update. It’s probably a bug on your end.
-
John Saccomano (@jsacc777) reported@RokuSupport Only on the direct TV stream app, only on my roku tv, the error message was in the picture I included but it says "Somethings not right. Press Home to quit, and try again."
-
scools12 (@scools12) reported@tylerjoseph20 @XfinitySupport I can get the Bally Sports App to work on my phone. Xfinity stream on Roku & Apple TV not working.
-
Peggy pothead. 💯💪🎯✌ (@PeggyBouchard6) reported@angiebulkeley I save as soon as I get my ACP benefits $60 my bills only $100 now. It was 212 I'm going to get rid of basic cable cuz I'm getting Roku that'll be even cheaper then I'm glad you got money back in your pocket you work hard
-
angrybluedotfem💙🌻🌊 (@angrybluedotfem) reported@YouTubeTV can you tell me why since switching to @MSNBC while I work during the day, my app closes out to the main roku screen every few hours? Only on this app, and only msnbc channel. (Recently switched from cnn where this did not occur).
-
Mary (@toffhibee) reported@hulu_support Having trouble on both my television app for Roku and my laptop running the latest version of chrome. Netflix, amazon prime, and peacock have all been fine.
-
Bill Eiseman (@BillEiseman) reported@TeamYouTube I watch YouTubeTV on @Roku . Is there a way to change my setting for this channel so it doesn't time out every hour or so? This is the only Roku Channel I have this issue with. After about an hour it freezes and then kicks me out of YTTV.

Steve Pepper💙 (@Steve__Pepper) reportedHi @nextupcomedy, when I load the Nextup app on my Roku I get the message 'Error: the requested URL returned error:404'. I'm using a Roku Express in the UK. All other apps are fine. I've tried reinstalling it with no luck but it's a 404 so... This is the second time I've asked.

-
TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) reported@BillEiseman if reinstalling the YouTube TV app fails to fix the problem, what you're experiencing is most likely the Bandwidth Saver Feature in your Roku device. You can toggle this by going to Settings > Network > Bandwidth saver > Off. let us know if that does the trick!
-
A Kaleidoscopic Mind (@AKM_Podcast) reported@DisneyPlus app is not working on my Roku TV or my Xbox Series S. Working fine on the iPad though so it’s not an issue with my internet. Any one else having these issues this am?
