-
Jake Tomberlin (@jaketomberlin) reported@Roku I’m a long-time Roku fan, but this latest home experience is terrible. It’s so bad I’m considering Apple TV. Please roll it back to the last version or give users the option to do so.
-
All Late Models (@AllLateModels) reportedI’m getting an error code for @FloRacing on the @Roku app. Anybody else having problems??
-
Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported@Roku @caseyrosewilson Latest update on Roku has brought on tons of issues. Can't remove finished listings from continue watching, completing episodes goes on to random programs, etc. And periodically it just resets itself. How about rolling back to stability?
-
Reigh S. (@ILoveIdahoSpuds) reported@Roku hello, whatever forced update that was just received by my Ultra just bricked my device. Factory reset not working. Error 023.4. “Reset to factory settings” fails. Any suggestions?
-
cShell (@conchShell11) reported@Roku The May 8, 2026 software update ****** up the HDMI CEC, so that it no longer allows me to control the VOLUME or MUTE for my audio receiver with my Roku remote. After doing a Factory Reset, it STILL doesn't work. HDMI CEC is no longer in the settings. WTF? Please FIX this ASAP!
-
Aaron (@_aarontokes) reported@Roku @Roku You guys make the shittiest ******* TVs I just bought this and all it does is glitch! Piece of ****!
-
Bill K. (@Hubbyboogie) reported@LCLoudmouth @Roku I think I read they’re going to be fixing that issue.
-
Sarah Young (@Sarah_young5314) reported@Roku, I’m not happy. We have a ONN Roku TV. We have an antenna. Until today, I could watch local channels. Now I can’t. I followed all the steps to fix this. Every one. Then I hoped onto chat and had to talk to two different reps, neither of which fixed the issue. One said (1)
-
Andy Hayes (@ahayes7) reportedNeed help from @DisneyPlus and @Roku ! My 4 year old son was pushing buttons and now I’m getting charged $12.99 a month. Need help stopping and reversing this!
-
Alex Spicola (@AlexSpicola) reported@Roku @RokuSupport NEED HELP! - My subscription support ticket (#13949322) was escalated but I haven’t received any updates. Can someone please check the status and advise on next steps?
-
(Rebəl) Shane (@Smoke3x) reported@Roku your @espn app is STILL screwed up! Y’all need to fix it!
-
Rikki Ratliff (@rikkiratliff) reported@james37144 @Roku It's working for a lot of people but as Glenn said on radio and on the Commuity page it still needs polishing but we tried to get it up in time to work out the kinks before the special.
-
Keny2 (@yas6444) reported@Roku POOR execution! great idea. I have many roku sound bars thinking they had all I want - WRONG! They all, within 9 months, have problems with: pairing to TVs, won't turn on TV or Roku box, sound crackles, Batteries drain FAST, etc. AND NO CUSTOMER SERVICE reply! don't buy...
-
[a case of the blog] (@acaseofthetwit) reportedI normally love my @Roku — I have one for each TV! — but my living room one has been a real issue. The remote randomly stopped working and the device itself now reboots itself multiple times a day (often in the middle of viewing something). Very annoying.
-
TimeToWatch (@WhatsMyLime) reported@Roku I need help creating an account can we message? I’m getting the TV today and it says I need an account can be free but when I hit continue nothing will work and yes, I know how to do that
-
Osondu Esonwune (@OsonduEsonwune) reported@Roku I have done all but still the same problem
-
Roger Pollard (@RogerChrista) reported@hulu_support I have 1G internet using a @Roku Ultra. It’s not an internet or device issue. Like I said, it’s ONLY on this channel and ONLY for games, not regular programming.
-
D.A.R.E Capo (@YungYinkv) reportedHey @Roku you may want to fix this. Howdy showing the wrong movie 😡
-
Kyle Lambert (@kylelambertkc) reported@Roku Now, with this new thing, when I turn off the tv it comes back on. Also, many functions that used to work with Alexa are gone. This is not an upgrade, it's an inconvenience. I have three ultimate boxes all doing the same thing. I had better not have to start unplugging the TV.
-
Brian Hoyt (@OhioBrian) reportedWho else is having serious lag and spooling on @YouTubeTV tonight on @Roku. No other streaming services have issues. Yes, I have restarted the app and the whole #Roku This seems to happening more and more. The service was more reliable before they started jacking up prices
-
Support Your Producing Housewives (@RespectProdHWs) reportedFYI - no one sure ever by another #tcltv #rokutv - they are the worst. And then you call and the phone hangs up. Never again. @Roku @TCL_USA
-
Richie (@RichiePuregains) reportedDon’t ever buy @Roku theyre making junk that’s overpriced significantly. Every tv I have their POS products to use for @GetSpectrum has problems. By problems I mean everything they have including the most basic functions frequently do not work.
-
Bill Howell (@Bill_Howell_) reported@Roku I have done all that and I am not the only one complaining about this. Interesting an older Roku device in another room doesn't have this issue. It started with a new purchase of a new 4k streaming stick.
-
Matt Pierce (@MattPierceblog) reportedThis entire @F1 and @Apple agreement has been fine broadcast wise but it's this entire bullshit around it being forced into another subscription, lagging latency when using a smart TV, and crap. Just give me my F1 app on @Roku with a single sign in and one reasonable subscription
-
Jason (@ManuteSwol) reported@Roku Are you guys having some kind of outage? One of my devices failed to update... I factory reset it and now cannot add Apps. Your web site says there is a known issue. How about an update?
-
Melt Wizard (@melt_wizard) reported@Roku @DeeRugz718 This **** is awful!!! Change it back!!!
-
Rikki Ratliff (@rikkiratliff) reported@MeetYouAtMoes @theblaze @Roku I don't work at Blaze but Glenn has had Internet connection issues from FL to Dallas today.
-
Yaaarrittzzza☀️ (@MaleniYaritza) reportedAnyone having issues with @Roku 😭
-
RJ Financial Group (@businesslendin1) reported@Roku I need help. My 3 emails are already full as you max out at 20. What’s the solution I own multiple Airbnb’s and I only install Roku TV’s.
-
Primetime 📺 (@Primetime_TB) reportedFinally watching @this_is_acw After Shock. Starting from beginning. Had issues with devices so eventually settled in on canceling the subscription through @Roku and then subscribing to @Triller_TV+ itself and hopefully this will let me watch it on 2 tvs.
