    @Roku you guys and whoever you have working over there are awful for releasing a tv software update and taking away home screen customization. I have a tv imput that i’m not using anymore (HDMI 2) and I can’t delete or hide it like we used to be able to. 😤🙄

    @roku now it turns out that if I don't have internet I can't watch broadcast TV. What a terrible system, I'll never buy a TV with Roku again.

    @Roku Dear Roku. Please fix the HDMI issue with Playstation 5! Ever since your new 'improvements', my TV shows a blank screen and repeated attempts cause it to crash and reboot. Also, I hate that I cannot control the way I want the home screen to appear the way it was before.

    Is anyone else having issues with @Roku ‘s app?

    This is why I'm so pissed at @Roku and one of the examples i gave in my posts another multi billion dollar company that somehow can't get a website to work right yet has millions in testing hardware or at least millions available to test the site before rollout but thats too hard

    Hey @Roku, no one asked you to do up the home screen. I used to be able to have HDMI 1 and 2 in the top row and now I have to go into the inputs to select them. That's stupid bullshit. I want my old home screen back. Not this fkng mess. Fix this.

    Don't know whether it's my @TCL_USA @Roku TV or my @dish Hopper 3, but Lordy, I have to do a hard reboot on them nearly everyday to get them to work together.

    @Roku fix your live tv displays. It shouldn’t be so hard to list what’s being shown when it’s supposed to be in constant rotation. I’m sick of seeing NO DATA AVAILABLE

    @hooplaDigital programming on @roku tvs has problems with closed captioning. Won’t display text. Happens across multiple TVs/setups. Can’t pause video either. Happens a lot.

    So what absolute ******* retard at @Roku decided that when adding a remote THE ******* BACK, HOME, AND ******* APP BUTTONS DON'T BRING YOU BACK TO THE HOME SCREEN OH AND BEST PART IT DOESNT SAY THIS SO I SAT HERE HITTING EVERY ******* BUTTON BUT THE LEFT BUTTON TO GET IT TO WORK

  • JoeKimray
    Joe Kimray (@JoeKimray) reported

    Wow - this new @Roku Home Screen update they forced on everyone is one of the worst technology “upgrades” ever. Lost the ability to customize the Home Screen - and they added a lot of apps no one wants, that you can’t remove. Horrible decision - the customer is always last…

    @BlueMoon_Mining @Roku Right! Besides whatever nonsense it's talking about titles this is the other reason im so angry 20 billion dollar company 450 ******* PEOPLE THEY EMPLOY THAT AT LEAST 1 OF THEM COULD ******* FIX THESE BUGS

    @Roku Trying to get ahold of Support on Roku is impossible anymore They have a chat section that doesn't work when pressed, I canceled my trial offer and still get charged for a month's worth! I think I'm going to have to end Roku now

    Peter Jones (@Peter_B_Jones) reported

    @roku so you sell me on your wireless surround sound then discontinue the products that work with it so that when one dies I can't even use a measly discount code on your website to replace the device! Garbage!

    @Roku Problem started July 5th I’ve tried everything, sound still works but tv screen is still like the picture above, I’ve seen on Reddit that your tvs do this to plenty of people i don’t think anybody has a fix for it yet

    George H Frost III (@ghfrost3) reported

    So I pay for a subscription on @Roku payment goes through they get the money. Subscription does not work. @Roku is good at taking the money but… that’s where their part ends taking the $$. **** doesn’t work and zero real support. You ******* suck and I’m going back to cable.

    @Roku @ASStrogurl24 @Roku you all need to work with charter spectrum on the spectrum app because it has lots of glitches. There's not an app that glitches anywhere close to the spectrum app. FYI

    @Roku had to sign into @AppleTV AGAIN. This is what I see. It’s the correct password. Only option is to exit out and do it again which gets me to same blank screen. It’s always Apple that I have issues with.

    I need to get off of @Roku here in the US. Changing the home page was the last straw. Any suggestions for an alternative? I could use some help.

    @red_chem_lite @Roku Try the bitter apple spray, it really deters some dogs from chewing specific items. A little of it rubbed on the remote might work. Also have you tried the ultrasonic sound deterrent? That stopped our dogs from bad behaviors. If you see them going near the remote press it. After a few times they should associate the remote with that unpleasant sound (that only they can hear!) Good luck

    @Roku It changed over today and it's absolutely terrible. Everything is all over the place and has messed up my apps and home screen. How do I change it back, cause I'm just getting rid of this TV and will avoid using Roku system and products. You know how to lose customers
