-
Born Free Pronoun-free 🇺🇸 (@SLnat) reported@Roku you’ve got to do something about your remote control design. It’s terrible! The buttons don’t depress well, they roll and often require pressing multiple times to make a selection. Take a page off Xumo, Apple TV or FireTV. Redesign your remote!!
-
D.A.R.E Capo (@YungYinkv) reportedHey @Roku you may want to fix this. Howdy showing the wrong movie 😡
-
Sera (@Seraknits) reportedDon’t buy a @Roku brand tv. They come with the brightest all the way down so you can’t see the screen and even Roku no support can’t fix it.
-
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
-
Joe McIlvain (@mac_attack54) reported@Roku I’ve seen dollar stores in poor areas with higher quality product than you
-
Jason Burns (@jasonburns76) reported@DisneyPlusUK hi there, is there still a problem with your systems? I tried for 4 hours to cancel my subscription and was sent in circles by @Roku and Disney. Eventually a member of staff on your online chat told me to try later because he couldn't get into the system.
-
Sarah with an h (@SarahDoesKC) reportedThis is a total first world problem, but I lose my mind that it takes 12 minutes and 85 clicks to finally get to the show I’m trying to watch and one accidental step of my dog to wind up on Roku Greatest Hits.
-
MDV (michael delvecchio (@Mdvecchio1) reported@Roku staying in a rental with a roku tv. Absolutely awful quality and user experience. This brand is toast lol what a piece of ****
-
DeluluDad (@BagLampPillow) reportedFix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I went into Picture Settings, turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.
-
we_are_disappointed (@disappointedAF) reported@OGCrimsonJester Just caught Big Trouble last night on Roku.
-
Ki (@Ki_fun_thoughts) reported@Ask_Spectrum I noticed a bill for $115 MORE on my Spectrum. Turns out, without getting my permission, anyone can add TV services from their TV. Spectrum blamed @Roku - NOT Roku's fault! This is 100% Spectrum ALLOWING my credit card to be billed. Yo Spectrum, FIX IT!
-
The wanderer (@thewanderer2020) reported@Fightincowboy @Crunchyroll My back button isn’t working anywhere on any Roku remote. Multiple TVs with the same issue. @Roku
-
Andrea (@winterbaby9313) reportedAnyone else while watching #wrestlemania after a commercial break, it goes back to the beginning of the match that just ended or just a different part in general! watching on @Roku fix this, I'm tired of fast forwarding, then watching another 4-5 mins of ads then back to Mania!
-
NESN Support (@NESNSupport) reported@JackODonohue @NESN @NESNsucks Hi, this issue was fixed in the Roku version 3.9 update. Please update your Roku device to the new version and restart. Thank you

-
Jav787.eth 👺 (@Jdrod83) reported@slinganswers Same issue here. I'm in Puerto Rico it's been almost a week I've had to watch nba playoff games and other content on my phone instead of my roku TV. Looks like I'll be canceling my Sling since there's no fix in sight.
-
ChuckHerrick (@CbuckHerrick) reported@Roku Help. Return to me freezes and locks up.
-
New Village Video (@NewVillageVideo) reportedDoes anyone know someone with experience building a Roku app? I find a bunch of people who are down for the work until they find out it's for a rental app and not AVOD. Any leads would be greatly appreciated!
-
xxx (@xxyumhaj) reported@PrachiR46315213 Mein kisi ko Kiu Roku I haven’t seen any post like that, and as I said, idc about Hania, diljit or the film. I found your statement to be dumb so that’s why I quoted your post, you should’ve been clearer about what you meant if you have a problem with me questioning it
-
Varsity 38 (@CBW556) reportedAnd that turns CC ON for EVERYTHING. Switch from @DisneyPlus to @hulu ? Congratulations! CC. Because one had to turn on CC in the Roku TV settings instead of the show on @DisneyPlus Again, completely idiotic First World problem.
-
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!
-

-
SagePlatinum (@SagePlatinumEXE) reported@NonFactorFGC I can help you get YTP on your IOS Roku is out of my expertise I usually just use anything that supports airplay
-
Ant Murdering She Devil (@ShelleyElwood) reported@TVMoJoe Roku TV, and I've had the same issue on Fire TVs, I suspect maybe only Apple is overriding whatever wonky code is happening in Peacock (because it's not just me)
-
John Tanner (@Lordofdeath14Xb) reported@Roku hey guys if you could fix your ******* app every time when I'm listening to music on my phone through the app it disconnects so how about you guys get off your *** and fix the ******* app thank you.
-
Beckie Shorten (@beckie_bubs) reportedHi @NetflixUK you charge me a fortune each month. But I can’t and haven’t been able to watch anything for 2 months cause the Roku app is broken. And it’s on multiple boxes
-
JJJ (@JD99977) reported@Roku I had the worst experience with Aileen in support chat. She was very rude and unhelpful. I love Roku but this is making me very unhappy. I have an overheating device and she said she had to confirm it was overheating before she could help. I mean im telling her. 😞
