dcf (@DrunkCuseFan) reportedThe @espn app on ROKU is by far the worst ******* thing in the history of technology. Load times resemble those of an AOL Dial Up connection in 1995.

Coach Eli (Elias Melas) (@eliasmelas) reported@TeamYouTube , I just got a new Roku Ultra 2022 and the YouTube app on it is over-scanning any TV I connect it to by about 10%. None of the other apps have this issue. I contacted Roku and they said this was an issue on your end. Can you please look into this?

Coach Eli (Elias Melas) (@eliasmelas) reportedFurthermore @TeamYouTube, this has been a known issue for quite sometime with the app on Roku. There used to be a setting to manually adjust this through the app, but it's no longer available. Is there any way this can be updated and fixed by your internal team? Thanks! :-)

noora vert 🖤 toronto (@noora_vert) reported@Zaarakxo I have a Samsung and am very happy with it. I was tempted by the TCL Roku ones but I figured it was better to spend a few extra 100s for something known to have more longevity/less issues

-

ian🌱 CW: BLEACH (@_bansai) reportedGod I hate Roku tv so much why is so hard to make it work with Google assistant??!! 😤
-
Paul O. (Eccentric Fanboy) (@EccentricFanboy) reportedSpent the better part of an hour trying to get the Crunchyroll Roku app to work (reinstalling the app, clearing the cache, restarting) before giving up and switching to my computer. I suspect it broke after a Roku operating system update a couple days ago.

joey (@joey71394706) reportedWho 3lse can't get the #Crunchyroll working on there #roku device I just want to know if I'm the only one with that issue

Jay | spending my life saving on rgg merch (@JKll_HDE02) reportedHe tried to remember who that man in his head is but only to feel sadness and regret in his chest. Mine continues to paint and paint until he made his masterpiece which he name it ‘ Roku ‘ (六) . His work gain popularity but Mine still couldn’t remember anything.
-
Roberto (@Royat21) reported@Crunchyroll the app on roku isn’t working it will play old shows but not the new ones. I’ve uninstalled the app logged in and out a lot and nothing, and you have no numbers to call help me.

🌲🥦☭ Treezy the Magnanimous 707er ☭🌉🌉 (@coryandtreezy) reportedone of these days I'm going to use my guest device access on my parents echo dot to stream unsolicited video to their roku 4k stick while I'm not at their house to see how long they try to put up with it before they ask me to try and fix it
-
Emily Haynes (@EmTay14) reported@RokuSupport hi - our Roku won’t connect to our wifi, even though it says the signal is excellent and all other devices are connected. It says error 014.50 - help!
-
Ben Mankiewicz (@BenMank77) reported@beemarsha1965 @tcm If he gets an iPad, he can sign in for however you get @tcm…and the TCM app always has at least 100 movies available. Or like big TV with Roku (or Apple TV, but I love Roku), and use the app through that. Then he has the big screen. Just a thought.
-
AmyLee (@iheartnjdevils) reported@joey71394706 Won’t work on my Roku either
-
AmyLee (@iheartnjdevils) reported@Crunchyroll what’s going on with your service? Second time today your app on Roku won’t play any videos l. Just “Ooos. There was a problem. Here’s what happened.” With no info, just the close button…
-
Sebastián Monzón Mella (@oyeseba) reported@NBALPSupport Please fix the app for the Roku, it has the audio out of phase with the image. And not to mention how poorly AirPlay streaming from the iPhone works.
-
A (@seeitgotowaste) reported@Crunchyroll help! Crunchyroll has stopped working on my Roku! I can get on it fine, the animes just won't play!
-
Chaz 🌻 (@Cmonique824) reportedI need to buy a smart tv for my room, this Roku thing work when it wants 😒
-
Joey Bove (@joeybove) reported@LAClippers @ClippersPR @Steven_Ballmer When I got the email apologizing for ClipperVision not working and notifying us of the extension of the free trial, I assumed that meant it was fixed. It’s still not working on Roku or Chromecast. What’s the deal? #clippers
-
#17 Fighting Illini 😤 (@TheIlliniFN) reported@MrCribster Is it a smart TV or do you have a Roku or Amazon Fire-stick? You need to be able to download the BTN+ app to be able to login and use it.
-
Mary Jones (@tlachtga) reported@hellolibrarian OK, I unplugged the roku and plugged it back in again. I can't believe this is still the fix for most thing.
-
AgC (@aggiechrissy) reported@TCL_USA extremely disappointed in quality of Roku tvs! Bought 2 at Christmas for family members - one from @target and another from @walmart and both have malfunctioned and screens no longer come on. Now have to go through scheduling another repair visit. Not impressed. 😖
-
Michael Di Salvo (@MichaelDi_Salvo) reported@TCL_USA @PrimeVideo @Roku You need a better support system in place when your customers have issues, when the Prime Video app doesn't support Dolby Vision HDR on a TCL made, Roku OS running TV, to keep passing the buck saying "its not us, contact them" doesn't solve anything...
-
Resting Glitch Face (@BlakeTheSequel) reported@Shudder Still doesn't work on my Roku *or* my phone 😔😔😔
