    @Xavier__Gregory @Roku I'm sorry for the trouble with our TV app. I'm not aware of any changes that should cause that to stop working, but if you will please DM us we will be happy to investigate further. - William

    I 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.

    @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.

    @Roku I need the apps I use right at the top. I need to rearrange the quick access area and I cannot. Tell me how to rearrange them. I have to scroll all the way past a bunch of stupid junk to see my apps on the order I want them in. Tell me how to fix this immediately

    @Roku You have the worst customer service ever. What a crap company.

    I’m getting an error code for @FloRacing on the @Roku app. Anybody else having problems??

    @TCL_Global I will never buy one of your products every again because of the garbage @Roku does. i should not need to connect to the Internet to make changes on my TV. Absolutely terrible. I paid $1000 for my TV, I should have comple control of it. Never again.

    @daisy_musician @paramountplus @Roku Paramount is the only one we had issues with. Appears it was a Walmart plus issue for us.

  • Witchmaster

    @Roku @raizalicea Roku is still broken. My continue watching has necroed shows I've completed over a year ago, and still has items i cannot remove. I get it, you guys have no real competition so there's no reason to worry about quality or reliability.... Just outsource it to programmers that know

    @Roku Your captcha is garbage, your website is garbage, and I've tried a dozen times to recover my password but keep getting looped back to your goddamn captcha. Please fix your garbage!

  • BagLampPillow

    Fix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.

  • TableTopLiberty
    Ben (@TableTopLiberty) reported

    @DIRECTV I did the trial and I have some feedback on what would win me (and I assume others) over from @YouTubeTV. I use @Roku and the left and right buttons for changing channels instead of rewind and fast forward is the worst. Also allowing 3 streams outside but only 2 from TVs is dumb.

  • ILoveIdahoSpuds
    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?

  • MattPierceblog
    Matt Pierce (@MattPierceblog) reported

    This 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

    @Roku Help. Return to me freezes and locks up.

    @CoachDrewNelson I have been getting tons of notifications from @Roku. I found out on Reddit that it was a Roku tech problem, not a hacker. Hope it's the same for you.

  • SLnat

    @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!!

  • RSummers0
    RSummers (@RSummers0) reported

    @Roku WHY isn't TBS channel updating it's episodes on Big Bang Theory? It says expired TODAY IT said that yesterday and still hasn't changed episodes! TBS people are asleep or not paying attention? 🙄 Please fix this!

  • Seraknits
    Sera (@Seraknits) reported

    Don’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.

    @Roku Yes I have, but it didn’t work.

    @roku please fix screen settings! The F1 app is zoomed in. I’m missing so much information. Tried many different fixes. #roku #screensize #issues
