Cream the Barber (@creamthebarber) reported@Roku Just bought a new stick just a few months ago, and it’s already taken a crap on me. Freezes all the time, and now doesn’t pick up my WiFi. It was fine when I first got it, now it just doesn’t work. And this is about the 4th stick that’s done this. Really terrible. Smh.
-
Bryan (@Bry1527) reported@Crunchyroll @Roku Hey is there a way to fix the Crunchyroll app on Roku tv?? It's been saying "session expired. You've been logged out" for weeks. I can still use my account no problem on every other device like normal.
-
Lmn (@lmn071966) reported@Roku Please fix the live tv issues

-
PureBlood86 (@MAGAPureblood86) reported@Roku WTF?! Remote control batteries go dead every 2 weeks. Can we fix this? I've never seen anything like this in my life. Multiply this times 4 ROKU tvs in the house. Getting ridiculous. Is Amazone Fire any better? anybody chime in. Thx,
-
Dr. Dani (@chenIeguy) reportedjust had to factory reset the tv because it just wouldn’t update and literally wouldn’t let me leave the update screen 🫶🏻🫶🏻 @Roku i have some really awful words for you
-
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?
-
G.P. (@zerochill13) reportedCrunchyroll has the worst roku app ever. At this point they are better off not offering it at all
-
Adam Billmann (@AdamBillmann) reported@Verizon hey, why does my home internet default to a different location then I’m at? I cant get my @watchfoxone to work correct because it’s giving me Chicago as my local news, not Milwaukee! How can I fix this? I updated my correct address on @Roku
-
SONJA SMITH (@SstKmd) reported@slinganswers Suddenly #Sling FreeStream on #Roku has this msg: "11-6 Looks like a #location issue. 1)Make sure you aren't on VPN; 2) Enable location services if they aren't on (mobile devices only)" Neither issue is valid. I am in Md USA. Please fix this. 😠 cc @Sling @Roku
-
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)
-
Bill K. (@Hubbyboogie) reported@LCLoudmouth @Roku I think I read they’re going to be fixing that issue.
-
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.
-
WedNightDinner (@DinnerWed) reported.@Roku why do i keep getting an error message when i try to exit out of the guest sign in screen?
-
Dannics (@DANNICSX) reported@rokudoesnothing @SpaceSama @gekiko_bathory Thank you Roku. I agree. dialing things back to drama doesnt solve things. doesnt matter from whom.i just got riled up and apologize. i hope others actually involved and knowing more who dials what can be of rightious help for both being this awful situation.

Dane001a (@dane001a) reported@Abinitio12 @Roku I can’t get Ryukyu live TV to work
-
Mike.🇨🇦🇳🇱🚛🚚HonkHonkSpeakToMy🥑Avocado🥑 (@MikeP77Doglover) reportedI'm currently watching the YouTube algorithms rebuild my profile. I just got a new Roku, didn't sign in but they're pushing me stuff that's narrowing down who I really am based on the information they have. Very interesting.
-
Brittney (@hope_britt) reported@DIRECTV & @Roku rcount your days! Why would you allow a customer to sign up via Roku and thru your services for the same exact product. Why tf would i sign up for the same sorry *** service twice! & for @Roku not to issue refunds after I’ve been charged twice is crazy
-
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.
-
D.A.R.E Capo (@YungYinkv) reportedHey @Roku you may want to fix this. Howdy showing the wrong movie 😡
-
Skippy QSB (@Skippyqsb) reported@Roku @TheRokuChannel Keep getting connection issue error and telling me to check my connection, then it dumps me back to main Roku menu. Connection is fine. I have no problems with other apps, just with Roku Channel. I have checked for updates and rebooted. Still getting error.
-
JRC_Lanoka (@JRCsystems) reportedHey @Roku and @prageru @DennisPrager - Did you know that apparently Roku is #blocking Prageru app? The app starts, but #anything you try watching crashes immediately and leaves you back at the main screen. Tried updating. Tried uninstall/ reinstall. Doesn't work!
-
Adam Lash (@newfoundmass) reportedThe Shudder Roku app was the worst app I'd ever used until I used the Shudder Fire TV app.
-
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.
-
((MS__no__nothing)) 👨🦼🎗💙🔯 (@msnonothing1) reported@roku What is wrong with your VIAPLAY app? It works fine on my Fire TV. FIX it, or cancel and refund my money. DM for details.
-
Brian Keller (@keller5327) reported@Roku @TheRokuChannel Why don't you brilliant guys over there just put a "Add new device" link in our profile, since all the other ways to have to add a device DON'T WORK!
-
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 turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.
-
Imani Drayton (@imanidrayton27) reported@gcanderson57 @PlutoTV @Roku I'm using a Hisense Roku TV and mine does the same thing you've mentioned. I pretty much did everything reopened the app, restarted the TV and neither of those things worked. Like I said it could be the app that's causing the problem.
-
redheadgrl🍂 (@redheadgrl04) reportedLet’s see if @Hulu will actually work today. I dunno if it’s on their end or @Roku but all week I’ve had problems.
-
Harvey Jackalope (@HarveyJackalope) reported@AppleTV and @Roku need to figure out why I can't watch @F1 without the Roku freezing and restarting after 10 minutes. Having no such issues watching on my phone.
