-
MacroMan (@Three12Capital) reported@WallSt_Dropout @iramneek To think competition was never going affect NFLX was ignorant and divergence between EPS & FCF should raise question on CFS / accounting. To think OEMs need ROKU shows lack of understanding in how OEMs even work
-
Steve Reynolds (@DevilDog2025) reported@TeamYouTube It’s not working on Samsung Smart TV, Roku, or iPad. It’s a problem with your service not the app. I’m downloading @DIRECTV so that’s how I will deal with your problem.
-
Corey (@cmball10) reported@JEPopeIV Have had roku for a couple years and never had an issue on either tv we use them with.
-
Janez (@janezdenise) reported@Sunnybearmara1 At first I downloaded it on Roku TV, but I got the app on my phone now and I think it will work!
-
Victor (@VicKhiz) reported@ToryGainez @ProblemSniper If you think ROKU is on Netflix level you should work for Cathie
-
Hunt (@brovez117) reportedWhy does my Roku just decide when it wants to work and when it doesnt.😑
-
ubephat HappyGMore (@ubephat) reported@davidgandler @benthompson Roku falling 25 percent right now, i got a bad feeling. Hope you managed your money better or we are all in trouble. Us Shareholders that is
-
Josh Fuller (@joshuaefuller) reported@TSLAFanMtl @CathieDWood I don't get Roku. They are one of the worst TV platforms I have tried in the last few years. I almost threw my father in laws remote at the wall. I have Google TV which seems to edge out Apple. Just wish the Google TV was less buggy.
-
PowerRC (@Power_RC) reported@Pi314159265351 @unusual_whales I don't see any problem here , roku just need to do a 10-1 reverse split , then here you go
-
No_Look etc (@bemidjiben) reportedIs #DisneyPlus not working on firestick anymore? I'd check the Roku but I just got out of my wheelchair into bed and I don't think I have the energy to make it.
-
Matt Jones (@gremjay73) reported@VuduSupport I’m experiencing issues launching Vudu app on Roku and my iPhone, are you having network trouble?
-
qqqspx (@qqqspx) reported@cperruna Let’s see, garbage like TDOC, ROKU, UPST is getting clapped 15-25% AHs; meanwhile quality like AMZN, GOOG, TSLA is rising 5-10% AHs. **** co’s never have a bottom in a bear market.
-
Eric Curto (@annericelover) reported@VuduSupport Is Vudu down right now? I'm trying to sign in and says my password is wrong, I checked my computer where I have it saved and its the right password. I don't know why I was kicked off my apps (Android tablet, computer & Roku TV)
-
Pam Utter (@putter7715) reported@BallySportsMW your app on Roku tonight is **** and keeps dropping the game. Please fix it! I’m trying to watch the @Royals!
-
Oceana Lizard ☮️ (@OceanaLizard) reported@kaemicha I have Netflix and Amazon Prime so I watch those. I should look into a Roku but new technology perplexes me. LOLOL I'm forced to embrace it at work so I rebel at home.
-
Josh Pitts (@DogGuyJosh) reported@mistman78 I have Samsung in front room, Vizio in garage & an Onn in another room. All have Roku OS. So how does the revenue share work currently? I suspect their motive to manufacture their own is to make more money, but am I wrong to think it seems like a sweet license for them already?
-
Zackery Parker🦅 (@mistman78) reported@DogGuyJosh I think supply chain has been and will be a bigger issue on TVs than they are admitting. I have noticed that cheaper TVs with Roku OS built in often cost more and sell out quicker than those without. They need to get off their high horse and partner with Samsung and Vizio

w3st G (@w3stg) reported@JEPopeIV Google TV, has all the services and doesn't crash. Switched from Roku a couple years back.
-
qqqspx (@qqqspx) reported@cperruna Let’s see, garbage like TDOC, ROKU, UPST is getting clapped 15-25% AHs; meanwhile quality like AMZN, GOOG, TSLA is rising 5-10% AHs. **** co’s have an endless bottom in a bear market.

Dennis Doms (@DennisDoms) reported@dcharleyquinn @hbomax Trying to watch S3E1 (on a Chromecast with Google TV and the (fully updated) HBO/Max app starts shunting me to E2 at about 5 minutes from the end of episode. Can't watch the end. (Will try on Roku tomorrow to see if it's an app issue.)

Navy (@sfw_bear) reported@HeyseussK @Dale10111964 @gunpolicy Does that work with a Roku TV? That's where I mostly watch

Nicholas Brown (@News_By_Nick) reported“It’s a contest between Intel and Roku for the worst report of the evening – we think Intel wins the prize on account of its larger size (the Intel report/guide is the worst Q2 release of any company so far this season).”- @knowledge_vital $ROKU $INTC
-
David Fraser (@major__fraser) reported@hulu_support @cindyx0 @hulu_support this is not an isolated issue. I have the same problem via roku
-
Rotating_Pajamas (@RotatingPajamas) reported@Roku your remote design is worst of all time
-
Gari MacColl 🇪🇺🟪🦋 (@JGMacColl) reported@nextupcomedy When trying to add NextUp to my Roku I'm getting an error code. Can you advise?
-
Jim Redmond (@ajjkh) reported@RealAmVoice Hello RAV, I'm having an issue pausing RAV through my ROKU. The other channels/ apps work great. I went to the ROKU forums and they said it was RAV. How do I fix this?
-
Satya Prakash (@Spbikkina) reported@HughDonohoe Is it roku problem and losing market share or in general entire tv market?
-
Daniel Bienlien (@DanielJBienlien) reported@dampedspring People seem to like the name. I know a bunch of people that bought ****** TVs just because it was Roku. Doesn’t make sense to me. I will continue to buy TVs based on picture quality.
-
ABC (@AlwaysBeChartin) reported$ROKU funny thing is, the connect tv space is only getting larger with more people cutting the cord. Issue is no one buys ROKU set too player (it’s ****) smart tvs can replace this. Secondly , ROKU acquired a **** platform in Dataxu back in 2018 or something. YUCKIE
-
Invested Thought (@InvestedThought) reported@TSOH_Investing Horrible Q / guide but revenue deceleration coincides with Roku starting to get hit on supply chain side. On 4Q21 call, they mentioned problems would persist in 2022. Add the slowdown in ads, and there's a recipe for a brutal quarter. Overall, I'm more skeptical but LT positive.
