@Roku @BBCiPlayer why are you both incapable of sorting out error code 02056? Its been more than a month since I could watch anything on iPlayer Instead of pretending there is no problem or blaming one another, why not try actually attempting to fix it?

@elonmusk If I could connect the WII game I have from years ago, I’d love to play any of those games. I also have a Roku device I bought almost 3 years ago I never connected. I’m just too old to be able to do those things anymore. The electronic connection. That’s where I have trouble.

@Ask_Spectrum Did you or @CBSTweet have issues with broadcasting Big Brother Sunday night? Neither of Tivo nor Roku have it.

@iFit your app isnt working on my bike or treadmill. The apps on the phone and roku wont work either. It is not my internet. You clearly have an outage.

@Mallys_Rul @foxnation I have a Roku, that’s where I subscribed. I just cancelled Hulu, where I got Fox live. I can’t afford it anymore. Thought if I got Fox nation, I’d at least get it live. But it’s not included. It wants me to sign in with my cable provider. Not happy.

@HedgeyeComm I thought you were bullish on it during the bubble through Twitter. Thought you loved the OS part of the company. I actually don't have a problem with Roku. Just think it's interesting to be critical of companies during a difficult investing environment.

@OnPatrolNation I had that too and roku told me to delete my xfinity app channel and reinstall it. I told them not the problem it's only the reelz channel on xfinity and everyother provider.

I went to watch something on a roku ( so no ad blocker) and in the first 5 minutes of video they ran over 10 ads. That is a worse ad to content ration then network TV. No wonder I use ad block, it's literally unusable otherwise.

I've known nothing but stress and frustration since plugged in the Roku stick. The app constantly signs me out on my tablet. I get an error msg on my TV that requires me reboot several times during the day, every day. And the environments aren't enclosed.

@jessithebuckeye I see people say this a lot about BR, I have bought every PPV since AEW began with zero issues. I have to believe the issues are regional, I'm in NJ. Or it's provider based? I watch using the app on my Roku.

@Roku A... the remote needs to be pushed 20 times to get it to react... always. B... went to your site to get HDMI extender hoping that will fix the issue... C... past 3 days when trying to get the free HDMI extender, it just says... error at this time, try again. D... HELP!

Stop GRT, not CRT
(@Paulitik74) reported
@WhitneyPuppy If you can afford a Sony, you won’t beat the picture quality, LG next, but a lot of the 4K Roku built in TVs are a bargain. Vizio is good, but no built in tuner/antenna, and my 65” picture quality has faded over 3 years. Samsung customer service is trash.

@Spooky23 I was able to cast to Apple TV from iPhone/IPad, but Roku did not work for me. Even with Apple TV, I he’d to restart the app a few times, there was a couple minute delay between twitter notifications RE events in the game and the stream.

Hey @roku. What's happening about the 02056 errors when accessing content on @BBCiplayer ? Reloaded the app, checked firmware even did a factory reset but still not working...

@RokuSupport I'm having problems with being kicked out of whatever streaming service I'm viewing after a while. For instance, I'm watching a Prime Video movie and twice have been kicked out to the Roku main screen. Same thing happens with others. Very annoying. Please help.

In weaning myself off Amazon, I've found that the things I thought would be challenging aren't. But the unknowns have been a problem. The biggest issue being Roku sucks. The ghouls at Amazon created a superior product in the Fire Stick. Period.

@CathyYoung63 Roku are easier to troubleshoot at work than Firesticks. The antennas of the stick versions of any steaming device aren't as good as the ones with little base stations, so take you wifi coverage into consideration no matter what you get.

Hey, @Roku , I hunt down SciFi all the time. Even after I saw #ThePact mentioned I had trouble finding it. So many other shows are named "The Pact" that your show was obscurely listed on Google. Plz advertise better It was hard just finding out it was only on Roku site/service

@TheKennyClaude @YouTube Only problem with RTN for me is I can't get it on my tv, and I'm not buying an amazon fire stick or roku just for that. They need to get it to work straight on smart tvs or apple tv.

@Argos_Online Hey there, I’ve bought two Roku 4K boxes from you, both have been great. One has decided to brick itself, just getting stuck on the boot screen. It’s not the cables, and none of the manufacturers recommended methods work,so it’s useless. How do I get a replacement?

@CraveCanada @Roku Hi I just signed up for a subscription as a tv show I wanted to watch was advertised on my Roku tv as being part of the subscription. After doing so it is not listed on the Crave tv app but still showing in the Roku search page as viewable with Crave? Help?

@FloMarching I'd love to use the @FloMarching app on my @Roku TV, but it's so slow and out of sync it's unusable. I have run through my laptop so I can't get full screen on my 48" TV. Fix your app or find me a viable option.
