Mean Chihuahua #🍊❤️🤍💙🐕 🇺🇸 🍊 (@MeanChihuahua1) reportedwtf @Roku? What is the deal with our TV. Just left my dad’s house 2 hrs away & his Hisense/Roku TV had logged him out and removed all of his app’s & settings. Just got home to my house and guess what….. all my apps are out of order & all of them require a new login/pw…. Ffffff

TucsonBlonde 🇺🇸💙🌊 (@TucsonBlonde) reported@Roku So about that redesign…how about you stop repopulating my Quick Access section with crap I don’t want/have after I’ve removed everything I don’t want or use? You’ve done it THREE TIMES NOW, and I don’t appreciate having my time wasted as I go back in and delete everything but my YouTube App, which is all that I use on this TV! section with yet more channels I have never used, and shoved YouTube back to the end, again. later. So how do I fix this PERMANENTLY? You can put whatever you want to after the YouTube app, but It’s MY interface, you give us the option to customize it, and while it’s not life ending to have to click several times to get to what took 2 clicks before, it’s very aggravating and I don’t appreciate the level of arrogance that a company displays when they undo the changes I made to shove stuff I don’t want down my throat. I’d appreciate a response, this is ludicrous. So please, help

Brian Richards 🕔 (@CptCracker) reported@thatoneguychaz @FOXSoccer @Roku Fox One is a hot mess. They seem to have blown it on capacity planning. A Grok survey of complaints confirms the issues are multi platform. Roku has a 100 million user base so they are going to get mentioned more than others, but it's cross platform. If there's something roku can do to help fix thst would be great though. The games on Fox over the air have worked just fine. This is when having a $40 Walmart antenna or even better a Tablo antenna tuner/dvr is helpful. The problem is they seem to have 37 games scheduled for streaming only.

Ben Goertz (@bgoertz08) reported@Roku Please please please, fix the PVR on my Roku 65 TV. This update has ruined it. DM me for details.

Alan Hartland (@harty2you) reported@Roku hi, I live in the UK, I have a Roku streaming stick I bought in November 2025 from Tesco. I have had no problems with it until today. I am not able to use BBC iPlayer app. I have done all the resets but still not working. All other TV apps are ok ?

shareurmic (@shareurmic) reported@SomaKazima2 I’m ready to get rid of it anyway since the sound goes out a thousand times during a half hour show; and none of the ‘fixes’ work @Roku

JJJ (@JD99977) reported@Roku I had the worst experience with Aileen in support chat. She was very rude and unhelpful. I love Roku but this is making me very unhappy. I have an overheating device and she said she had to confirm it was overheating before she could help. I mean im telling her. 😞

Chris Nalwasky (@ChrisNalwasky) reported@Roku @FOXSports fix your app. I signed in 5 times and it’s not working.

Andrea (@winterbaby9313) reportedAnyone else while watching #wrestlemania after a commercial break, it goes back to the beginning of the match that just ended or just a different part in general! watching on @Roku fix this, I'm tired of fast forwarding, then watching another 4-5 mins of ads then back to Mania!
-
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.

WedNightDinner (@DinnerWed) reported.@Roku why do i keep getting an error message when i try to exit out of the guest sign in screen?
-
Lmn (@lmn071966) reported@Roku @AppleTV @TheRokuChannel No more subscriptions until you fix this live tv BS!
-
Sera (@Seraknits) reportedDon’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.
-
Maya Belle (@cblanknyc) reported@Roku But no help with unauthorized payments? I was charged nearly $270. Can’t you do better than a one month refund? Please?
-
Autistic Addie 🍉😷🇵🇸💜 (@ghostonthstereo) reported@Roku Again, your messages are shut off, but I’ll just deal with the problem. It’s not worth all this back and forth hassle.
-
Scott (@revscottd) reportedOur @Shentel internet has been out all day. That means no cable tv (because they stream it now), no phone (because our home phone relies on the internet) and @Roku tv’s have to have internet so the app to watch over the air antenna tv can work. 1/2

Todd (@twchristensen) reportedDear @Roku @rokuone I have been nothing but a fan and advocate, until now. Your last update is atrocious. I don’t know who your UX/UI team are or what they were thinking, but they got this all wrong. I could not be more unhappy. You turned one click into 3 or 4. How could that have ever been your goal? Who approved this? It’s just absurd. I will be looking for alternatives because that’s how bad you’ve broken this. And don’t think I didn’t notice that you continue to jam Howdy down my throat. I have deleted it every time, why would you continue to force us to have that channel when we say we don’t want it? It is clear to me that Roku no longer cares about what the customer wants - the death spiral of just about every company that has ever existed. You ruined a good thing. It is going to have unforeseen consequences, starting with me. Unless, of course, your goal was to shed users. All five of my TV’s will be turned over to another streamer by end of next week as I do some research. What a shame.

no, i don't think i will, thanks (@a9ymous) reported@Roku stop continually making the Live TV interface worse, it's one of the reasons we got this RokuTV (pause/rw terrestrial TV). and fix your subtitle support, constantly having to go back to the main menu and unselect/reselect Always On.

Alex Spicola (@AlexSpicola) reported@Roku @RokuSupport NEED HELP! - My subscription support ticket (#13949322) was escalated but I haven’t received any updates. Can someone please check the status and advise on next steps?
-
unQuestionable.com 🍌 (@FoshayTower) reported@Roku Would you please add support for Siri Shortcuts / automations? I would love for my tv to have a trigger phrase to go to a specific app after turning on at a specific time of day, and could make that work with Shortcuts

Shakingmyhead (@mitchroachmr2) reported@paramountplus @ufc is not working on any @Roku devices. Works perfectly on my iPhone. Figure it out! I’ve completed all troubleshooting possibilities.
-
Alan Hartland (@harty2you) reported@Roku well done , my HD Streaming stick is now getting BBC iPlayer that has been unavailable for the past few days. Obviously a major Tech problem.
-
Jacque and Matt (@theDIYvillage) reported@Roku Yeah, nope. Not being able to remove Live TV & Live TV Guide is a no go. Access to inappropriately aged content for kids is unacceptable. Money talks I suppose. Fix it.

Sarah Young (@Sarah_young5314) reported@Roku, I’m not happy. We have a ONN Roku TV. We have an antenna. Until today, I could watch local channels. Now I can’t. I followed all the steps to fix this. Every one. Then I hoped onto chat and had to talk to two different reps, neither of which fixed the issue. One said (1)
