  • tommyarzillosr thetommyllama_13 (@tommyarzillosr) reported

    @Roku Roku has the worst customer service, been on phone for a week trying to rectify my billing for something I can't even use. They continue to avoid and tell us that their supervisors can't talk on phone.. hey Roku going on all platforms to blast the poorest customer service ever..

  • TxWomenRock . (@TxWomenRock) reported

    @WesleyLowery cnn+ was always going to fail bc they had a warped view of how people consume streaming products (no roku? ayfkm) same thing that happened w quibi (on my iphone? i don’t watch videos on it bc it kills the battery- YT TT are the worst)

  • CherylLawson918 Cheryl Lawson (@CherylLawson918) reported from Tulsa, Oklahoma

    @TennisTV Roku and Mobile app require login each time. Is there a fix for that? Also any news on Samsung TV app. I appreciate the app, but man is it getting harder to use and watch

  • chappys55 richard chapman (@chappys55) reported

    @Viki My viki is not working it starts to load and shuts off on both my roku's. Is it down?

  • brenda_V71 🌀brenda_v71🌀 (@brenda_V71) reported

    @Bearkiddy @VikiStatus This is tweet is ignorant.I pay $99 to be able to watch,when I want and what I want. Don’t tell me to go someplace else, when these technical issues are constant & repetitive. Last week it was all Apple platforms,now Roku. Shabby performance.

  • DanielleGiraffe 💜⁷🍊🐙Danielle, 06/10/2022 ︽✵︽ (@DanielleGiraffe) reported

    Literally bought a #Roku to be able to watch #Viki & the new update has it crashing! Fix this please @Viki & @Roku!

  • greenchristyeye Christy (@greenchristyeye) reported

    @CarmenMedinaXQ Viki keeps crashing on me! Am trying to watch are you human and its not working 😭😭😭 Already reloaded roku and about to sign out and back in

  • Serge29948835 Serge (@Serge29948835) reported

    $nflx $roku opened starting positions in both . I use 4 different streaming apps and mainly through roku gadget or smart tv options . Still pay for cable services but use the cable 1 percent of the time . Too accustomed to no commercials and quality

  • aliciac Alicia ✨ (@aliciac) reported from San Francisco, California

    I have had trouble streaming just regular CNN on Roku via the app... Is this a known issue or should I be doing something different?

  • bworsowicz Ben Worsowicz (@bworsowicz) reported

    @lukezim I'm staying with my parents this week and the living room tv is not working. I go to the other tv, which only has a roku. They don't have any apps on it other than the one from their cable provider.

  • Ferarum Tenedos (@Ferarum) reported

    @RokuSupport @Thirteen Passport channel does not launch on Roku Premiere. Tried updating channel, reinstalled channel twice, reset Roku device twice, reset wifi network. any known issues with the Thirteen channel on Roku?

    @Xfinity I switched to metronet and have not had to reset or wait for a buffer since . Seriously yall are so bad my wife bought a roku .

  • Anish_Tiwari Anish Tiwari (@Anish_Tiwari) reported

    @adi_mera_naam Very true. Video is a much more difficult game as well. Audio doesn’t demand your full attention, video does. So failure to entice the customer can lead to disastrous consequences. There’s also the issue of time commitment. IMO Netflix is competing with reels & tiktok & not Roku

  • bienhaseyo bienhaseyo vaxxed and 2x boosted (@bienhaseyo) reported

    Is it just me, or is @Viki down? I have a Roku TV, and I deleted Viki, reinstalled it, and it still isn't opening. It works fine on my phone. Hey, @Roku - is the problem on your side?

  • tzwilhelm Teddy (@tzwilhelm) reported

    @SNYtv please fix your Roku App! Watching the game on a 10 minute delay is not fun. Sincerely, Every single Mets fan

  • nick_zephyr Nick Zephyr (he/them) (@nick_zephyr) reported

    @Kris_Lito @hankgreen I know this sounds counter productive, but I work in streaming, an smart tvs are the worst streaming devices. You b pay for the picture, software is an after thought. Dedicated streaming devices like roku works best, and will work in any TV.

  • mets2022 LFGM (@mets2022) reported from Brooklyn, New York

    The delay on the @Roku @SNYtv app is really going to be a problem later in the season @RokuSupport…

  • experien_CEZ MaRa CeZ, RN (@experien_CEZ) reported

    @Viki, please fix the Viki app on Roku.

  • GmaSueInVegas Desert Progressive 💙🌊 (@GmaSueInVegas) reported

    @laurenboebert I signed up for CNN+. The only issue I have is that it isn't available on Roku, but I can fix that by buying an Amazon Stick.

  • true_sea True Blue Sea 🌊🌊🌊🌊 (@true_sea) reported

    I was trying to watch @CNN on @Roku again. The new interface is not working properly, even after going through the multiple steps to get to live streaming broadcasts. What comes up? "This video not available right now. Please try again later." Over to @MSNBC...

  • iam_kawal_ Kawal (@iam_kawal_) reported

    Why does the Roku remote work so slowly, you gotta plan out what specific hour you wanna watch something this **** is crazy

    I don't think the @BritBox_US Android app is ready for "primetime". Seems every other time I start it, I have to log in again. I don't have that issue on the Roku or the LG TV app.

  • mattcia0075 Matt Ciarelli (@mattcia0075) reported

    @LMM1062 Oh there were issues. No Roku app, no iOS app, and if you wanted to watch in a browser you couldn’t have ANY extensions active. And you couldn’t stream the news. There’s a lot of content I wanted to watch among the documentaries but I guess that’s not happening. Dammit.

  • MitchSahara Keith Nelson (@MitchSahara) reported

    @Sling Get Sling app fixed so we can watch OTA channels on our $2000 Vizio OLED smart TV including the AirTV Anywhere recording. The only way we can do it is a $39 Roku stick which doesn’t work worth a darn for OTA recording. We’ve been patient but may switch back to YouTube TV.
