Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
SilentObserver (@Silent0bsrvr) reportedActually I’ll help you. It’s all Roku and smart tvs that seem to have it the worst. Unwatchable on anything other than iOS or web browser.
-
Krys Frei ⛦ 🍁 🇺🇦 (@FreiKrystian) reportedLesson of the day. Either get a plain ol'tv. No internet. Just a screen. OR get a smart TV. W the "roku" type things coming out there is no use for what I call Dumb Smart TVs cause they don't even want to work with Roku. 😤 This is not an official review or anything. Just annoyed
-
MissCrayon 🌊🇺🇸 (@moughthere) reportedTrouble shooting the Roku. Couldn't get the internet to connect. Finally figured out the Roku light wasn't on. Unplugged it and plugged it back in. Now works. Listening to SiriusXM.

-
Bill Rubin (@Mister_Bill) reported@ChooHostLevi @SteveScottNEWS @nbc I've noticed that on my Fire stick as well, but raising the volume fixes it. Are you on a Roku? I had Googled the problem with the app and found that there is a solution for that, but not for the Fire.

Legal Screaming (@legallynotpam) reported@first_sausage Dang I’ve never had this but pretty cool hat everyone knew the issue. Fwiw, we have Roku TVs (TCLs) and they’re amazing and pretty damn cheap (Costco). We actually returned a smart Samsung to get another Roku one bc it’s so much better and haven’t had any issues w our consoles.

Hawksfan2021 (@hawksfan2021) reported@Roku You wanna know why I have a problem with Roku basically banning porn on thier platform.

David Lee Simmons (@dlsnola504) reported.@Roku any reason why my device refuses to connect with my Wi-Fi signal? Out of nowhere. Tried Googling and those fixes don't work.
-
Ukraine WILL Win!!! (@chuckheffernan) reported@RokuSupport I have two Roku Ultra’s that the captions changed so it does not make sense that it is a problem with the units. 99.9% sure that the problem is a problem with your setup. All support people ALWAYS assume that it is the customers fault. That is why most of your problems continue.
-
amy (@aimless_egret) reportedAccuRadio will no longer open on Roku. Have deleted and reinstalled app. Didn't work.
