Every time I have to tech support for someone's smart tv, roku, fire stick, etc. it renews my resolve to avoid them at all costs. Maybe the higher end ones are better, but all my experiences have been awful controls, slow menus, and arbitrary limitations.

@CNNplus You website sucks. I tried to sign up but it is not working. You added Roku but even the @Roku app thinks it is for CNN only. This could be why the numbers are so low. I GIVE UP

@StevenACohen2 Mr Cohen, can you pass on to SNY that their app DOES NOT WORK on desktops (mine!) and on ROKU streaming the game, it is behind realtime by 60 minutes!!! I don't want to watch youtube replays of games. I want the real deal baby!

If you have @Roku & you have problems adding a channel- the buttons don't work, it won't recognize your logon email etc- TAKE THAT AS A SIGN FROM HEAVEN TO *NOT* ADD THE STATION I didn't do that. I kept clicking until it went thru- & got screwed. So, learn from my mistake.

@TeamYouTube @BismarckRobin I can’t reply for BismarckRobin but we are seeing across different devices. iPhone, Vizio smart tvs, iPad , roku devices all the same issue. Also recorded NBC shows have audio descriptors that can’t be turned off.

@Roku why did you disable the games I paid for when I bought my Roku 3? None of the angry birds games work even though it was a selling point. I was never told they were time limited!

I chose Roku over other streaming platforms because of they huge number of apps/channels they have. MOST ARE WORTHLESS. The obscure ones don't work at all or try to trick you to add them by lying to you. Anyone can author a channel- u could do it now. They take anything.

@JonMontag Not good. The fire stick or Roku both have the MLB app, both cheap. Might give that a shot if they wait until October to fix it 🙄

@Roku why is the USB Power Cable with Long-range Wi-Fi® Receiver out of stock when it is necessary in order for the Roku to work properly? Only got 2 good weeks out of our device before it broke. Extremely disappointed by this product.

@T_Blackmon9 Still no luck when I try that. I have a Roku TV in my living room, can’t get the Bally app to work and recognize my cable account properly. I have a regular TV with a Roku plugged into it in my bedroom. I discovered now that the Bally app/same cable it works fine. 🤯

@hulu_support iPhone 13 pro max and a 65 in tcl roku tv, both up to date on their apps. Keeps saying check your internet connection and try again, both of which are currently working off Wi-Fi on other apps with no issue

@maskmyhood I'm guessing this won't work on the TCL TV that's designed for Roku. But I bet it'll work on my Samsungs.

The app still works well enough that it's taunting me by sending notifications that Spurs are playing (🙄) but won't work on my Android phone or Roku TV so it's definitely not me.

@EvansEric10 @MLBTV Yep. Used to work up until the season started. Using a Roku ultra.

I did some fun things with my Roku that aren't supposed to be possible. If I tweet about them, tho, the company will probably fix the bugs & my hacks won't work anymore.

@hbomax I like the shows a lot, but seriously: I *still* can't turn off autoplay on Roku? It's incredibly aggravating, and you're the only streaming service that fails at this. Please fix it!

@FloRacing @ASCoC @atticaracewyprk One question. Why was the video and audio not synced? Rebooted the Roku still off. Switched to Ocean speedway broadcast and it worked fine. So was I the only one having this issue?

@CBSSports I can not watch Champions league on Roku after signing. Why is that? I am sure you don't have to sign in each month to get my subscription

@whoisadriandev You have to watch on the espn app. But you sign in with your cable login. If you have a smart TV or firestick/roku download espn app.

Hey @SNYtv your app needs some work. It just crashed on my Roku tv went to restart the app and it took me back to the first inning meanwhile the game is in the bottom of the fifth inning. This is a regular occurrence unfortunately

@TennisTV sick of waiting for fixes for the app on multiple platforms - still doesn’t work on Roku or Samsung or LG Smart TVs. Left a 1 star review on Apple Store. The redesign has ruined what was previously a great app and you clearly have no intention of fixing the problems.

The @SNYtv app for Roku is terrible. It needs to do one thing reliably: stream live games. There is no “go live” button. There is no fast forward. @StevenACohen2 please save us from Wilpon mismanagement!

@BaddiesOfDBS Roku would smirk "No not really, would you like to me to "help" you put on some lotion then?"
