Anyone else have issues with @Roku remotes? 3rd time replacing it and now the one I bought in January is broken and they won't replace it either!
JRC_Lanoka (@JRCsystems) reported 7 minutes ago
Hey @Roku and @prageru @DennisPrager - Did you know that apparently Roku is #blocking Prageru app? The app starts, but #anything you try watching crashes immediately and leaves you back at the main screen. Tried updating. Tried uninstall/ reinstall. Doesn't work!
Dane001a (@dane001a) reported 9 minutes ago
@Abinitio12 @Roku I can’t get Ryukyu live TV to work
xxx (@xxyumhaj) reported 10 minutes ago
@PrachiR46315213 Mein kisi ko Kiu Roku I haven’t seen any post like that, and as I said, idc about Hania, diljit or the film. I found your statement to be dumb so that’s why I quoted your post, you should’ve been clearer about what you meant if you have a problem with me questioning it
Beautiful Frequency (@devonschramm) reported 11 minutes ago
@RokuSupport Is there currently an outage? An automatic update on my Roku device keeps failing.
Shakingmyhead (@mitchroachmr2) reported 12 minutes ago
@paramountplus @ufc is not working on any @Roku devices. Works perfectly on my iPhone. Figure it out! I’ve completed all troubleshooting possibilities.
Sarah with an h (@SarahDoesKC) reported 14 minutes ago
This is a total first world problem, but I lose my mind that it takes 12 minutes and 85 clicks to finally get to the show I’m trying to watch and one accidental step of my dog to wind up on Roku Greatest Hits.
Brian Blanchard (@BrianB01535231) reported 14 minutes ago
@DebbieBelin @EpochTV @SiyamakKhorrami Roku TV has streaming Epoch News channels. Please help them do well. & Watch NTD as well. Their news office was Firebombed, showing they are over the Enemy Target
A Shubert (@ashubert) reported 16 minutes ago
@YouTube @RokuSupport @Roku Also when watching YouTube and listening on private listening the controls on the iPhone app don't work either. You can't pause a video replay a video backspace you can't exit nothing you can see your finger moving on the pad but it doesn't do anything. Only w YT
NESN Support (@NESNSupport) reported 20 minutes ago
@JackODonohue @NESN @NESNsucks Hi, this issue was fixed in the Roku version 3.9 update. Please update your Roku device to the new version and restart. Thank you
Brittney (@hope_britt) reported 23 minutes ago
@DIRECTV & @Roku rcount your days! Why would you allow a customer to sign up via Roku and thru your services for the same exact product. Why tf would i sign up for the same sorry *** service twice! & for @Roku not to issue refunds after I’ve been charged twice is crazy
Intellectual Honesty Is My Love Language (@goldenrule108) reported 24 minutes ago
@F1 Roku app is broken. Can’t sign in.
Mets Police (@metspolice) reported 26 minutes ago
@TeamYouTube nothing broken. Just want to switch the player (Roku) to 1.25x and have it stay that way forever. Thanks!
DeluluDad (@BagLampPillow) reported 28 minutes ago
Fix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.
SynRen (@SynRen) reported 31 minutes ago
@Roku I brought a brand new Roku TV on 07/05/24, now it does not work. It has a black screen. I called Roku and did all the troubleshooting, and they said the hardware is dead. I think they should replace their defective product. Yet it says it should last 5 years minimum.

@Roku FIX your apps already. ViaPlay, Howdy. Hire some good techs & earn your money. Two days now. Shame on you. @RokuSupport & tell your AI bot what go sod yourself means...

@Roku I’ve seen dollar stores in poor areas with higher quality product than you
Dr. Dani (@chenIeguy) reported 34 minutes ago
just had to factory reset the tv because it just wouldn’t update and literally wouldn’t let me leave the update screen 🫶🏻🫶🏻 @Roku i have some really awful words for you
D.A.R.E Capo (@YungYinkv) reported 35 minutes ago
Hey @Roku you may want to fix this. Howdy showing the wrong movie 😡
TweeterFeeder 🏴‍☠️ (@FeedTheTweeter) reported 37 minutes ago
@Roku tvs are the worst. Buy anything else.
Witchmaster (@Witchmaster) reported 38 minutes ago
@Roku @caseyrosewilson Latest update on Roku has brought on tons of issues. Can't remove finished listings from continue watching, completing episodes goes on to random programs, etc. And periodically it just resets itself. How about rolling back to stability?
Jam Pol (@JohnSamont7) reported 40 minutes ago
@Crunchyroll Please fix your **** on Roku. Why does my show keep playing even when I turn off my t.v? Also why can’t I skip intros and outros??? You know people just FF those sometimes right???
Brent Stewart (@BrentStewart17) reported 41 minutes ago
@Roku where are you with fixing the issues with @MLBTV? I can’t even watch the @cubs game tonight.
Al Horford Pacino (@alpacinogrunt) reported 45 minutes ago
@MLBTV FIX YOUR ******* ROKU APP. JESUS
Ken Brown (@Ken_Brown_FL) reported 46 minutes ago
Hey @hulu_support I am unable to log In and your chat folks actually hung up on me. I have not moved yet your app says I have. I do not have this issue with any other app on @Roku . #customerservicefail
austin bb (@popespeed) reported 50 minutes ago
@Sling on @Roku Sling channels with scoreboard inset (e.g. ESPN), the Roku "*" function button does not work (to bring up menu to adjust brightness/other settings). Have to exit to a different channel before I can adjust settings. Is there a fix (or way to disable scoreboards)?
Philip Logan (@philip_logan) reported 52 minutes ago
@MsSariBrooke @Roku I can’t work out how to watch it here in the UK 😩
RyanS (@RyShan24) reported 54 minutes ago
@rumblevideo I have a brand new @Roku tv and can’t watch your podcasts on any speed but 1 fix that ****!
ChuckHerrick (@CbuckHerrick) reported 59 minutes ago
@Roku Help. Return to me freezes and locks up.
🌻🇺🇦Hangry! (@twistedscamp) reported 59 minutes ago
@roku @Walmart Do any of you care that the updated pushed out to the tvs have effectively bricked them? Having to turn a TV off and back on to change a channel is ridiculous. Fix your software!
