Love @CBSNews but their terrible audio synch on the CBSN @Roku app makes it like watching a poorly dubbed Bruce Lee movie.

@VuduSupport I can't get the Vudu app to open on my Android phone. Going on 2 days now. I uninstalled and reinstalled yet still only get the splash screen. Works on web and my Roku. Is there an issue with Android devices?

I really wish @Roku would allow me to have @hbomax so that I can login and watch things. Can we work through the things and get this done please. K. Thanks.

Dear @onepeloton and @Roku, Please make a login switch for my wife and I. You’ll be paying my lawyer’s fee for the divorce if you don’t address it. Cheers.

@hulu_support been having a constant issue with Roku streaming stick where an ad break will interupt slightly early and then glitch out. When finished it formats the screen to be about ¼-⅓ size always the top left side. Have to stop playing then resume to fix it

@Roku when I’m watching @hulu why does my screen zooms in every single time a comercial breaks ends. It’s really annoying. There is 20 pages of people with the same problem on the Roku forum. Do something.

@eifortune @ATT Brads having problems with this. I think he said hbo is fighting with roku and Apple TV so he can’t watch it anymore

@THR Cool but you can’t even download on Roku or Fire Stick, two of the biggest streaming devices. Fix it.

Frustrated at my @Roku 4. It keeps freezing and giving me problems. Performed a factory reset, painstakingly customized all my channels with account information, and now the device decides it doesn't like my MicroSD card.

@aliceodea @hbomax Purchase hboembership account outside of roku and then sign into roku with that login. Apple TV pulls the same BS with several channels/apps and that’s my workaround.

What is the baby boomer or 1800’s equivalent to having to help your mother-in-law understand how the Roku works every week? I feel like that is something no generation has had to do before.

@RokuSupport our apps seem to be taking longer to load in the last couple weeks but we haven't changed internet, etc. Could this be a Roku device issue?

@Erin_Goss1 It's not that there's a problem with it, it's just that Roku severely limits your capabilities to only their selected apps.

I like having a Roku tv but the worst part is that if you turn it off by accident after the screen has gone to sleep, it takes you 15 minutes to go back to what you were watching. Especially if it's not on Netflix.

So HBO GO is no longer supported on my device starting 07/31. Apparently HBO is pushing @hbomax now. Should be no problem. Go to download HBO MAX on my ROKU only to find out that it’s not supported on either ROKU or the $AMZN fire tv?? Wtf???

@HBOMaxHelp help! I have HBOMax through my At&t fiber account. I've been enjoying it on the old app. But I can't figure out how to use my existing login on the new Max app on Roku? There's only a choice between a 7 day trial, and another option to subscribe again at full price?
