Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mortgagethat Real Estate Disrupted (@mortgagethat) reported

    @stronghobbit @InvestingGems @DaveWeLike Funny because I have a smart TV and I still us a ROKU device. Far less clunky. ROKU is so inexpensive - one time cost - I don't think switching costs are an issue.

  • BekkahRose Rebekkah Boxt (@BekkahRose) reported

    @hbomax why is your #roku app SO terrible!? It seems HBO has been around too long with too much $ for this level of trouble 😔

  • mikejjennings Mike Jennings (@mikejjennings) reported

    @OfficialWRC are you going to be improving your apps or making them available on more devices? Doesn't work on my Nvidia Shield, doesn't work properly on Samsung and LG TVs, not available on PS5, Roku, HiSense TV. I want to watch #ypres and #wrclive and you make it so hard #wrc

  • sanjaromin Jason (is fully vaccinated) (@sanjaromin) reported

    @TX_Seattle_Girl @mariner_uk @MLBTV I route mlb tv thru a vpn in my browser, then run an hdmi from mu laptop to TV...casting doesn't work on my old roku or TV lol

  • PartyChihuahua emergency party chihuahua 🇺🇸 (@PartyChihuahua) reported

    @YouTube whose brilliant idea was it to change the TV/Roku app to take away "hold to fast-forward/rewind" and make me mash the buttons repeatedly? What an awful change, please undo it.

  • 4ever2paradise 🌊 Bitchn Cold As Ice 🌊 (@4ever2paradise) reported

    @kirstiealley Can you help me maybe, Please ? I'm looking for SOMETHING on Roku...... I cannot locate. I've spent days searching. The POSTS say it's on Roku, (otherwise I'm with Spectrum - not there.) I have app on phone, it just would be easier to view via TV.

  • rachelbbridge Rachel Bridge (she/her) (@rachelbbridge) reported

    @ThatRationalFan @no1charltonfan I’ve got awful distortion even on the Roku… the new studio looks lovely, but would be nice if they could fix the most important aspects too.

  • Cash_clam Cash (@Cash_clam) reported

    Come on roku work for me baby. Lemme watch Rampage.

  • the5thColumnist Richard W. Woodley 🇨🇦🌹🚴‍♂️ (@the5thColumnist) reported

    @Roku I cannot find an email address for Roku support to deal with an issue regarding Britbox on Roku (works on my PC via the web but not on Roku)

  • RyFreems R.W._McFreeman_III (@RyFreems) reported

    @WaddupItsVio @michellesias Hey ladies i thought i'd as if you can help me. My Sis in Law in Colombia doesn't have a smart TV, but she needs to get Netflix. They don't have Roku down there and i don't know about firestick. Any idea what streaming devices ppl use in COL?

  • EMemer9000 Memer (@EMemer9000) reported

    does the paramount+ video quality just normally look really bad on the website. Normally it looks fine on my Roku but on the website it looks like 360p. They should really add an option to change that or fix it on their own

  • Sefarkas327 Sarah Farkas (@Sefarkas327) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I subscribe through Hulu and there is no sign-in option on the Roku HBO MAX app. Every time I try to play anything it asks me to subscribe. This app never works for me—please help!

  • realhamzakhan Hamza (@realhamzakhan) reported

    @NMCreborn never used firestick but this happened to me on chromecast and using HDMI cable. No issues with the DAZN app on Roku and LG

  • fuboTVsupport fuboTV Support (@fuboTVsupport) reported

    @RSmyth22 @fuboTV If the issue persists: 1. From Roku Home, highlight fuboTV and press star (*) button on your remote 2. Select Remove channel 3. Go to Settings > System > System Update > Check now 2/3

  • TheIsabellaWay Isabella Way 🥠 (@TheIsabellaWay) reported

    How do I get @hbomax to work again on my tv w/ @Roku??? It’s been 3 weeks. Sigh.

  • RonHigh Ron High (@RonHigh) reported

    @TeamYouTube Thanks for the response. I am seeing the problems on the YouTube app which cannot be updated due to the dispute with Roku right? I tried accessing YouTubeTV through the YouTube app and it looks fine.

  • RSmyth22 Ryan Smyth (@RSmyth22) reported

    @fuboTVsupport @fuboTV Two titles are Deadly Women and Evil Lives Here. It is anything on ID Discovery I try to watch thru VOD. It will work with Chromecast but not with my Roku.

  • sims2310 Quillon (@sims2310) reported

    @GINGA0418 I bet, it sucks when the roku devices start acting up. I had to upgrade all my devices a few weeks ago because I was having issues with them.

  • the5thColumnist Richard W. Woodley 🇨🇦🌹🚴‍♂️ (@the5thColumnist) reported

    @Roku I cannot find an email address for Roku support to deal with an issue regarding Btitbox on Roku (works on my PC via the web but not on Roku)

  • JonMisterek Taxi Guy (@JonMisterek) reported

    @Gizmodo only if you got some lame ROKU device but that's a known issue and now there is a RESOLUTION

  • MakenzieDrake2 𝚖𝚊𝚔𝚎𝚗𝚣𝚒𝚎 ☺︎︎ (@MakenzieDrake2) reported

    why ******** won’t netflix work on my Roku TV

  • jewame Jeremy (@jewame) reported

    @RokuSupport I just bought a 32 inch tcl roku tv and my cable channels have picture but only static for the sound I've tried restarting the tv and unplugging and re plugging in the cable cord but it does not help

  • Lou_Vilardo Louis Vilardo (@Lou_Vilardo) reported

    @RockyMountViews I use FireStick and am not familiar with Roku devices. But, if you have the option of powering it through your TV’s USB port, it will shut down when you turn off the TV. If your YouTube account has been hacked, that’s a separate issue.

  • Hope_incarnate Average Heavensward enjoyer (@Hope_incarnate) reported

    8. Roku's main goal was to help make the world a place his village would no longer have to hide from, now he just wants to help as many as he can, meet as many as he can. 9. being the wol/adventurer lol he is with aymeric though so yknow.... hes never short on gil if he needs it

  • the5thColumnist Richard W. Woodley 🇨🇦🌹🚴‍♂️ (@the5thColumnist) reported

    @Britbox_CA @Roku With some help from your support team it seems to be working again. Thank you.

  • talesofaprinny Prinny (@talesofaprinny) reported

    I think there’s an issue with the Xbox app of amazon prime videos. There’s really frame rate issues with it but everything runs fine on the Roku version of the same app. @xbox @PrimeVideo

  • SiebeUS Siebe41 (@SiebeUS) reported

    @chriskerber @GetSpectrum Meh. It's really the only streaming option that gets ballys. Their app sucks but the login from it works ok. App on certain platforms doesn't have a channels. No roku app anymore iirc

  • JmsNic Phoenic (@JmsNic) reported

    @NOWHelpTeam hi Help Team, weird bug - logged into two different now tv accounts on my roku tv stick and whenever it’s loaded up over the past few days it’s automatically signed into one account, even if I’ve signed out and into my other one. It’ll just default back

  • Gregg71a Gregg (@Gregg71a) reported

    @PlutoTV Sure wish I could watch this But on my @Roku TV, it doesn't work well. Audio cuts out, and then app exits back to main screen. The network connection to the TV is ~40Mbps. App probably uses more memory than TV can handle, so I am deleting PlutoTV.
