    @RepTheDMV @livenowfox Good eye. I am also terribly upset by the piss-poor quality of the breaks on the ROKU Channel. Chopped all to Hell! Does @Roku let AI run it's board? High-School rookies could do a better job!

    @Roku It changed over today and it's absolutely terrible. Everything is all over the place and has messed up my apps and home screen. How do I change it back, cause I'm just getting rid of this TV and will avoid using Roku system and products. You know how to lose customers

    @red_chem_lite @Roku You need a zapper for when they touch it, they will learn which. Our friends have two boxers that were like this and within the week they were broken.

    Why is the @AMC_TV plus app not working on @Roku AMC Plus not working on Roku TV has been a problem for a while now.

    @MLB can you please fix your streaming app for @Roku and Apple TV so they don’t suck? EVERY SINGLE game I watch on ANY of my streaming devices stops at least 3-4 times per game with spinning circle of death. No other apps have buffering problems on my 1GB line and mesh WiFi.

    @RokuSupport @Roku paying for your home monitoring service but your Entry Sensors have been out of stock for TWO YEARS. Frontline support has no answers. I need an escalation manager to contact me about hardware availability. This is a security system, please help.

    I'm hearing @roku is too ****** to handle the 4k that the race was recorded in. Is that the issue?

    @Roku @RokuSupport your product is becoming unusable. Constantly unpairing the remote after exiting an app.

    @Roku Yea i do that all the time…. It’ll work for 1-5/10 turn ons then back to having to manual connect, or restart

    @KirkYuhnke @MatthewKeysLive @Roku Our dumb TV is 10+ years old — biggest issue we’ve ever had: a volume button is a little touchy. We’ve swapped out smart tech multiple times, always on sale. Likely saved us a crazy amount of $$$ in a decade-plus.

    @Roku I saw him flattened on central Roku boulevard on my way home from work RIP

    Finally, @Roku My mother has limited vision. When you force changes to your UI, like putting things in “quick access” you add unnecessary frustration for her and me, because I have to come fix it. Think about your users and not you pocket book or your crappy 20 YO UI devs.

    @Roku @Ka_Le_Jo How to FIX your #ROKU home screen: Go into: -Settings -Home Screen -Recommendation Rows ---> set to HIDE -Quick Access ---> set to HIDE Now everything is back to normal!

    @Roku @meetatmidnights Doesn't work. All I get is the options to close or remove.

    Bryan Wayne (@mrhappybw) reported

    @BrianKemm @Roku Mine is the hdmi ports are corrupted and it is for sure on them as I tried different cable even used a different TV and no issue. If I unplug cables and do an audio/visual reset it will “fix” it for a day then it comes back. It is listed as known issue since update.

    @tacooghost @Roku I've seen where others have watched the episode already. I was thinking it was a problem with the subscription through Roku TV that was the problem.

  • Peter_B_Jones
    Peter Jones (@Peter_B_Jones) reported

    @Roku after being a long time customer for over 15 years and bought over 15 devices from you, the best you can offer is 30% off when one of your most expensive devices stops working because of a hardware issue?!?! Not to mention terrible customer support!!!

    I have had it with @Amazon Fire Stick. I have a subscription to Shudder and Starz. I can no longer play them without buying a new subscription thru Amazon. I have a @Roku TV upstairs and have no issues playing my subscriptions. Today I ordered another Roku controller for downstairs. Shame on you Amazon. Bye fire stick. Just warning anyone who is thinking about fire stick.

    I need to get off of @Roku here in the US. Changing the home page was the last straw. Any suggestions for an alternative? I could use some help.

    @Roku This new Home Screen is terrible

  • FrogSalsa7625
    Frog Salsa (@FrogSalsa7625) reported

    @Roku Dear Roku. Please fix the HDMI issue with Playstation 5! Ever since your new 'improvements', my TV shows a blank screen and repeated attempts cause it to crash and reboot. Also, I hate that I cannot control the way I want the home screen to appear the way it was before.
