  • kerokeroghostx aquamaniac (@kerokeroghostx) reported

    8/ were too caught up on their own greed and on oppressing their own people. so then, all these problems end up being dumped on the young generation. if u think about it, roku was sorta like obama in that on the outside hes cool when really he was complicit in so much evil...

  • AssistantDude Assistant Dude (@AssistantDude) reported

    @TheBuffaloNews The CBS app on Roku will get you what's live on Ch. 4 with the sign in credentials of a local TV provider that's not Dish. Easy to work around if you have family using Spectrum. Also, Dish & DirecTv will give a discount on your bill until this is over.

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja (@CurryInTurry) reported

    @ManCityWomen As usual video not working on Amazon Firestick or Roku. I'm watching it on iPad. Why oh why does it never work????

  • sjessup1105 Steve Jessup (@sjessup1105) reported

    @Sammyj0393 Yeah firesticks are terrible. I’ve heard Apple TV and roku are pretty good but idk. I like the convenience of everything being on my phone and just streaming it to my tv

  • JillJillweber18 Jill weber (@JillJillweber18) reported

    @BuzzFeed HBO Max still isn’t on Roku. The worst service

  • bitandbang Tierney Cyren 🍑 (@bitandbang) reported

    For example, Roku’s remote has a headphone jack. Sucks if you have no headphones that connect with a 3.5mm cable. Shockingly, I have three very different Bluetooth devices that work in very different ways with my phone. Would be wonderful if I could just reuse those.

  • K_DoubleU13 D-fens (@K_DoubleU13) reported

    @spotifypodcasts @Spotify How the hell do I watch this on my roku home device in my liiving room?!?! Worst interface ever.

  • _jvm2222 James M. (@_jvm2222) reported

    @netflix There's a problem with preview feature while using the app on a roku, tv or phone. Suppose you're just surfing & mature content starts to preview? It happened to me in front of grandchildren, this needs a disabling feature in settings immeadiately, no excuses! No excuses

  • Skat716 A Lex (@Skat716) reported

    @Google why can't I connect my new pixel 4a5g to my roku? All my other devices connect instantly... Do I have to return my pixel??? Please tell me how to fix this?

  • spyder01905 Bryan (@spyder01905) reported

    @TCLNA_Support bought two 55S535 sets. Speaking with support about one of them due to issues with it shutting itself off. Second one now doing same. Clearly a problem with the brand itself. Don't need more help just warning people. Will never buy this brand again. #tcl #roku

  • edgeofcoaching Dave Kaká (@edgeofcoaching) reported

    @OpenSoccerFdn Oh. I’ve never had a problem with it. I stream it through Roku TV. I can see why being a former mag subscriber would cause direct issues to you casting though.

  • Liborprivate Liborprivate (@Liborprivate) reported

    $LITE so lumentum makes the stuff work and its valued at 7B barely and $ROKU at $40B. Same financials , come on lumentum, just fxcking make your own roku box, it will cost you 10 bucks to make

  • BrooksEnallia enallia brooks (@BrooksEnallia) reported

    @Roku my Ruku Express streaming bar is not working. You guys don't have customer service I can call...there seems to be no related problems. I just brought the Express today and I have been stuck on reboot mode for the longest! I have tried restarting it. I need help!

  • DaveWeLike DaveWeLike (@DaveWeLike) reported

    @dcweller Additionally you could cast or Airplay HBO Max to your Roku. Either way you look at it it's a low cost fix for a service that's going to be extremely expensive to you in the long term. 🥂

  • RockSolidDem 𝑾𝒊𝒔𝒆𝑴𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒄 (@RockSolidDem) reported

    @PlutoTV Doesn't work with Roku 2 remote control

  • kuwtymel Ty (@kuwtymel) reported

    .@Roku @hbomax can y’all work out your issues?

  • ekeleonu Eky (@ekeleonu) reported

    @Roku @DAZN_CA I have a Roku operated TV and it wont let me watch a replay on DAZN. I really do not know why we have been quiet on this because i could see discussions about this issue on social media. Please fix the issue

  • MosquitoKiltU iMosquito22 (@MosquitoKiltU) reported

    @rusty4104 I use Roku 4K. No issues whatsoever

  • GrantGHurst Grant Hurst (@GrantGHurst) reported

    @FUNimation Your Roku app needs some work. I cant get halfway through an episode before getting kicked.

  • shawnthe_epic 🥇 Dope Peddler 🚴🐐 (@shawnthe_epic) reported

  • rhinoguy40 Chris Ecko (@rhinoguy40) reported

    EVERYTIME i pick up my #roku remote... I hit the mute button! Worst button placement ever!

  • joshpson Josh Pearson (@joshpson) reported

    @YouTubeTV why does your roku app always buffer? I have gigabit internet. About to lose a subscriber, I can stream the same games on the ESPN or fox app no problem.

  • AssistantDude Assistant Dude (@AssistantDude) reported

    @StillTalkinTV @TheBuffaloNews Easy to work around with a Roku or similar streaming app and the credentials of a family member with Spectrum. Also, Dish and DirecTv will give discounts on your bill until this is over but you have to ask them.

  • ChaneeWinnuh $upernova. (@ChaneeWinnuh) reported

    @_DimiDior @hbomax @Roku Thanks, that does work! The only thing is I already paid for my hbo max subscription but Hulu is trying to make me pay again to add it to my plan. 😕

  • TheRealMe11 The Real Me (@TheRealMe11) reported

    @kimmasters @THR I agree. Nothing on Hbomax that I want to see and they don’t even work on Roku.

  • imsongofsongs Vicki (@imsongofsongs) reported
