Skippy QSB (@Skippyqsb) reported. @Roku Why did you mess up the main menu? Now I've got a bunch of stuff, I don't want, that I have to scroll through to get to my apps, and I can't remove or move them. Also the app icons are smaller? Seriously? Fix this, please, and stop messing with our menus. #Roku

cShell (@conchShell11) reported@Roku The May 8, 2026 software update ****** up the HDMI CEC, so that it no longer allows me to control the VOLUME or MUTE for my audio receiver with my Roku remote. After doing a Factory Reset, it STILL doesn't work. HDMI CEC is no longer in the settings. WTF? Please FIX this ASAP!
-
Kyle Lambert (@kylelambertkc) reported@Roku Now, with this new thing, when I turn off the tv it comes back on. Also, many functions that used to work with Alexa are gone. This is not an upgrade, it's an inconvenience. I have three ultimate boxes all doing the same thing. I had better not have to start unplugging the TV.
-
Chris Nalwasky (@ChrisNalwasky) reported@Roku @FOXSports fix your app. I signed in 5 times and it’s not working.
-
Reigh S. (@ILoveIdahoSpuds) reported@Roku hello, whatever forced update that was just received by my Ultra just bricked my device. Factory reset not working. Error 023.4. “Reset to factory settings” fails. Any suggestions?
-
MDV (michael delvecchio (@Mdvecchio1) reported@Roku staying in a rental with a roku tv. Absolutely awful quality and user experience. This brand is toast lol what a piece of ****
-
Salt Bae of the ******* (@thisiskenzo_) reportedAight im tired of tweeting about this. @Crunchyroll @Roku YALL HAVE ONE WEEK TO FIX THIS ROKU APP BEFORE I PERMANENTLY END MY SUBSCRIPTION
-
Rych Rage (@RychRage) reported@Roku @jjscomedy Roku, we shouldn't have to connect to the internet to watch OTA channels. Please fix this. If there is an internet outage, which does happen, then Roku users are screwed from even our local OTA channels.
-
Autistic Addie 🍉😷🇵🇸💜 (@ghostonthstereo) reported@Roku Again, your messages are shut off, but I’ll just deal with the problem. It’s not worth all this back and forth hassle.
-
Mark Tapanes (@MarkTapanes) reported@RokuSupport @Roku I’ve emailed 5x on case 00135722 and then yesterday I got an email asking if I still need help. Still need help- thanks!
-
Atul K. Verma (@atveusa) reported@Roku your streaming stick is not working and I can’t find a way to return it. Your support page is asking to speak with someone but the number is not connecting. Not a good support model I see
-
Hi, I am Daniel (@bigbroncosfan) reportedUgh. What did @Roku do to their interface? It is unusable.
-
Melanie Morgan (@MelMMorgan1) reported@fuboTV @Roku @AskAmex Amex, fuboTV and Roku will not cancel my subscription. They each say via bot chat that the other has to do it. But no one will. Can you just block payment? Or where/how can I get help to cancel my subscription?
-
Matt Pierce (@MattPierceblog) reportedThis entire @F1 and @Apple agreement has been fine broadcast wise but it's this entire bullshit around it being forced into another subscription, lagging latency when using a smart TV, and crap. Just give me my F1 app on @Roku with a single sign in and one reasonable subscription
-
Ryan Paredez (@RyanParedez) reported@foxone @Roku the foxone app runs bad on the roku. Constant errors. Error:PL--28
-
Brittney (@hope_britt) reported@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
-
Javier 🌱 (@janilom81) reported@foxone @FIFAWorldCup My apologies Fox. The app issue is on @Roku.

Dannics (@DANNICSX) reported@rokudoesnothing @SpaceSama @gekiko_bathory Thank you Roku. I agree. dialing things back to drama doesnt solve things. doesnt matter from whom.i just got riled up and apologize. i hope others actually involved and knowing more who dials what can be of rightious help for both being this awful situation.

wizard who hates ai (@0U0S0E0R0) reported@Roku @AMinecraftMovie @WBHomeEnt nobody ******* cares fix your load times
-
Rikki Ratliff (@rikkiratliff) reported@james37144 @Roku It's working for a lot of people but as Glenn said on radio and on the Commuity page it still needs polishing but we tried to get it up in time to work out the kinks before the special.
-
Shakingmyhead (@mitchroachmr2) reported@paramountplus @ufc is not working on any @Roku devices. Works perfectly on my iPhone. Figure it out! I’ve completed all troubleshooting possibilities.
-
Moe's Place (@MeetYouAtMoes) reported@theblaze Please tell me why your app on @Roku has CONSTANT buffering problems. It's the only streaming service I have that does this. Every show, every day, I have to back out of the live show and come back in every 10 to 15 minutes because of buffering. It's making all the shows I dearly love completely unwatchable. Please respond, or I'm going to have to cancel, because there is just no point paying for this.
-
Cream the Barber (@creamthebarber) reported@Roku Just bought a new stick just a few months ago, and it’s already taken a crap on me. Freezes all the time, and now doesn’t pick up my WiFi. It was fine when I first got it, now it just doesn’t work. And this is about the 4th stick that’s done this. Really terrible. Smh.
-
Drew Schuyler (@drewsky1) reported@Roku when do you think you'll get this audio issue figured out? getting real annoying to have to stop and restart because of the audio glitches
