@katebevan I bought it via Roku Box Version. I don't have to type passwords into anything. The wi-fi does not drop out. Since the revamp (greenish screen) had a couple of Problems. The newer devices don't sound good this box is 4 years old I dare not replace it.

@Roku I’m assuming that we have Ads baked into the OS of our TVs as to help make these make a profit since your selling them at a relatively low price? Simular to how Xbox uses their paid membership to make back the cash that they lose on each Xbox series X?

@HBOMaxHelp nothing specific to an HBO Mac subscription is accessible right now via ROKU or iPhone. Conjuring, Hacks, both just loop to the thumbnail on ROKU. On iPhone, says select “All of HBO Max” before it’ll play but that button doesn’t work. Not happy.

@vol_jr My problem was My wife had the Disney + bundle through Disney and I had Hulu at one time through Roku. It was a billing disaster and Hulu couldn’t help at all. I got it figured out though in the 5th inning yesterday 👍

@michaeltemkin @mgsiegler I was using HBO Max on Roku Ultra last night and noticed a weird problem when trying to go rewind a bit, but I did get there. However HBO Max offers some unique problems on Roku that they still haven’t fixed. Still sounds far more usable than this problem with AppleTV.

@Hisense_USA I have your newer Roku ultra HD tv and my husbands remote for his tv constantly controls it, but not even accurately, he also doesn’t even have your brand of tv or a Roku. We have tried multiple workarounds and nothing seems to work

The HBO Max app for Roku is absolute garbage. Takes about 5 minutes for the app to even load and then another 5 minutes for whatever I'm watching to start. Some experience way worst than what I experience when using the app. Using the app on my Xbox is smooth though.
