    @TCIIIESQ All you need is an app login to the major channels and Roku/google and you’re golden. Can even use the phone while it’s casting.

  • TheRichardSands richard sands (@TheRichardSands) reported

    @thatstef @Ralls_Jim @AMCPlus Yeah it’s awful. No cable no smart TV, no Amazon, no Apple plus—only Roku etc. it’s a real drag

    @AmazonHelp Thanks for the reply. I have been experiencing this for weeks. I thought I had resolved it by removing apps that were suspected to be causing issues. Tonight, I discovered that didn't work. Next time it goes back to Amazon for a full refund and I switch to Roku.

    @HBOMaxHelp Streaming with a Roku and haven’t had problems for months with streaming. Now I renew after a couple weeks lapse due to my ATT trial expiring, and here it is 11 pm PST and the show tries to start, but just pops back to title screen of program. I’m not even trying to watch Matrix!

  • Chazde Chaz (@Chazde) reported

    I’m trying to explain web 3 nfts and digital assets to somebody who doesn’t know how to use the Roku tv remote somebody help me out here lol

  • Pujemin Pujemin🔪 (@Pujemin) reported

  • nana2zeke Nana (@nana2zeke) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Roku, no error messages, just won’t play…seems to be a problem for many on many different types of devices. I don’t need to fix anything on my end 🙄

  • Jenn7_4 Jengle Bells (@Jenn7_4) reported

    @PegRogerio Really? All the reviews I've looked at say Roku is easier. I probably won't be able to work either. Technology hates me.

  • PennymarcyA If u my fren call me Angie 😘 (@PennymarcyA) reported

    If they had the lo-fi hip hop girl scrolling through social media with the Roku sleep background on her screen (change the laptop to a TV) would she still help people study or do homework? 🤔

  • TooFast4Love Dana Collins (@TooFast4Love) reported

    @CherDBlame Nothing worked for my Roku when I had issues either. Damn!

  • anulrich Amanda Ulrich (@anulrich) reported

    @paramountplus your app on the @Roku is terrible. I pay for your service and all I keep getting is #contentunavailable. Not sure why I am paying to watch the same ads over and over again without getting to see the content….

  • jennettefulda Jennette Fulda (@jennettefulda) reported

    Hey @HBOMaxHelp I have a Roku and can't watch The Matrix. Other HBO videos play, but The Matrix gives me the loading dots and then goes back home. Tried restarting Roku. Didn't work. Gave up and watched it on my iPad and don't care anymore, but thought you should know.

  • Kozo8989 Alicia (@Kozo8989) reported

    @pookleblinky YES. Mom got a free roku stick with her cable, I had to set it up for her. Had to call the cable company because they never activated her account on their end for it to work. They wouldn't talk to me because it wasn't my name on the account.

  • newsiestrash96 John (@newsiestrash96) reported

    As with any other Christmas, my sister and I are embarking in our 2021 Terrible Christmas Movie Watch. We are starting off with Twelve Days of Christmas which can be conveniently found on the ROKU Channel.

  • FrankTLA Frank Tsacrios (@FrankTLA) reported

    @CBSNews Your app is not working properly with @Roku and hasn't been for a couple weeks. Your Live News channels will not load. #justsaying Is this another Roku contract issue? #television

  • leelogan1951 Gary L Logan (@leelogan1951) reported

    @Westinghouse_TV @Roku ALL I AM LOOKING FOR IS A REPLACEMENT OF MY 32'' TV..DUE TO THE FACT THAT UPPER MANAGEMENT GAVE ME THE WRONG FACTS TO FIX MY EXISTING TV AND IT WENT TO HEAVEN WITH THE REST OF CHINESES TV'S..

  • AlphaRRCapital1 Alpha R&R Capital (@AlphaRRCapital1) reported

  • Antnehprime Ant (@Antnehprime) reported

    @discoveryplusUK I'm old enough to remember when it was possible to watch programmes like these on the TV. Hurry up and sort your issues out with Roku.

  • President__Cole 👸🏽 (@President__Cole) reported

    So whyyyy is my HBO MAX on my roku not working😒 How the new Matrix🤭

  • btron3030 Benjamin Trecroci (@btron3030) reported

    @AndyB071314 My Roku remote is broken.

  • ItsMeAdamC Adam Calhoun (@ItsMeAdamC) reported

    @hbomax App is broken on Roku. Goto load anything it kicks you back out to the menu.

  • Jenn7_4 Jengle Bells (@Jenn7_4) reported

    Ok. Techie people, bearing in mind I'm a ******* idiot that can't even work the cigarette machine, is a Roku or Firestick easier/better?

  • __KirstenRaye__ Kirsten (@__KirstenRaye__) reported

    @LGUSSupport I have learned that it's not compatible w/o adding Roku or Google. Considering Google data collections history I've decided to invest the additional $100/per month for cable boxes. Hoping LG will go to bat for its customers and work w/the cable comps for a resolution. Thank you

  • TooFast4Love Dana Collins (@TooFast4Love) reported

    @CherDBlame How are you watching it? Asking because I had MAJOR issues with the HBO app and Roku, and when I switched to AppleTV, I didn’t have issues with the HBO app again.

  • mettabeom ᴛʜᴇTASH。 (@mettabeom) reported

    i'm guessing the new beyond live app doesn't work on tv/roku/etc yet like vlive? sucks if so...

  • JustCurious37 Annette (@JustCurious37) reported

    @Peachie100 @maddow It does that if you'reusing a streamingservice. If you have roku, turn you volume mode off. If that doesn't work, exit the app and re-enter.

    Why’s the spotify on my roku crashing again and again when I play the @P_McCulloughMD @joerogan episode, this is not a joke because up until this point I didn’t even know that roku could crash lol
