    @youngallison63 Really? I have a ROKU player. Haven’t had a problem. Hadn’t heard that before. I got the ROKU unit after I dumped Comcast. Love it.

  • DeeConservedude The Conservative Dude (@DeeConservedude) reported

    @arikcannon @peacockTV You use Roku? I didn't have any issues

  • marmarsraine Amari (@marmarsraine) reported

    Roku is the worst service I have ever dealt with in my life. Idk how yall deal with it. Just get a fire stick. I'm so frustrated right now. I just want to watch anime and I've spent like 20 mins downloading and trying to navigate the vrv app

  • melvinrocker Melvin (@melvinrocker) reported

    @1moregayshark @weareangelcity Hi, so I found another way. go to CBS Sports, check for the game it will require to sign in, use your paramount+ login. That's what it requested from my side on Roku

  • KeithHu45079131 Keith Hunt (@KeithHu45079131) reported

    Having issues with their Roku devices? I feel your pain. Seems impossible to reach them. Their website and troubleshooting pages are useless. I found success looking up their Facebook page and direct messaging them from there, took a few days, but they responded! 🥳 #Roku

  • brieburnham Brie (like the cheese) (@brieburnham) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Jerrod Carmichael: Rothaniel. I tried watching it on a TV (using Roku), and then tried to log into HBOMax on a computer. Both ways had terrible captions that only got about 50% of what was being said and were significantly delayed.

    @mollypearlman I finally got it working on my computer by logging out, logging in, and then clicking it from the schedule section. Still not working through the Hulu app on my roku.

  • JFAXCTS Jeffrey Thomas (@JFAXCTS) reported

    @Hpc2sweet Roku has no issues at all

  • RickBrannan Rick Brannan (@RickBrannan) reported

    @fantasyfolklore We are not in the apple 'ecosystem' (spouse & daughter have iPhones, though) so can't comment on that solution, but have Roku and no complaints. 2 Roku TVs (smaller, got a deal at WalMart) and they've been great. Worst problem is kids forgetting where they stuffed the remote.

  • AerynKellye *sips fascist tears* (@AerynKellye) reported

    @AlisonF_NOLA Yuuuuup. And something switched in the settings on their end that won’t let my Roku work.

  • Ramitnow S S (@Ramitnow) reported

    A gaunt dragon with terrible eyes named Roku

  • mattvs87 Matt Van Stone (@mattvs87) reported

    @DIRECTVhelp getting a weird sound coming thru consistently on my TCL Roku TV when using the DirecTV stream app. It's super frustrating. Is this a known issue or are there any solutions? Sounds like an effect from an old video game or something

  • Danny__Gokey TVOBSESSED (#SaveTheOA) (@Danny__Gokey) reported

    Hey @netflix since you keep raising your prices is there any chance you could put some of that money into developing a version of the @roku app that doesn’t crash or freeze every five minutes? Thanks.

  • amclainmck McLain🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 (@amclainmck) reported

    Help!!! what is the best tv service out there? Our dish box died tonight so now we have 3 tvs we can’t watch. I figure it’s a good time to change to roku or something else?

  • st_czaja Grumpyolman (@st_czaja) reported

    @Houlasrule2 @Brandon55780121 I use roku...never had a problem in the 8 years I've used it

  • hexsyn Disheveled By Dawn (@hexsyn) reported

    @ringofhonor When I try to log into the ROH app on my Roku it states session has expired please try again. Is there a work around?

  • MikeAnthony1013 Mike Parisi (@MikeAnthony1013) reported

    @CBSSports All CBS streaming apps are GARBAGE! Figure it out. For a huge broadcast corporation you think the mobile app/Roku app would work. Audio is always 10-15 seconds ahead of the video. Y'all suck and make it really hard to watch a big game like Duke UNC.

  • JRThurner John Thurner (@JRThurner) reported

    Hey @cineplexstore, Your app through Roku is 100% broken right now and your online tech support is either completely overwhelmed or totally non-existent, and since I can't tell which it really doesn't matter.

  • RobsSportsShow RobSportsShow (@RobsSportsShow) reported

    @RockthisM @Hpc2sweet I was having issue on computer no issues on roku

  • RockthisM 🤘RoCktHiS_mIkE🤘 (@RockthisM) reported

    @jessithebuckeye The app on the tv went black for me too. I had to plug in the roku and so far no problems

  • melegner melegner (@melegner) reported

    I bring this up because I recently discovered that someone went to the trouble to remaster the entire Baywatch collection using the original film, and it’s available for free on Roku if you’re willing to tolerate weird commercials about pharmaceutical drugs
