HBOMax won't work on my Roku. It works on my phone and my iPad but won't play on the TV. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. I've turned it off and off again. I give up.

@thePeaDock I read a while ago that HBO Max & Roku were still working on a deal so the app would work on Roku. I thought that was solved, but maybe there are still issues? It sux & I hope for all you Roku users that it's resolved soon.

Anyone having problems running YouTube on their Roku? Besides me. I know YouTube TV 📺 and Roku have issues but YouTube itself now? I restarted and still not running. Pandora works, Netflix and Hulu are fine too.

@lndsullivan @Xfinity Had a helluva time last night; it loads on the Roku but then fails on individual programming. Finally got into Hacks, after only receiving audio, but fear I'll have trouble picking up where I left off (ep 3, great series).

Why is HBO Max so impossible to use on Roku? I get bumped out of it all the time, ff/rew/pause don't work, I've removed it/reloaded/restarted a million times. NO other app is like this on my Roku. What gives, @HBOMaxHelp? It's not the account, it works fine on my laptop.

I heard the YouTube TV app isn't working on Roku and people are freaking out as if YouTube TV almost costing as much as cable on any device isn't an issue. ...at least it's finally being disruptive? I'm just waiting for Sling and YT TV to merge so I can pay $100 for SlingTube.

@tbo41fan @TeamYouTube No. But my husband brought home a new tv with roku and that works atm. However I seem to be finding more issues with my stand alone roku. Probably will just trash it and get something new at this point since now it's affecting paid for subscriptions. Boo.

@hulu_support Hey @hulu_support I just called Hulu support with this issue and the service agent argued with me that you don’t represent Hulu and that they are NOT aware of any audio issue on Roku devices. Can you please clarify?

@jeroche @XfinitySupport I don’t think it’s XFinity. I’ve been trying to get into HBOMax for 3 days and am also an XFinity client. But I’ve been reading posts that it’s not working for AppleTV, Roku, or PS5 users either. HBO said they uploaded an update on June 5th and it hasn’t worked since!
