We’ve been having the same issue for our TCL Roku. It’s maddening. The Netflix app Does. Not. Work.
please fix it, Roku.
disney plus, Hulu, YouTube are all fine. It’s only Netflix, and only on our Roku tv. It streams fine on a laptop.

Dear Roku Mods -
We have ALL read ALL your steps to solve this issue. Its been going on for some people for days, some for weeks, and others for months.

Please stop reposting the same troubleshooting steps and FIX THIS F*CKING ISSUE!
I love ROKU, I have four steaming sticks and one ROKU TV and I feel like you guys should be reimbursing me for AT LEAST the last 30 days of Netflix subscription because I can only watch it ON MY PHONE. - Mstraci2 years agoNewbie
Been having the same issues as everyone else on my TCL Roku but only with Netflix app. This has been going on for a few months! What's the deal?

It doesn’t work. I’ve deleted the app, reinstalled the app, updated the app. Factory reset the whole tv. Everything I could think of from my end. It’s ROKUs problem.

Why has this not been fixed. So many people with the same issue and just the same troubleshooting tips over and over until they get the issue ID or whatever, then no response from Roku. I was told my device too old so I bought a new one (even tho a second device, same age and model, works fine) and still have the same issue.
