Features, settings & updates

Why does Netflix work so terribly on Roku? Not only can I not add any Netflix exclusive content to my Roku Save List, but the Netflix app crashes constantly. This is a widespread issue and needs attention immediately. Does Netflix have anything to do with this issue at all? Does Roku not realize how popular Netflix is as a streaming service? GET IT TOGETHER.

And yes, I've removed the app and restarted my tv as per Roku suggestion. It only helps for the next use though. Once some time goes by, Netflix will inevitably crash again.

Hello @CoreyGruber

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community!

Did you restart your Roku device before re-installing the channel? That step is crucial when performing troubleshooting. If you haven't tried the suggested order (remove > restart > re-install), we would recommend giving it a shot once again. We also suggest doing the restart from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > Power (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.) > System restart.

Hope you'll find this info useful. Let us know in case you've still got any questions

Regards,

Yes. As stated in my original message, I followed all of the steps that roku suggests. I included that in my message because I knew that's how you'd respond. I also stated that it works once and then fails again after some time has passed. Did you read my message, Or just identify the surface of the issue and paste the cookie-cutter response?

The link you provided offers no actual help. Stop deflecting and recognize the fact that Roku has an internal issue with the Netflix app. This is a widespread problem that will need to be fixed on your end. Please advise on Roku's course of action for this issue.
