Headphone mode or private listening mode does not work. Sometimes it will work for 30 seconds then automatically turn off, sometimes it wont play audio through headphones at all, it never works as advertized. This is the only function I want from this app and one of the reasons we have a roku TV. I've tried a few different "fixes" I've found online, they don't fix the problem.

Hi there! Help is here. Ensure both your Roku and mobile devices are updated. Once complete, be sure to restart each device, then restart your router for a stable connection. You may also want to try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. We have additional troubleshooting details on our website: https://support.roku.com/article/217479488. Thanks!

this App is garbage and makes you reset all your passwords every time you login edit: everything on my phone and on the Roku tv is up to date. I already tried deleting and reinstalling the apps. Roku is set up to request a password reset upon opening a steaming app, and does not give you the option of entering a password. All of these apps (Disney plus most recently) work fine on other devices.

Hello! Have you encountered any error message when you try logging in on the app. For the best experience, ensure your Roku and mobile devices have the latest OS versions. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app may also help. If you can share more details through the app’s support options, we’d be happy to assist further. Thanks for your feedback!

It doesn't connect unless you uninstall reinstall the app every few days. Sometimes it starts the process of connecting but then says "the roku device isn't connected to your network". the TV is still playing the program, but I can't fix the connection. so yeah, 1 star, it's frustrating and quite frankly misses me off to the point that I want to smash my TV or phone.
