[Solved] Viki on Roku not working

When I click on a show to watch on Viki it just immediately goes back to the Roku home screen. Other apps I have watched on Roku are working. It just seems to be Viki that's not.

  • Usually I hear from Viki as soon as I post a problem but haven't heard from anyone yet. Must be really busy.

  • https://support.viki.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000164208-Roku-App-Status-for-2018. I found this when I did a Google search about this problem,. evidently they are building a new app.

  • Do you really think the new one will work better?  Or is it just the carrot before the horse tactics?  At this point after they have messed up their app three significant times in the last 8 months at least for their PAYING roku customers they have to do significant improvements i.e. not having their app crash every two to three months - to convince me that they have our best interests at heart.

  • Well it's working sort of halfway. I can watch some episodes but it doesn't recognize that I have an upgraded pass and my shows I'm following are gone. I did the system update. Hope it gets fixed soon.

  • Hey victoria63645_984,

    I've just emailed you regarding why you're not seeing your Viki Pass benefits and you're not seeing the shows you're following.

    Also, if you don't see Viki Pass benefits, it can be useful to refer to this FAQ:
    Purchased Viki Pass but can't see benefits

    Best,
    Kristie
