The new app on Roku has been live for about 24 hours so a chance for users to give some feedback, hints and tips or highlight things that aren't obvious.
Positives for me;
Navigating the app is much quicker and the remote seems more responsive.
The time bar/search is superior to previous efforts. Click right to skip 10 seconds or hold down to the right and the timer slides showing progress in minutes.
Subtitles on live TV including live sports broadcasts.
Subtitle text size can be changed in Roku system settings.
Auto play next episode now active although I'd like a way to switch it on or off.
Negatives
Some of the text is way too small.
Can't change live channels without exiting the current stream and returning to TV guide. A big no no from me!
TV guide on the top row of tabs should be next to Home making access quicker.
Still can't skip promos at the start of on demand content but for some strange reason there's the option to pause.
A question - on live sports broadcasts there is a greyed out "go live" icon. Does that mean we are going to get the option for in broadcast replays of key moments? Or is that purely for the pause live broadcast function? If it's the latter, it doesn't work. I tested by pausing for 2 minutes, pressed play and the "go live" is still greyed out.
