Due to performance issues (loading screen constantly getting stuck in a loop) I removed and reinstalled YouTubeTV. After much struggle, I was able to get the app to work. However, I don’t have the option to add the app back to my channels on the Home Screen. I’ve tried system software update, network connect check, restart, and nothing seems to work. Can anyone help troubleshoot this?

If you log into your Roku account via that link and search for YouTube TV, will it install from there?
I tried that, and it doesn’t give me the option. I guess the Roku tv knows that I already have it installed, it just won’t let me add it to my Home Screen
I’m confused because it sounds like you already reinstalled the app and “was able to get the app to work”. But I don’t understand how you could do all that without having the app on your home screen.
Also, on the picture above, you show the browse page, but what happens when you click on details? It’s the next page (after clicking on Details) where the add channel button should be.
I've read through this post (link below); so frustrating software support is sometimes. This solution works for 1 Roku, but we have 3 and this doesn't fix it on the others. Only 1 Roku shows YouTube TV on the home screen. The others just have the option to open the app.
