You would need to ask Disney about that. They provide the channel/app for the various devices. It's possible it's a memory size limitation of your Roku, especially since you have such an old player. The newest Roku 3 is now 9 years old and only has 512MB of operating memory. The latest players have 1-2GB of memory.

Good point. The Roku 3 is still a great unit but maybe time to upgrade. If I run into the same issue, I'll contact Disney. There have been minor issues with a few other apps so maybe an upgrade will help. Thanks for your response. I'll follow up once new device is hooked up and running.- atc98092Community Streaming Expert
I looked at Disney+ on my Ultra, but of course none of the profiles we have contain more than a few entries in the watchlist. Also, my daughter's package isn't the version with ads, so that might alter what is available as well.
I did find a three year old thread on Reddit that mentions a 30 item limit even then. The Disney+ help page for watchlists does not mention any limit, which doesn't surprise me. One thing the Reddit thread mentioned was building separate profiles and storing other watchlist items in those profiles. For example, they made a Movies profiles and a TV Show profile, so they could have 60 watchlist items accessible.
The Roku 3 was a fantastic player in its day. But it is drastically outgunned by the modern players.

Update with Disney +. I installed the 4K streaming stick. No issues on the installation. I now can add more than 30 shows on a profile. It is also quicker going from 64 mbps on the Roku3 to 249 mbps on the stick. There is a different picture quality so I'll have to play with it for awhile to see some settings adjustments.
