Sling app not showing after installed

My Sling app is not showing on my menu. In none of my Roku devices. We have tried everything and it shows as downloaded but not showing in the home.

  • Sorry, I hadn't elaborated on that. Chenchy​ 

    Here's how you will quickly remove an app through the Roku Mobile App. 

    1. Open the Roku Mobile App. Make sure your phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Roku device.
    2. Connect to Your Roku Device. Tap on Devices at the bottom and select your Roku device once it appears.
    3. Access Installed Channels. Tap the Channels tab to view all apps installed on your Roku.
    4. Remove the App Tap and hold the app you want to remove (a quick tap opens the remote). Then select Remove and confirm your choice.


    Let me know if you need more info!

    Welcome, Chenchy 

    It seems that the Sling app doesn't appear on your Roku devices after installation. If the app doesn't show up on your Roku device's home screen, go to your Roku device and select Settings > System > System update > Check now.

    Let us know how it goes!

      Thanks. It worked on 1 Roku… but the other one I have in my room even doing the software updates still can’t see the Sling app in the home. Is downloaded but not showing.

        Thanks for the update! Chenchy​ 

        Have you tried removing the Sling app using the Roku Mobile App and then adding it back from there to see if it appears on the Roku Home screen?
