Streaming Newsmax Channel on Roku

The same we cannot watch Newmax through Roku TV live tv channel. We get in and a few minutes we get kicked out. It is aggravating. The only way I can watch Newsmax live is through Pluto live tv or Youtube live Newmax channel. I have had not had any complaints with Roku TV until this. Roku TV please fix this problem on your Roku TV live tv channel for Newsmax news. I want to watch it through Roku TV live channel and why is everyone having problems now that want to stream this new channel? Roku used to be reliable, stable streaming without interruptions or connecting issues to your favorite streaming channels and programs you want to watch. Roku please get this problem fixed please!

      Newsmax has launched Newsmax+ starting 11/1/23. This is a paid service which supersedes the previous app for live show content. A log in and passcode is required. Roku needs to make this app available in its store so that those of us who subscribed can watch. Thank you!

        newsmax needs to supply the app. I'd suggest contacting them.

      Go to your Newsmax block (Dont click to open) and press the star button . scroll down to update.  This will update your old Newsmax to the Newsmax plus.

      The only problem I'm having now is that I have to log in often.

      Newsmax has updated their app/channel, and it now works for Newsmax+. Do a manual update check to make sure you have the latest version of the channel.

        You have to go to the Newsmax box on Roku tv and hit the star button, then go down to update the app. then you can log in with your info to Newmax plus.

        Yet, still, I have to login EVERYTIME I want to watch newsmax plus.  I need to know the answer to that problem
