Will Roku carry Newsmax Plus?

I signed up for Newsmax Plus on Newsmax.com.  Today I went to Roku’s Search to find Newsmax Plus.  It wasn’t there.  Will Roku carry Newsmax Plus?
app availability

    Hey everyone,

    Good news! You can now access Newsmax+, the premium subscription service, right inside the Newsmax app on Roku.

    Haven’t added the Newsmax app yet? No problem — you can do it directly from your Roku device or through the Streaming Channel Store.

    Need a little help? Check out this guide:

    Happy Streaming! 💜

I signed up this morning too. It's not on Roku or youtube. I don't want to watch it on my phone or PC, where I have no problem viewing it. I want it on my smart TV's. If I don't get it on my TV's by the end of my free trial, I will not continue paying for it. Maybe it will take a few days to get it rolling on apps.

    There are no apps that I can find. The only way to watch is to go to Newsmax website and log in with your Newsmax+ credentials. Then you can watch on their website.

      I called the main office at Newsmax. “They’re working on it”. They’re saying it will definitely be available

    I signed up for Newsmax Plus last night believing that at 12:01 am the app would be on Roku and in the Apple App Store.  Nothing.  All I can get is Newsmax 2.  I have a call in to Newsmax to see what’s going on. I paid the subscription fee and don’t want to be out of the free 15 day streaming.  I don’t think Newsmax has their act together.

        I got an e-mail back from Newsmax that they are having a temporary problem with Roku and it should be fixed by tomorrow.

    I was able to sign in on my phone at newsmaxtv.com and then AirPlay it to my TV, but won’t continue the subscription after the 15 day freebie if they don’t offer a Roku app. C’mon Newsmax!

      My mom is very upset she can’t watch and paid for it. I’m at her house right now mirroring Newsmax plus through her iPad using web page. Go to Newsmax plus.com and sign in. Scroll down to where it says how to watch and click on Newsmax plus.com NOT Roku or App Store. Watch live and mirror through Roku to watch on tv. Eventually they will have app for Roku. 
      If my mom asks me one more time when the app will come out I’m going to scream 😂

        I AM 80 YEARS OLD!  I DO NOT HAVE THESE DEVICES, ONLY A ROKU TV.   THERE NEEDS TO BE AN IMMEDIATE RESPONSE FROM NEWSMAX FOR THIS INCONVENIENCE.   I WILL CANCEL BEFORE TRIAL ENDS IF NOT RESOLVED!!

    Delete your newsmax phone app.

    Load new newsmax tv app.

    There are 2 feeds to choose from.

    One is newsmax+.

    We are experiencing the same problem, trying to find the new app.  The only way we are able to watch it, is by going to newsmaxtv.com, sign in and cast it to a TV. Hopefully they will get the new app up soon, across the multiple platforms.

      I have no trouble finding Newsmax plus on the internet. Roku is completely different. As always I can go to the internet when Roku fails me, which happens alot with Newsmax. I suspect that Roku is not providing us with service when it comes to Newsmax . Are they a woke company?

    you have to go to Newsmaxtv.com and sign up for newsmax plus - then it should allow you to download the app on your phone.
