Can I get the 4x4 grid back?
Apparently I was part of the group that was tested with the 4x4 app grid and I like it a lot more than the 3x3. Is it possible to switch back to 4x4? Mine was changed back to the 3x3 this morning. ...

I had the 4x4 screen until this morning (4/4/24)
Both it and the option to change has disappeared.
Will it come back?
Same here. I updated today (4/4/23) and the option to choose small or large tiles went away and reset me to large tiles. No big deal; just my preference.
mine too reverted to the awful 3x screen. 4x is so much cleaner. What is going on Roku team???
I also preferred the 4x4 app grid size more so than the 3x3 app grid size however the option of the app grid size has simply disappeared over night. It has been my past and present experience that the functionality associated with any product (streaming services and/or streaming devices) is subjective and/or objective to change without the user and/or customer consent. The hard truth is the user and/or paying customer of the device and/or service have no real control with the functionality that is associated with the device and/or service. I make the choice to buy or not to buy, to use or not to use, to pay or not to pay for the streaming services and/or streaming devices. Even if I were to stop using the Roku device and/or cancel a paid subscription service executives know there will be more customers to replace me --- they will get their money either way. I have recently noticed that Roku has started to include more and more ads (ads that are not associated with movies and/or tv programs) on the Home page. It seems very obvious to me that changes can be made to the Roku OS system if and when they choose to do so.
Roku's real bread and butter comes from advertisements not from the devices themselves. it makes more sense for Roku to try to keep their users happy within reason. the 4x4 grid should be an easy fix that I'm hoping comes with the next RokuOS version. at least that is what I'm hoping. don't give up hope yet.
Yea but they alienate their users and there is always Apple TV steamer or fire tv…. I have always been (and still am) a proponent of Roku and its simplicity but there are breaking points of inconvenience that push users away.
in addition because they switched it back in some places icons are so big that they go off the screen. i mean it's like no one even bothered to look at how they would display after they screwed up another change.
