    We understand that you're unable to connect to the CNN app on Roku, and we'd be glad to assist. Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can perform to resolve the issue at hand. Kindly do them in-order to accurately get the best results.

    1. Navigate to the channel tile on the Roku home screen, press the star (*) key on your remote, and choose "Remove channel".
    2. Next, restart your device from Settings > System > Power > System Restart (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step).
    3. Once your player/TV starts up again, go to "Streaming Store" on the Home screen, and add the channel back once more.
