Continue Watching feature not working as promised
Updated to 11.5 but the "continue watching" feature only populates with Roku Channel content. Any idea on how to include the other streaming channels that were promised?
FYI.
They have added a CONTINUE WATCHING row in the WHAT TO WATCH menu item on the Roku Home Page that now includes content other than the Roku Channel. As promised in the OS 11.5 update they are now populating items from Roku Channel, Netflix, HBO Max, Paramount+ and Prime Video. (Noticed that content other than the Roku Channel began populating this past week.)
As you noted, this requires cooperation from the individual streaming services. Not all are participating (Disney+, Hulu, Peacock, Apple TV+) which makes it an incomplete offering. Paramount+ and Netflix seem to have the best integration of the new additions. Selecting an item takes you directly to the show detail page and episode in the proper PROFILE. Some of the others (HBO Max, Prime Video) take you to a PROFILE page and then you have to proceed. I am also finding that not all Prime Video content is being acknowledged and added. Netflix content in your queue can appear and then disappear at times. Not sure how often the queues of individual services are checked. It would be helpful if there were an option to REFRESH all queues from participating services. Helpful if you move and resume content from multiple Roku devices.
Hopefully this is a work-in-progress addition that will evolve, add more streaming services and become more accurate with content additions across multiple devices.
