Some genius at Roku thought this would be a "great idea", but it isn't. Please either put the three tile interface back or add a config option to allow the three tile interface. Otherwise, as a visually impaired individual I will have to find a different streaming device because the smaller tiles are unusable.
Agreeing and echoing what everybody else you’re saying. I hate the four tile layout. I have quite a large size Roku TV, and the tiles are still too small on this. This is frustrating and annoying. Please take us back to the three tiles or give us an option.
They claim the change is coming in the "next update". That sounded good until I realized.... the last official update was in MAY! God knows how long this will take!
Again, the "middle of the night" sneaky change that took it to this terrible layout apparently was NOT an update! So why do we have to wait for an update to change it back?
This layout = Terrible!
I don't believe for a moment Roku is going to switch back to three tiles or give people the option. They were able to push the four tiles out and they were whim, There's no reason they should have to wait for an update to the OS In order to put it back to three tiles. Roku is simply playing those who have purchased their product. With all the cumbersome and annoying changes they have added none of them have been for the betterment or convenience of the user it's all been to collect info or steer people to something they are getting paid additionally for.
Wait and see at some point there's going to be apps that are pushed to users home screen or certain apps that will only be allowed to be in the first or second role as a premium spot.

What possible benefit would Roku gain by doing so? How would that provide any value to the company? You really think they're going to do something that makes some users unhappy, simply because they can? That makes no sense.
And they have already rolled the 4x4 back on many users devices. That's been verified here by many users. Why they haven't done it for everyone, we don't know. Perhaps a glitch in the software, perhaps something else. But Roku has confirmed numerous times that there will be a user setting for the display grid.
