Replacing an older Roku Ultra with new one

I just got a new Roku Ultra to replace my much older Ultra. I cannot find any info if my subscriptions will automatically carry over from the old unit to the new one. Will everything (Home Screen, screen savers, subscriptions) transfer over to my new Ultra when I log in? Thanks.

    That's a great question—and we're glad to hear you've got a new Roku device. When you use your existing Roku account, your apps are automatically installed on the new device, and Automatic Account Link signs you into supported apps you've used before.

    If an app doesn’t support auto sign-in, you’ll need to log in manually. Your home screen, screensaver, and themes will sync to the new Roku device as well.

  • If you add the new Roku to the same Roku account, your apps should work the same....not sure about the screen savers... the home screen will most likely need to be arranged like you want.
