Unable to add a channel as a "favorite"

I can't find where it tells you how to add a channel as a "favorite".  When I searched for this on Google. the instructions there do not work.  I can't find any instructions at Roku.com.  I need step by step  instructions.

Please help!

    It's great to have you here!

    We see you're unable to add a channel as a favorite, and we're here to clarify things so we can get this sorted out!

    Are you referring to the Live TV channels? If so, here's how to set a channel as a favorite.

    1. Open the Channel options menu
    2. Select Manage channels
    3. Select Favorite channels
    4. Press OK to check the box next to any channel you wish to favorite

    If you’re talking about the apps on your Home Screen, that option isn’t available yet. But you can totally set an app to the Top so it’s easier to find when you need it.

    Here's how:

    1. Press Home on your Roku Remote
    2. Highlight your desired app and press the Star * button
    3. Select "Move App to Top"
    4. The app will be added at the top of the Home screen

    Just let us know if that works for you or if you need anything else!
