This reply misses the point of my question.
My question is, why does the Mobile App need to connect to a device at all in order to stream a show? It used to work on it's own as a streaming app. Now it doesn't. It's been changed. But they won't acknowledge it. Why?
Yes, my Roku won't play on my phone anymore, just in my kitchen! So these answers about being away from home- it happens at home too! Apparently there is no where that one can play content on phone, after a few weeks having roku. So disappointing. Idk why it suddenly happened after weeks of having a much better product, not it's not that useful!

Sane issue. I always was able to watch on my phone. There still is an drop down option, watch on mobile. But every time I click on it, it just brings me to the remote. I was literally just watching on my mobile last week! Now I can't. Pissed.
