How to view my acorn sub thru Roku on any other streaming app? I subscribe to acorn through Roku no

I subscribed to Acorn through Roku. I have another TV that has YouTube TV on it.  I wanted to watch a program on my YouTube TV and it says I have to pay for it or join Acorn. But I already joined Acorn through Roku... why can't I access my subscription so I can watch it on other platforms? Can someone tell me how to do this please?

Re: How to view my acorn sub thru Roku on any other streaming app? I subscribe to acorn through Rok

Normally, if you subscribe to a channel through a particular platform, you are restricted to watch through that platform.  Typically, if you subscribe directly through the channel/provider, then you can use their app anywhere.  I would suggest cancelling your subscription and subscribing directly through Acorn, then you would be able to view on Roku or any other device.  

You can try using your acorn login (email/password) that you use on Roku and try logging into the app on your other TV and see if that works.
