Can't view Roku Camera on TV Camera app

Jump to solution

I can access all 3 cameras and an outlet via the roku app on my phone. Implies good connectivity via internet and everything works. BUT... when I go to view cameras via the Roku Camera app on a Roku TV, only one camera is viewable. Other cams don't connect. It was all working for a few weeks. Now I'm a thousand miles away and I can't monitor my cameras via a roku enabled TV. I'm paying for this subscription to enable this, but I can't get any help from anyone from Roku. Seems I should cancel subscription and stop telling everyone how great Roku is?

I think that many of the issues folks were having with their cameras and the mobile app may have been solved with today's app update (4/4/25). I was having different problems with my indoor cameras and they now function perfectly.

This is my same issue. I followed these steps to try to fix it and it did not fix my issue.

Many of us have had a variety of issues since, perhaps, late February; judging from all the comments, including mine, on the app page at Google Play.

Some of us had an issue where it would take the app half a minute to open the settings when in live view, Also, the smart detection events setting area was always blank.  The siren function did not work, as well.

These were my issues that were fixed this morning with the update to ver, 3.2.4.455.

Have you verified that you have this new version?

We look forward to your response.
