Hi @No_Name_Here,

From the Roku Community, welcome. Thanks for the inquiry!

We're pleased to assist you further with this inquiry about getting your Roku Camera to show up on your Roku devices. 

The Roku Cameras channel lets you view a live stream on your TV from all your Roku Smart Home cameras and your video doorbell. A Roku streaming player or Roku TV running Roku OS 11.0 will add the channel automatically after you install your first camera or doorbell, but for the optimal experience, Roku OS 11.5 or higher is recommended. Your streaming devices check for a software update every 24 to 36 hours or you can manually check for an update if necessary.

To view a live stream on any of the Roku streaming devices linked to your Roku account, your camera or doorbell must be powered on and connected to the internet.

  1. Switch the input on your TV to your Roku streaming device
  2. Press Home  on your Roku remote
  3. Press OK  or move to the right to access your channel list
  4. Highlight the Roku Cameras channel and press OK 
  5. Select a camera or doorbell to view the live stream

When you are in the channel, you can switch between live streams by pressing up or down on your remote. To speak to visitors or access most settings, you need to use the Roku Smart Home mobile app.

Hope you'll find this info useful. Let us know if you still have any questions.

All the best,
John
