Using a PC to view my Roku Cameras

This is just ridiculous! We really need a way to view our cameras from our computers.
Now I am regretting buying all these cameras and doorbell and everything else.
I just assumed that a company like Roku would surely have some way (even if through a subscription) to monitor my home via my computer.
Next time I will be sure to check and make sure the manufacturer is consumer friendly

I wouldn't be surprised if Roku eventually incorporates something similar to the WebView subscription offered by Wyze.  You can likely bet it will require a subscription.

If the SmartHome app actually performed like it should, alternative methods of viewing really would be nice, but not really needed.  As is, the mobile app and its reliability/performance is still a weak link with Roku Smart Home products.
