Channel Issues & Questions

[praneshn]

I recently relocated from United States to India. As recommended, I deactivated earlier account and opened a new one using wi fi from India. 

When I set it up and connected my device, I am not able to search for channels. Also, not able to add Amazon prime and Disney+hotstar from channel store as well.

Performed factory reset as well. Did not resolve the issue.

Kindly advise.

Thanks for the inquiry.

Please be aware that Roku Search is available in English in Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

This is the most stupid feature (or lack of!) with Roku.

I fully understand that some channels are restricted to specific regions. But frankly, not allowing people to simply SEARCH for channels (from within the list of those available in their region) and forcing us to scroll through thousands of channels when we know what we look for, proves a complete disrespect of users!! Seriously... which engineer at Roku dev team decided that search feature was optional?? Do they ever use any system at all?
