Channel Issues & Questions

Help & troubleshooting for channels on your Roku device, including adding/removing channels, logging in to, authenticating, or activating a channel, channel-specific playback issues, assistance contacting channel publishers to report issues, and adjusting channel-specific settings.

Whenever I launch YouTube, it instantly goes straight back to the homescreen. I have tried deleting and reinstalling, updating both the app and my TV, nothing. None of the other channels/apps do this. I’m at a loss for what to do.

Between removing and reinstalling a channel, be sure to restart your Roku to clear its memory.

Settings > System > System restart
