Re: Add direct stream app to my LG tv with a Roku app

The Roku app isn't a substitute for a Roku device.  It is what it is - you can't add anything to it.  You can always connect a Roku device to your LG "smart" TV.

I have a Roku stick. The direct stream app was there and has disappeared. I just need to add the app to the lineup. It’s on my living room tv

Re: Add direct stream app to my LG tv with a Roku app

@Ledo52 Is your living room TV a Roku TV or connected to a Roku device.  If the living room TV is showing the directTV Stream app on a Roku device try restarting the Roku in the bedroom.  If the living room TV has the directtv Stream app on a Roku device and the bedroom TV does not after restarting go into setti;ngs, system, about on both the living room and bedroom and make sure they have the same email address.

Welcome to the Roku Community, @Ledo52!

We're grateful you've reached out, and we'd be happy to help you stream this on your Roku streaming stick. 

In addition to what our Community Expert and Guru provided above, kindly check if you've linked the same Roku account on both your Roku devices under Settings > System > About

If so, the apps you install on one of your Roku devices will mirror them on your other Roku devices. However, if they have different Roku accounts, you may install them via the Streaming Store under the Settings menu. 

You may also check this support article to help you: How to add apps to your Roku streaming device

We hope you find this information helpful.

Warm regards,
Carly
