Can I add apps using "Search by Channel" function in Roku?

Am looking to add channels by searching for them.

For example, I wanted to add H&I, and am not sure it's available (2022).

Does Roku have a "Search by Channel" function which displays all apps which have that channel? I'd love that functionality if it doesn't exist. If it does, would someone post a link? 

New to Roku. Cutting cable shortly. LOVING THIS!

Re: Can I add apps using "Search by Channel" function in Roku?

There is a search streaming channels right on your Home Screen Hero’s and Icons is a network not a channel. A Roku calls apps channels. Meaning Netflix, Hulu and Disney+ are channels. If your looking for a certain network you need to find what streaming service is offering that network. I cut the cord 10 years ago. I use YouTube TV for my live tv needs. Your best place to actually find things out is Google 

Frndly and Sling offer the Hero’s and Icons network

Log into Roku account online, then navigate to Roku channel store.  Search there.

Or use website like rokuguide after logging into Roku account, click the link for selected channel on rokuguide.
