Ever since the 12.5 update on the Roku, I can't find how or where to report the bug, if an app is having an issue. Ever since the 12.5 update, my Disney Plus app has a crashing issue, and I can't find how or where to report the bug. It used to be when you hit the asterisks button, and you go to rate the app, it would be under that. It's gone now. Any idea how to report bugs with channel apps now? Thanks for the help! ❤️

It happens with other channels too. I have the lifetime movie club app, and it freezes a lot and I have to close out and back in. I removed both channels, and readded them. They still do it. I'm wanting to know how do you report a bug in the app, that was my ORIGINAL question! It seems since the new 12.5 update, that that's disappeared.
