Channels & viewing

I can get YouTube on Roku. I can also get YouTube TV. But I can't find a way to get YouTube Music. Can anybody point me towards it please?

It looks like YouTube has not made a channel for the Roku. Not certain if it's on any other devices outside of phones/tablets that run some form of Android. Could even be restrictions imposed by the music companies.

There is a music category in the regular YouTube. Not certain if it offers more depending on if you have the YT Music subscription or not.

You can access YouTube Music from within the regular YouTube channel app on Roku.  Be sure you are logged into your YouTube account and go to the menu on the left side of the screen.  Select Music.

Thanks. That worked.

That does not help because I have saved audio books in my youtube music and I can't access those from the music icon on the left side and youtube's app on Roku

I'm not sure about saved audio books but I have several saved Playlists on YouTube music and I can access all of those through the regular YouTube channel using the music icon on the left. Took a minute to find them but I did find them. But my roku, while playing music from a Playlist, will play 4 or 5 songs then go to the Screensaver screen and I have to push a button to wake it up and play again.

After I made this post I discovered a couple things one you can turn your screen saver off on your Roku TV and it won't come up and also anything that's not actually in a playlist on YouTube music {like random audio books} you can actually cast to your TV from your phone and it'll run that way
