Re: How to get adult things on roku

You really can't anymore because Roku banned all private channels back in early 2022. There used to be a pornhub app and some others but now they are gone.

What you need to do is get a Fire TV Stick because there are many adult apps you can sideload, some free and others you can subscribe to like Adult Time for example, which has a very good library selection of adult videos. The Fire TV devices also have web browsers you can add, so you can go to adult websites as well.

The only way you can view anything adult on Roku presently would be if you stream your own media files from you computer over the Plex or Empty apps. Or put files onto a USB stick and plug it into your Roku if your Roku player has a USB port. Roku is very limited and you can only use the official apps in the store.

On what channel? It's already been said that no adult content is available on Roku devices. You could screen mirror a computer to the Roku, that's the only way to get such content.

This is absolutely false.  Roku hosts Many commercial channels that are slap full of soft core porn grade movies.  Some of the movies being broadcast today thru streaming channels would be consider rated X 20 years ago.  Occasionally I accidentally find French adult-themed movies that contain actual graphic porn shots.  One only has to name 1 out of 200 random taboo-themed movies to prove that Roku doesn't block rated X grade movies...  I can name at least 20 movies off the top of my head out of a much longer list of unacceptable movies that are scattered throughout all of the streaming channels.  Roku (the channel) may or may not host these movies but Roku (the platform) does.  I can go even further by saying that the streaming world is moving more towards normalizing porn into mainstream movies.  So don't try to make it sound like Roku doesn't allow adult material when it's literally everywhere.

@cocotower Sorry, I don't agree that one can find the sort of content that is considered "adult" today on any available Roku channel. Yes, community standards have changed over the years, but you'll still not find anything that received an "X" rating from the MPAA from any decade on a Roku channel. There certainly are some channels that get close, such as Midnight Pulp or Mutant Sorority Pictures. But what they show still wouldn't have been rated X at the time.

The ratings system has been trash for decades.  Surely you're not quoting me the MPAA as a factoid against my argument that adult movies are littering all of the streaming channels.  Some of the stuff is just down right sickening and goes far beyond what the R standard has historically allowed.  I stand by my statement that Roku hosts channels that feature hundreds and hundreds of movies that contain graphic scenes that are borderline pornography.  In fact, some of the Mature Audience movies I've seen on Fire TV had actual porn scenes, so don't get me started on who the real culprits are.  If your focus is on a few non-commercial, perhaps LLC channels on Roku that might feature a bunch of old vintage T&A movies, you're kidding yourself.
