Thank you! It appears I will have to switch back to Xfinity in order to use my multiple Roku devices. 
I appreciate your feedback!

Just, use the direct TV stream app for roku devices if you want to watch TV. Never go back to xfinity.

LoL, i am reassessing my options now and eliminating the channel lineup with my current provider.  I still need the high speed internet however, i think i will change my current Hulu plan to include live board casting.  

Thanks for your honesty!

What is it exactly you want to do with this app? The only app I'm aware of for Roku devices is either a control app (which is available for iOS and Android devices, but not for players or TVs) or a dedicated "The Roku Channel" app which only provides access to the content available via The Roku Channel. This one does not have anything to do with any devices you own. 

Or are you referring to an app for Roku devices that allows you to stream video content available from your provider (Verizon)? If that's the case, then unfortunately there is no such app and you would need to ask Verizon to provide on.

Yes , you are correct. My final solution: I upgraded my Hulu subscription to include live programming. Which I can stream using my Roku devices.
