Re: NEWSMAX PLUS IS A GO, they heard our complaints and fixed things

SlingTv is unobtainium now as well. Tried Newsmax at 7:00 by highlighting newsmax on Roku's home screen, then the asterisk, then update, then click on Newsmax. Get the blue screen which eventually fades to gray. Now nothing works on Roku - no Sling, no Newsmax, nothing.

However I can watch Prime and Netflix on Roku without an issue.

Well, maybe today is going to be better after all... Roku just awarded me with a badge.

Re: NEWSMAX PLUS ROKU Password Error

I keep getting an error that I have been signed out. If I hit learn more which is the only option, then it takes me to a purchase a yearly subscription after I already did the month to month. I don't know what to do.

I'm guessing that Newsmax could handle very light viewership Sunday evening but when Monday morning arrived the increased load was responsible. Losing Sling simultaneously was too much - although now it appears that Sling has some widespread issues looking at reports online.

This just goes to show how fragile our link with the outside world can be. Having everything (phone, TV) dependent upon fiber optics or dsl has its limitations and risks.

same issue with my Roku.  temporarily logged into the Newsmax app on my phone and then use screen mirroring to watch.  Only a temporary fix, but shows the Newsmax mobile app is up, running, and recognizes my subscription.  So, this is definitely a Roku issue.

Paid account and nothing works.  This is getting very aggravating.  Time to cancel and move to One America News Network.
