Replacement device and “re” logging into channles

Do I need to load and log into each channel again if I replace my Roku device?

Or is there some sort of transfer of channels from the old to new device?

Re: Replacement device and “re” logging into channles

Your channel selections are attached to your Roku account.   Any additional or replacement Roku linked to that same Roku account will get all those same channels downloaded to it.

Some of those channels may use Roku's "One Login" (I think that's its name) capability to log you into new copies of the channel, but many do not, requiring you to log into the new installations manually at first.
