Roku Ultra 4800R won't save channel login info

Recently replaced my Roku 3 (2013) with the Roku Ultra -- purchased thru Roku site at a discount. I reloaded all my paid channels and logged into each one at initial set up. A few hours later tried to watch HBOMax and had to reenter all my password info... tried ALL the channels and other than Netflix, I had to reenter the info again. Next day, same thing - I've now had to login to each channel multiple times to watch my shows.

What is the issue Roku?! I've tried adding channels from the website, and restarting it multiple times but it will not remember any of the login info. Next advice online is to reset my Roku password, unlink this new Roku device and start all over again -- seems like a lot of hoop jumping! Please Roku, don't make me pack this device up and ask for a refund -- I never had this issue with my trusty old Roku 3.

Re: Roku Ultra 4800R won't save channel login info

I had that happen once, but that was the first time I had updated and went through EVERY channel to check them. If I just stick with the few I normally use, it doesn't lose the login info.
