Channels & viewing

[Kieran449]

The ROKU app (game) called "Solitaire Royal" doesn't load anymore, on any of my devices. I tried them all. Did all the resets, uninstalls, On/Off etc. Nothing works.

When a ROKU app is no longer available or discontinued, are you stuck not knowing forever? Does ROKU have an app or menu built-in to tell you what channels are working, being updated or scheduled to be updated or discontinued, or even what has been updated in the recent past? Is there no ROKU bulletin board in the main menu to keep the user updated on these things? They make sure you are updated with what's new and what you can buy or subscribe to every day. It shouldn't be that hard. 

One more question: Why does a ROKU app list how many ratings, but not how many are good or bad. For all I know an app can have 1,000 ratings... all bad ratings. Maybe all good ratings. Who knows?

Thanks for the post.

Can you please provide us the following information:
-Roku device model
-serial number
-device ID
-software OS/version
(these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
-what channel and what version/build is the channel (this can be found be selecting the channel on the Home screen and pressing the * button)

Once we have this information we will be able to pass it along to the appropriate team for further investigation.

Thanks,
Danny

I got the ROKU ULTRA new in the box last week. I might have to take it back to the store if the ROKU company doesn't crack down on the "Channel Providers" (APPS) and checking on them.

If this issue is not going to be fixed remove the game from the games category, why is it still showing as an available game?  This issue was brought up in 2020 and 2021.

Thanks for the post.

For more information about that channel's features and functionality, you'll want to contact the channel provider support directly to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves. 

Thanks,

I bought a new ROKU TV for the basement 2 days ago.

Out of curiosity I tried that SOLITAIRE ROYALE game. It does not work. 

Nothing complicated here. It just doesn't work. Try it yourself. Why is it still in the games list?

It works on none of my ROKU devices and I have a load of ROKU devices all over the house.

It should not be this complicated.

It used to work last year on my other ROKU devices.

It doesn't work on my new ROKU TV. I am wondering if the content provider is blocking me because I don't buy cheats for the free game. 

Do a search in the ROKU community. I am not the only one.

No. That does not work. Even if you are correct, the problem has ROKU all over it.

All it does is make ROKU look bad. Look into it and see if they meet ROKU standards. Unless ROKU has no standards. The last recent update on their software was years ago.

I already tried to contact the "channel provider". No replies.
