Why is the search function not available in France?

But why on earth is this simple function territory dependent?

Re: Why is the search function not available in France?

Hi @Nikkkko,

Warm greetings from the Roku Community!

Currently, Roku Search is available in English in Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. As well as in Spanish in Mexico and the United States.

We would recommend taking a look at our Support page for more information regarding How to find movies and TV shows using Roku® Search | Official Roku Support 

Please keep us posted if you need further assistance or clarification.

Kind regards,

John

@RokuJohnB-

The question is Why is the search function not available in France?

So tell me: how does one take a picture of a feature that's not there?

@Nikkkko-

From https://support.roku.com/article/208756398, 21 Sep 2023:

  • Roku Search is available in English in Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
  • Roku Search is available in Spanish in Mexico and the United States.

The above useful information has been removed from the source article since then.

That doesn't tell you WHY there is no search function in France, but it at least confirms you aren't missing an available feature.

Indeed. The question is, Why?

The search function seems such a basic feature, so why should it be territory dependent? Nuts.
