Will Roku carry Newsmax Plus?

Jump to solution

I signed up for Newsmax Plus on Newsmax.com.  Today I went to Roku’s Search to find Newsmax Plus.  It wasn’t there.  Will Roku carry Newsmax Plus?

We don't have any updated information to share and encourage you to please reach out to the channel partner. Per their public statement:

As of Nov. 1, the popular Newsmax channel will go behind a paywall due to cable agreements — and will no longer be streaming for free on services like Samsung, Roku, Vizio, LG — or on smartphones.

Please reach out to Newsmax with further questions. The Roku Channel offers free live news channels 24/7.

Is anyone else have trouble accessing NewMax+ after paying for it

Jump to solution

I paid for the new NewsMax+ yesterday but today I'm unable to access this new app on Ruku TV. It does not show up when using the Roku Search (only the free one). This appears to be a setup issue with Roku and Newmax+ not rolling this out to easily.

I signed up this morning too. It's not on Roku or youtube. I don't want to watch it on my phone or PC, where I have no problem viewing it. I want it on my smart TV's. If I don't get it on my TV's by the end of my free trial, I will not continue paying for it. Maybe it will take a few days to get it rolling on apps.

Newsmax should not have switched so suddenly to a pay wall without having the apps already in the stores and ready to go. I signed up too and no plus apps are anywhere to be found! It’s ridiculous! This is newsmax’s fault, not Roku’s. And Newsmax is silent on it, no communication whatsoever.
