I did the same. Entire situation is ridiculous
If I cannot watch on my TV through Roku, I am not paying the $50
I just emailed them. Here is the contact link for anyone who may also want it.
I can't even get it on my phone to cast to my TV. ....only Newsmax2. How did you get the app on your phone?
I mailed newsmax and also their major talent, who should be all over it!
There are no apps that I can find. The only way to watch is to go to Newsmax website and log in with your Newsmax+ credentials. Then you can watch on their website.
I totally agree Mindy. I just found out about it watching Newsmax last night. If you ask money for this service, it should be ready to go today. I just took the free trial. If I don't get an app or apps soon, I will cancel!
I am rather disappointed that Roku isn't carrying it!
I signed up as well and can’t find an app. I hope they add it, we just came back to streaming through Roku after 6 months of no tv other then an antenna because we wanted Newsmax.
No newsmax no news, will Roku carry new app? This is the only real news.
First, Roku doesn't create the channels that are available for 3rd parties. Those have to be created by the providers, so it's up to Newsmax to create a channel for Roku devices.
Second, others have reported that the existing Newsmax channel in the Roku channel store supports the new pay version. If you had the previous version of Newsmax on your Roku, you might need to remove it, reboot the Roku, then add the new version.
I don't use the channel, so I can't test that for accuracy. But it has been reported by several other users on a different thread.
