I just got a roku streaming stick 4k. Is there any way to disable the theater release ad on the right side. I am able to clear everything else, but I can't find any setting to disable it.

I was planning to use this for my kids and would rather not have random movies advertised on the home screen.

You can't get rid of that big ad space.  You can hide individual ads by highlighting it and pressing * on your remote, but another ad will replace the one you hide.

Thanks for reaching out about managing your ad preference. We'd like to provide further information about this.

In addition to what our Communi Expert provided above about hiding certain ads, you may also control the types of ads shown on the Home screen and screensaver of your Roku Streaming Stick 4K. Follow the steps provided to help you manage it:

• Settings > Privacy > Advertising > Sensitive ad content > Select one or more sensitive ad categories > OK.

Note: Ad preferences can only be used if Personalized Ads are enabled.
