Hi,
The Viki app is available for various countries on Roku.
For some reason, for UK, we can't search and add it. Its on other platforms in the UK, like AppleTV,
Is there any work-around that I can do, so that I can use the App on my Roku ?
Thank you.

Roku is very careful to only make apps available to regions specifically authorized by the individual channel developers. Contact the folks at Viki and tell them you need to have them authorize the Roku version of their app being released in the UK.

Re: Please add Viki app for UK users also
I did speak to Viki. They say:
“To clear up any confusion, please be aware that the Viki channel may not be accessible in every region as we rely on Roku's billing system. Although we continuously strive to enhance the community's enjoyment of Viki, we lack influence over Roku's decisions regarding the expansion of its services and support for various regions.”
So it’s an issue with the Roku billing system in the U.K. ?
