I know it’s wicked annoying

I just noticed the rearranging of apps a few days ago. It has happened on more than one Roku device. Very frustrating! Apps I nearly never use are showing up at the top. One thing I really liked about Roku id that I could arrange the APS so the ones I use frequently appear at the top. Now it is a total pain!

The question goes beyond how to find HOW TO CHANGE THIS, a solution is needed how to KEEP it from doing it again. At least yours was nice enough to ask you, mine just scrambled them without asking.

I found how to turn it off, by changing them to MANUAL, but now how to LOCK that on MANUAL.

After I change it to MANUAL, I scroll left to exit that option, but as Im scrolling back, I see it switch it back to AUTOMATICALLY, like Im not watching it do that behind my back. So I go back and select MANUAL, the check mark is there, I move the cursor left, and it jumps right back to automatically!!!

How do you keep it on MANUAL, is there a SAVE button, how do I save it on MANUAL before it switches on its own back to AUTOMATICALLY????

Wheres the Remove Gremlin button inside my remote?

And why does ROKU think we're wanting to play Russian roulette with my apps, I have better things to do than play Where's Waldo with my apps? Why Roku Why?????

You shouldn't have to, but try pressing the OK button after marking the manual box instead of the left arrow.

Then press the Home button to go directly back to the Home Screen.

Some users have reported that the Manual setting is not "sticking" on their devices. (usually remains until the next time they use the device).

Looks like there may just be a bug in this test feature.

Count me in when the suit is filed!

It started for me last night (Saturday, August 10, 2024). It was fine Friday, then twice in about 20 minutes it did it last night AFTER I changed the setting to manual.

Since I only ever actually use about six of the apps, and generally only use two or three (I don't watch much TV) - I am going to remove all apps except the few that I regularly use.

The rest - and Roku - can eff off.

My living room TV doesn't do this at all (knock on wood), but my bedroom TV does it nightly!!! It's driving me absolutely insane!!!! Fix it Roku, fix it FAST!

This is EXTREMELY irritating. Changing to manual does not work!! AND it did not change it back to my way! Why mess with what is not broke? Do you just want us to do it your way and not our own?
