Features, settings & updates

** No backdrop feature on Roku Ultra running 13.1.4 build 1512 **

I have followed the instructions from Roku. There is no backdrop feature. There is no backdrop app. I have checked settings under the Home menu, as well as elsewhere. Clicked every path I could think of. Nothing.

Does anyone have any advice?

This response is useless. Sorry.

I have read the standard instructions.

On my Roku Ultra, there is no Backdrop item under Settings Home menu.

There is no Backdrop app in the streaming store.

I need advice for when the standard advice *fails* to work..

@sfgower, it's all there in the response.  It's rolling out.  No Roku devices that aren't TVs have it yet.  You just have to be patient.  Roku doesn't do anything quickly.

Thanks. That is informative. I thought from the posts the feature was fully rolled our. Evidently not.
