Where have all my screensavers gone?

Jump to solution

I used to have hundreds of screensavers to choose from. Some free some paid. Now I only have a few. What happened to all of them? The ones I can choose from are all free and very limited. I think there maybe about 30. I’m so confused. I don’t have a “themes” in my settings. Just “ wallpapers and screensavers”. That’s where I’ve always gone to get them. They’ve always been listed Vertically now there’s just a few and they’re listed horizontally. I don’t understand when all this changed or why, and how I go back to what I used to have. Not do I know how to get back the hundreds of screensavers I used to be able to choose from for that matter.

Welcome, @Heddacosmo.

Thanks for your first post here in the Roku Community!

We understand that all your screensavers were gone and that changes have been made to your screensaver settings. Just a heads-up: it's important to remember that screensavers on Roku have a set expiration period. This means that screensavers may be replaced by new updates from Roku. When your Roku TV system is connected to the internet, it will automatically check for software updates approximately every 24 to 36 hours. This ensures your devices have the most up-to-date features and improvements, providing the best viewing experience. Feel free to continue enjoying Roku's latest selection of wallpapers and screensavers at this time.

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any additional inquiries.

I have the same exact problem, and my roku is successfully connected to the internet. So, where are all the Screensaver apps I used to be able to choose from?  I only have 14 available.

I’m having the same problem, also. Everything is gone. I wanted to change everything to Halloween. They were there a couple of weeks ago. My grandson is going to be disappointed.
