To expand on the reply from @RokuEmmanuel-D a bit ...

Those inadequate memory warnings are often a symptom of the Roku memory cache getting corrupted.  Deleting channel app after channel app does not make the warnings go away.  Clearing the memory cache should cure the problem.   

The easiest way to do this is to RESTART your Roku.  (For Roku TV users reading this: if you have "Fast TV start" enabled, turning the TV off and back on just puts it into and out of a standby state and does NOT give you a complete restart, so use the methods below.)   

Depending on your Roku model you'll find the "System restart" option under "Settings > System > Power", or on models without a Power option, under "Settings > System".  

If a restart doesn't do it, or if you don't have sufficient control with the remote to navigate the Roku menus, you can also restart by pulling the power plug to the Roku for a few seconds then plugging it back in and waiting for it to restart.

April 2025 and I got the "not enough room delete some apps" message.  After deleting unused channels, no improvement.  Then I followed most of the steps in the helpful guide.  But before following exactly, I tried it WITHOUT deleting Amazon Prime before the restart.  Figured if it worked I could dodge the hassle and possible issues of removing then reinstalling it.  And?

It worked just fine for me skipping the delete/add prime step and only took a few minutes.  Thanks very much for helpful post

Thanks for reaching out about the issue with your Roku TV! We’re here to help.

Have you tried restarting the device? If not, go to Settings > System > Power > System Restart. This should help resolve the issue.

Keep us posted.

I want to know the same, yesterday was able to go onto You Tube TV and not today - it says that there is not enough memory, but nothing has changed so I don't understand. My other half watches this the most so not happy because he watches more than me.

Not sure if the culprit to your current issue, but there was another thread with similar YoutubeTV issues/problems at https://community.roku.com/t5/Solving-playback-issues/YoutubeTV-disappeared-now-can-t-download/td-p/....

Supposedly resolved and recommended to perform a manual Software Update on the Roku device.

Settings/System/Software Update.

I normally reboot/restart my Roku device after performing a manual update. (Settings/System/System Restart or Settings/System/Power/System Restart).

I cannot open my You Tube TV app, it says not enough memory. I deleted the app & other apps, did the system update & it still won’t open

[renojim]

@Cecewats, did you perform a System restart found under Settings->System or Settings->System->Power?

When I try to open a channel to watch it says I do not have enough storage. However, I’ve been using this Roku for years. I did delete most apps and still it says I don’t have enough.

I have not changed anything and all of a sudden it says I don't have enough storage space.  So I deleted quite a few apps to be safe. Still nothing (I am trying to open Hulu)
