Can I temporarily disable my roku device or lock it so that no one can use it?

Jump to solution

I was thinking if I can temporarily disable or lock my divice because my kids have been having too much screen time. If there is a feature where I can lock it for a set amount of time, and then unlock it afterwards, that would be nice to know. 

Btw if it helps I am using a Roku Ultra (4800 series) . It would be really great of you guys can help me out!

Thanks for the inquiry.

The only functionality on Roku devices available are Parental Controls. For more more information about Parental Controls, visit our Support page here: How do I block content using parental controls?

Depending on the features of your router, you may have the ability to specify the hours of operation for any given IP connection to be activated.
