Re: App wont update And no option to update in the App Store it just says open I’m stuck in a loop

Jump to solution

We’re approaching 4 days with this issue. I still can’t get in to the app which renders EVERYTHING useless. How incompetent is the engineering team that they can’t issue a hot fix to the App Store and force an update?  I’m about to smash everything Roku that I have with a hammer, mail the pieces to the support team, and go to a competitor. I’m done.

@Jowen82,

Thanks for the update,

Let’s try deleting the whole app, power cycling the phone, downloading the app, power cycling the phone, and starting it again. Let’s see if that helps.

Thanks,
Arjiemar
