Apps on Roku going back to home screen

Very little help from roku. Half my apps PANDORA, discovery+ roku TV  when I click on them they simply go back to home screen? The phone number sucks even says you may not receive a call back. Just the worst ever! ROKU SUCKS

Re: Can I talk with someone on customer service

Hi, @Bcraft 

Welcome to the Roku Community.

We understand the issue you have encountered with your Roku device, where the apps go back to the home screen, and we're here to help.

To resolve the issue, we recommend performing a troubleshooting step that we'll provide. Follow the instructions below.

  1. Press Home on your Roku remote.
  2. Scroll and select Settings.
  3. Select System.
  4. Select Power. If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.
  5. Select System restart.

Once this has been performed, kindly access your apps to see any improvements.

We hope this works, and let us know what you find out.

Best wishes,
Kash

Re: Apps on Roku going back to home screen

As of a couple of days ago, when I'm watching CNN on MAX,it goes back to the home screen every time there is an ad.This never happened before and it doesn't happen when watching movies or shows. Only with live tv.

Roku assistance was useless. Rebooting and other actions did nothing!
