Getting kicked out of apps

While watching Disney +, ESPN+, etc. I am getting kicked out to the Home Screen every 3 minutes or so. I have tried a factory restart, delete app, reboot device, add app and issue persists. Please help. I have 2 express devices and it is happening on both.

Re: Getting kicked out of apps

I have been getting kicked off Disney+ for the past 5 minutes. I’ve had this issue before but I could usually resume watching my movie after the first time. Now I’m trying to watch The Santa Clause 2 and it’s kicked me off 5 times! Cant even make it past the 1-minute mark. Idk what else to do. I just got this tv for Christmas!

We have the Roku express+ and for the last 4 days, it kicks us off Hulu,Frndly,prime every 3 minutes. Wish they would provide an answer.  It didn’t kick us off Pandora though. 

We are trying a factory reset to see if that works. We have done system updates, unplugging to reset, and resetting internet.   Nope that didn’t work either.

I changed which hdmi input on the tv I was using and this solved my issue.

This happens on my 2020 Ultra(s) with literally all my apps at least once a day if not more.

Disney+

HBOmax

Boomerang

SyFy

... and so many more. Nothing fixes it.

Roku TV keeps disconnecting from WIFI
I am having the same exact issues. I have the Roku ultra and it has been running perfectly for the last two weeks or more. All of a sudden today 1-14-21 all streaming channels regardless of what show im watching just stop. Pause.Shut off. Go white snowy screen. Sometimes no audio, sometimes nothing. My internet is at 112 mbps and ALL my other devices are working great, its a ROKU thing. And I have troubleshooted for 2 hours. Rebooted routers, modems,Roku,the nintendo switch,the hair dryer.....NOTHING WORKS.

I am very frustrtated because I just discontinued Direct TV  and put all my faith in ROKU......BAD MISTAKE IM AFARID.

Somebody please tell me it is just a bad update or something
