Re: Roku stuck on Home Screen
@Mjbeauc, it sounds like what you're referring to as the Home page is actually the startup animation. No amount of button pushing on the remote will get it to move past that; it does it on its own. Find the reset button on the stick somewhere and with the power connected press and hold the reset button for no less than 30 seconds. If you still can't get it to move past the startup animation to the "Let's get started" page then it's time to look into getting it replaced. Perhaps @RokuMary-F can help with that or you can start at:

If you purchased it locally it's probably easiest to just return it to where your got it.
To reset the stick:

If you appreciate my answer, maybe give me a Kudo.

Re: Roku stuck on Home Screen
Pls advise on return option - bought at Walmart - doubt they will honor a return since it’s beyond 30 days

Thanks for following up.
We also recommend removing and reinserting the batteries of the remote then removing the power cable from your Roku device, waiting 5 seconds, and then reconnecting the cable if this helps resolve or isolate the issue from the Roku device to the Roku remote?
Does this clear up the issue you are seeing?
Best regards,
Mary
Have performed all the suggestions - still stuck on the bouncing Roku page - is there a number I can call or do I need to replace with a fire stick

Re: Roku stuck on Home Screen
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.
Before forwarding your concern to our Support team, try unplugging your router first, then boot up your Roku device. Once it's up, replug your router. Make sure to troubleshoot in this order, and then let us know if there's any difference afterward.
We'll keep an eye out for your reply.
All the best,
