Thank you for the follow-up, @Dargis49.

We're happy to take a closer look at this concern.

No worries; we have collected the following details you have provided. However, our team will also need the "Tracker ID" to complete the investigation on your device. The app's version is also requested to better understand the factors affecting the problem. You can refer to the previous post above on how to gather this information on your device.

Your response with the complete details is highly appreciated. We're looking forward to it.

I have the same issue on my TCL Roku TV. I've tried all of the suggestions of removing the app, restart, reinstall... I've even unplugged my tv and waited for 30 seconds, plugging back in, and reinstalling.  Same thing. Very annoying.  I'm about to throw my tv into the trash! ROKU NEEDS TO FIX THIS!
