Dear Roku Team,
I am writing to request a significant feature that I believe could greatly enhance the user experience of your product, especially for elder demographics.
My 84-year-old grandmother, like many others in her age group, finds solace and entertainment in watching television, particularly channels from her home country. As with many elderly individuals, she struggles with grasping the ins and outs of new technology. Her memory has also started to falter, adding another layer of difficulty to the learning process. As a result, she finds it extremely challenging to navigate the Roku interface and initiate the application she needs to watch her favorite programs.
For these reasons, I kindly request your team to consider introducing an 'Autostart' feature. With this function, users could set a preferred application to start automatically when the Roku device is powered on. This would significantly simplify the user experience, especially for older users who may not be as technologically adept.
I understand that adding new features requires time and resources. However, I believe that implementing an autostart function could not only improve the accessibility of Roku for older users like my grandmother but also offer a competitive edge in the marketplace. It would demonstrate Roku's commitment to inclusivity and user-friendly design, appealing to a broader range of customers.
I appreciate your consideration of this request and your ongoing commitment to improving your product. I am confident that such an addition could make a substantial difference in the lives of many Roku users, and I look forward to seeing how your platform continues to evolve.
Thanks
