    Feature Request: Password-Protect Individual Channels

    Hello - Has there been any consideration by the Roku Development Team to add password protection to accessing individual channels? For example, asking for a PIN when accessing YouTube? It would be a great addition to Parental Controls and should be relatively easy to implement. Right now, my only choice to keep a child from accessing a particular channel is to uninstall it --or take the remote away! :) Thanks!

    Feature Request: Parental Controls

    ROKU, PLEASE IMPROVE/SET UP EXTENSIVE PARENTAL CONTROLS OR I’M SWITCHING TO A PLATFORM THAT HAS THEM ALREADY!!!! I’ll GIVE U A COUPLE MONTHS! People, we need to ban together & bring up this need of ours or Roku will do nothing about it!! Please speak up: post a concern or need of yours regarding parental controls too, or nothing will change!!! There’s power in numbers(& only in #s).

    Feature Request: Parental Controls

    Hello All, As a parent and customer; I am requesting that Roku expand parental controls. My kids need a password to view apps/shows such as "Go Noodle" and "NASA TV" because it doesn't have a rating?! Furthermore, why can't you keep "Kid and Family" screen up all the time for the Roku channel app? If you agree please like this post and post your own comments. Let the Roku company know. Thank you for your time.

    Feature request: parental control for home screen access

    Here’s my use case: my young kids have learned that if they wake up long before my wife and I, they can get on the Roku and watch whatever they want. Not worried about them seeing inappropriate content because we prepare for this. However, we often find them awake at 3:00 AM watching their shows. A few features that would help... 1. Add an optional feature to parental controls that asks for a pin on boot up not just to purchase apps 2. Add a “off-time” scheduler feature that won’t allow the Roku to be used based on a schedule. Maybe a pin override to bypass if needed.

    Feature Request: TV Time Limits in Parental Controls

    So, I have a daughter who has a Roku TV in her room. Recently, I've caught her watching TV late at night on school nights and such. It would be really nice to add a TV Time Limits feature within Parental Controls where you can block the tv from being used after a certain hour (10:00pm to 9:00am, etc.) Confiscating the remote and phone shouldn't have to be completely necessary. Anyway, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the possibility of this getting added sometime in the future. Thanks!
