Unable to add streaming apps like HBO Max and Disney +
Roku model: 3960X , latest software (14.6) Dears, Apps like Disney + and HBO Max do not appear in my streaming store. Before I had Disney + and Netflix and it was just HBO Max that was the problem. However I have done a factory reset and now everything is unavailable. How can I fix this? Thank you for your help.
BJ's Wholesale Roku TV 50R5C6
BJ's Wholesale has a Roku TV model that I can't seem to find any information on at all. The model number is 50R5C6. It says it has a QLED panel but otherwise looks similar to the select series. Where can I find more information about this product? Does it support VRR and Google Cast? What is the power rating on the USB C port?
1GBs ethernet for Roku Ultra (2024)
I would buy 3 or 4 of these if they had at least 1GBs ethernet. Everything else I have is 1GBs to 2.5gbs. Many of us, for very technical reasons, including wifi interference with other systems, do not use wifi. We wish you would listen to the enthusiasts who are looking for the best and would easily pay. This lack of upgrade prevents me from seeing any substantial improvement in my current setup.
Voice remote open app command not working
When I give the voice command to open an app, it gives me a selection menu. For example "Open HBO MAX". It doesn't open the HBO MAX app. It opens a selection menu for selecting the HBO MAX app or Amazon prime HBO MAX or HBO MAX through some other service. How do I get it to open just the regular app not give me a selection menu?
Why I Chose Roku, and Why I'm Losing Faith
I chose Roku because it used to represent something rare in the streaming world: a seamless, user-friendly experience. No clutter. No aggressive promotion. Just a clean interface that respected how I watched, what I watched, and continue watching without disruption. That simplicity was the reason I invested in Roku over other platforms. But lately, that experience has eroded The What to Watch section has become unpredictable, with rows like Explore Recommendations and Your Apps constantly overriding the Continue Watching row—even though Continue Watching reflects actual playback behavior. I've made no changes to my device, yet these overrides persist across sessions, suggesting server-side manipulation without user consent. What's especially frustrating is that Roku offers "Show/Hide" toggles for sections like Live TV and Featured Free, but not for Your Apps, which already exists on the Home screen. Why replicate a row that users have already curated—and allow Your Apps to displace the one row that actually supports continuity I'm reaching the point where I no longer want to use What to Watch section at all. If Roku allowed me to remove every Home screen item except Home and Settings, I would do so in a flash. Not out of spite, but because the interface no longer respects user's intent. It feels like Roku has shifted from empowering users to steering them. I'm posting this not just for myself, but for others who chose Roku for the same reasons I did. If this is part of a test, rollout, or a permanent design change, users deserve transparency—and the ability to opt out. I still believe Roku can course-correct, but that starts with listening to the people who trusted the platform to begin with.
Unable to save changes on Backdrops
Same problem with my Roku's. I remove items from My Favorites or clear My Favorites but when I re-launch Backdrops or reboot the Roku, all the items are back again. Can't get rid of them.
