CW app not remembering watch history

This has been my issue too. I did the above including the “settings restart” and it still says “looks like you haven’t watched anything yet” in the “continue watching section. #CW

Re: CW app not remembering watch history

Hello! @Jessjugglingall,

Welcome aboard here in the Roku Community!

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the CW app. We are delighted to be of assistance to you.

  • Is this the first time you have experienced this issue?
  • Is the issue happening on all contents/channels or is this isolated to 1 content/channel?

We recommend performing the below steps and see if you can resolve the issue:

1. Remove the channel from the Roku device

2. Power cycle the Roku device, by disconnecting it from the power cable and reconnecting the device back to the power

3. Re-add the channel back to the Roku device

Please keep us posted on what you find out, and we will be happy to continue assisting you further. We look forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks,
Arjiemar

Re: CW app not remembering watch history

The CW app is useless. It has no user accounts, so every device is unique as far as it's concerned. The developer is "The CW Network" according to the channel store. It's up to them to fix the app.
