I updated my device to Roku OS 13 today.

Not seeing the new features:

backdrops or automatic adjustment to tv settings.

Where can I find these?

We're really excited for these features as well. Roku Smart Picture is coming soon to all Roku TV models. Any Roku-branded TV purchased in the spring of 2024 and onward will come with Roku Smart Picture as the default, and those purchased before that date will need to enable it (in picture settings).

Backdrops will be rolling out to Roku-branded TVs and Roku partner TVs in the coming months, with streaming devices at a later date.

In some cases, you will see OS 13 before these two new features are available.

We can't wait!

Happy Streaming!

I do not want any automatic adjustments to my TV settings. There better be a way to disable these 'features' when they show up, otherwise they will just become annoyances like the home screen rows everyone hated.
