If you’re like most people, you probably have a Roku streaming device in your home. But if you’ve been using it a lot lately, you may have noticed that the number of channels has been dwindling. In this article, we’ll show you how to remove channels from a Roku so that you can get more content to watch. First, open the Roku app on your device. Next, go to the “My Channels” section. Here, you’ll see a list of all the channels that are currently installed on your Roku. If you want to remove a channel from your Roku, just click on it and then click on the “Remove” button. Once a channel has been removed from your Roku, it will no longer appear in the “My Channels” section or in any other part of the app. However, if you want to reinstall that channel later on, just go back to the “My Channels” section and add it again. ..
There are two places where you can uninstall channels and games—directly from the home screen and in the Channel Store. The home screen is the easiest method, but we’ll show you both.
