This latest update delivers fresh entertainment options across genres, giving users instant access to reality programming, creative arts, family-friendly content, sports highlights, breaking news, science education, travel adventures, and more. The move comes as part of Roku’s ongoing effort to grow its ad-supported library and provide value-packed viewing experiences without subscriptions or fees. Viewers can simply navigate to The Roku Channel on their devices, where the new channels appear alongside thousands of existing movies, shows, and live channels.
This comes after Roku added 22 new live channels in April 2026.
