If you don\u2019t watch an installed channel on your Roku anymore, you can remove the channel from your device. This declutters your channels list and makes it easy to find the channels that you actually want to watch<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are multiple ways to remove channels from Roku. You can use the Roku device itself or the Roku mobile app to remove a channel. Later, you can re-add the same removed channel if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Check and Cancel Roku Channel Subscriptions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can\u2019t remove a channel if you have an active subscription to that channel. You must first cancel that subscription and then get rid of the channel. You can manage all your active subscriptions on Roku\u2019s website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case you\u2019ve subscribed to a channel from a source other than Roku, but from within that channel, you don\u2019t have to end your subscription to delete the channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s how to check your active Roku channel subscriptions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Launch a web browser on your device and open the Roku<\/a> site. Sign in to your Roku account.<\/li>
  2. Select the user icon at the top-right corner of the site and choose My account<\/strong> from the menu.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
    1. Select Manage your subscriptions<\/strong> in the Manage account<\/strong> section on the account page.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
      1. Under Active Subscriptions<\/strong>, you\u2019ll see all your channel subscriptions. Cancel the subscription for the channel that you want to remove.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

        If the channel you want<\/a> to remove isn\u2019t listed on that page, you can go to the next section of this guide to remove that channel. Note that you can continue to enjoy the subscription benefits until the end of your current billing cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Step 2: Remove Roku Channels<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Now that you\u2019ve confirmed you no longer have an active subscription with the channel you want to remove, here are a few ways to get rid of that channel from your Roku device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Remove a Channel From the Roku Channels List<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

                    1. Select Remove<\/strong> in the warning prompt to confirm your choice.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                      \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

                      Roku will delete the chosen channel on your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      Remove a Channel From the Roku Mobile App<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

                      Roku\u2019s mobile app allows you to perform various actions on your Roku device, including uninstalling installed channels. You can use this app on both your iOS and Android phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      If you have the app installed on your phone, and you\u2019ve paired the app with your Roku device, here\u2019s how to use the app to remove your channels:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      1. Launch the Roku<\/strong> app on your phone.<\/li>
                      2. Select Devices<\/strong> at the bottom of the app to view your Roku device.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                          2. Tap and hold on the channel you\u2019d like to remove. Do not just tap a channel, as this will cause your Roku device to launch it.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                            \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
                            1. Select Remove<\/strong> on the page that opens.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                                \"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

                                Your channel is now removed, and you\u2019ll no longer see it on your Roku device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                What to Do if You Can\u2019t Remove a Channel From Your Roku Device?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                                Update Your Roku\u2019s Software<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

                                It goes without saying that you should keep your Roku\u2019s software up to date. This ensures that you have the most bug-free version of the software. This also fixes any issues you might be experiencing with your Roku.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                  1. Navigate to System<\/strong> > System update<\/strong> in the Settings menu.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
