Tip
:
Use the free Roku mobile app on your smartphone or tablet to make searching even faster.
Not only can you use your device’s keypad to type, you can search simply by touching the voice
search icon and saying the name of the movie, TV show, actor or director, channel, or game.
An icon next to each search result shows the category of the result (movie, TV show, actor).
•
Press
RIGHT
to move the highlight into the list of search results.
•
Press
UP
and
DOWN
to scroll through the list of search results to highlight the item you want to
view.
I found a show, now what?
Now that you’ve highlighted the show, movie, actor, game, or streaming channel you were looking for,
press
RIGHT
. If your search result was an actor, director, or other item that does not represent a single
item of content, you’ll see another list to narrow down your search. Continue highlighting results and
pressing
RIGHT
until you find a single, viewable content item.
An
HD
logo means that the content is available in high-‐definition. The checked circle adjacent to the title
means you have already added the streaming channels.
When you narrow down your search to a game or streaming channel, you’ll see detailed information,
images, and available actions such a list of streaming channels and the cost of getting the item on each
channel.
The next time you use Roku Search, the
Search
screen displays a list of recent search selections in place
of the search instructions.
Using the recent search selections list makes it easy to quickly get to a previously found item, for
example, to find another movie with the same actor, or another TV show in the same series.
