Roku remains a top choice for streaming fans looking to enjoy their favorite shows and films. If you’ve cut the cord, Roku provides access to more than 500 live TV channels, with fresh options regularly added. These channels cover a wide range of interests, from news and lifestyle to comedy, crime, sci-fi, anime, and movies. Last year, Roku expanded its sports lineup by launching the Roku Sports Channel, which streams live MLB games, Formula E races, wrestling, MMA events, and more. In its latest move, Roku aims to enhance your experience by making it easier and quicker to explore its extensive content library and discover the channels that match your tastes.
Roku channels are now easier to find, not just on Google TV but also directly on the Roku platform itself. Building on their improved visibility and discoverability on Google TV’s home screen, Roku is introducing a new personalized feature for its Live TV Guide. Available today in the U.S., this update adds a customized row at the top of the Live TV Guide, showcasing channels tailored to each user’s viewing habits. By analyzing “user engagement,” Roku aims to surface the most relevant content, ensuring your favorite or must-watch channels are just a click away for faster access.

The personalized row will showcase 10 carefully selected channels that align with your current viewing preferences, with the selection dynamically adjusting as your habits evolve. Beyond tailored content, the row will also spotlight key events happening throughout the year, such as major news stories, significant sports competitions, election coverage, and other timely occurrences, ensuring you stay informed regardless of your usual watch list. This enhancement follows Roku’s recent upgrade to their popular Roku City screensaver, which now displays in crisp 1080p resolution instead of 720p, further improving the overall user experience.
