Experiencing streaming glitches on your Roku TV or Streaming Stick? While these devices automatically check for updates in the background, a manual update can quickly resolve persistent issues. As Roku specialists with years of troubleshooting experience, we've guided thousands through this simple process.
Ensure your device is connected to the internet via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Press the home button (house icon) on your Roku remote to access the home screen. From the left navigation menu, go to Settings > System > System update.
Here, you'll see your current software version and details. Select "Check Now" to scan for available updates.
If an update is ready, choose "Update Now" to proceed—selecting later works too.
The download and installation will begin, depending on your internet connection speed—this may take a few minutes. Your device will then restart to apply the changes, which includes additional setup time.
If problems persist after updating, consider upgrading your setup. Explore our trusted Roku TV recommendations for reliable options.
