Adding channels and apps to your Roku device is incredibly simple, which makes it easy to flood your homepage with channels you don't need. Luckily, you can remove channels from your Roku with a few clicks.
Just note that removing a channel like Netflix, which requires a subscription to watch, won't cancel that subscription. You'll need to cancel your account separately if you don't want to pay anymore.
Here's how to remove channels from your Roku, using the device itself or the mobile app.
