My Feed
Use My Feed to find out when you can watch movies coming soon, and to get updates on movies, TV shows, and actors that
you are following.
Movies Coming Soon
My Feed gives you updates on your list of movies that are coming soon to theaters. With My Feed, you'll know when your
favorite movie is ready to stream, the channels it is on, and how much it will cost.
Select the movies you want to follow by going to My Feed > Movies Coming Soon. You'll then see a list of newly released
movies that are not yet available for streaming. Select a movie, and then select Follow this movie on Roku. When you
return to the main My Feed screen, you'll see banners for each of your newly-followed movies along with banners for
movies and TV shows you're already following.
Movies, TV shows, and people
In addition to following movies coming soon, you can follow any movie, TV show, or actor. To do this, use the Search feature
to find the movie, TV show, or name that you want to follow, and then select Follow this movie/TV show/person on Roku.

Note
The TV takes a bit of time to update your newly-followed shows. Until it finds at least
one channel offering the movie, the content banner in My Feed shows Check back
later for updates.
My Feed alerts you any time a movie or TV show you are following becomes available on another channel and whenever its
price changes. A number in parentheses next to My Feed in the Home menu means that My Feed has updated information
that you haven't viewed yet. For example, if three of your followed shows have updates, you'll see My Feed (3).
Note
When a movie or TV show you are following becomes available, the streaming
channel offering the movie might require that you subscribe or pay a fee to view it.
Tip
My Feed is available only if your TV is connected to the Internet.
Searching for something to watch
Searching for movies and shows across multiple streaming channels is one of the unique features of your TV. Within a single
search operation, you can search by:
• Movie name
• TV show name
• Actor or director name
• Streaming channel name
• Game name
Tip
Roku Search is available only if your TV is connected to the Internet.
Note
Roku Search doesn't search across all streaming channels, but searches across lots of
popular streaming channels. The actual channels it searches vary by locale, but
include popular providers such as Netflix and several others, with more being added
all the time.
You can check which streaming channels are included in Roku Search by going to the Search screen, clearing all previous
searches to reveal the search instructions, and then watching the channel tiles cycle at the bottom of the screen.
To search, select Search on the Home screen menu. The Search screen has a keyboard grid and initially displays
instructions—a set of icons representing search categories and a list of participating provider tiles.
Tip
If you don't see the instructions, navigate to the end of the list of recent searches and
select Clear recent search selections.
