Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #330





Hi, everyone !!



With a 'Federal Holiday' falling on Thursday this past week in the United States - better known to all who celebrate it as the '4th of July' (or, 'Independence Day', as it's officially known) - you could be forgiven for thinking that there might have been a (slight) drop in the number of new Roku channels released during the last seven days. However, surprising though it may seem, I am pleased to report we've actually seen a small increase, in terms of new Roku apps, when compared to last week and delighted to say we've had ANOTHER DECENT CROP OF NEW CHANNELS to further boost the UK Channel Store total. To wit, no less than NINETY-ONE NEW ROKU APPS have been added to the already vast selection of over seven thousand three hundred apps which populated the channel store as of this time last week. That means we have now seen almost two thousand six hundred new apps made available, during a period of just twenty-seven weeks, any of which UK Roku owners can add to the individual selection of apps that are installed on their device(s). As if that wasn't enough... there were also several items of streaming-related news for me to report on but, as has been the case for the last few months I must (again) postpone my summary of Roku (and other) news from the past week until I can find time to catch up with everything and add the "missing" details to those posts - since, right now, I must (instead) focus on listing all these new Roku apps for you! :-)


Before I get into the current list of channels, however, I would just like to point-out that the ongoing issue of "missing" reviews from the 'Roku Guide' website appears to have worsened (yet again) since my previous article for this blog. Over the last twenty-seven weeks, my 'Weekly RoundUp' posts have seen a total of 2,564 new channels added. Meanwhile, the number of 'Roku Guide' reviews being published has continued to fall short of the mark during that time. Looking at all of the articles they have published since the start of the year, there has been a total of only 717 new reviews added to their website. With a minimum of around another eighty-seven "missing" reviews from the last week they remain more than seventy percent short of where they should be and, if this continues, there could be hundreds (if not thousands) more Roku channels with no corresponding independent review for me to provide a link from each of the relevant 'Weekly RoundUp' posts on my blog. I hope this shortfall is addressed soon because, as mentioned twenty-three weeks ago, the current situation isn't good for anyone connected to Roku: be they end-users, developers, bloggers like myself, or even Roku - whose platform provides the very source from which 'Roku Guide' generate their reviews! :-O


Still, back to the list... which, as always, will help you to identify the very latest apps that have been added to Roku devices in the UK. Other websites offering Roku channel listings will base their contents on the Roku USA Channel Store, which means they also include apps that are unavailable to UK Roku users. So, like I've said before... if you really want to know what's available channel-wise, for owners of Roku devices in the UK, you need to be reading this blog each and every week! ;-) :-)


With twice the number of active links to check out, not just for this week... but each and every post that has been previously published as part of my 'Weekly RoundUp' series over the last six and one quarter years, there's a *lot* to catch-up on. So, without further ado, here's my 'Weekly RoundUp' of all the new Roku channels released between 30th June 2019 and 6th July 2019:-







HIDIVE........................COST: FREE (14-day trial) + $4.99 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "FILM & TV" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, although this 'HIDIVE' channel is FREE-TO-ADD to your Roku device(s) and does offer a handful of FREE-TO-STREAM videos from around a dozen different anime series as well as the ability to browse the entire video library without charge, anyone interested in watching their content in the long-term should be aware that A SUBSCRIPTION WILL BE REQUIRED at a cost of either USD $4.99 PER MONTH (as outlined above) or USD $47.99 PER YEAR, plus any taxes which may apply, in order to continue streaming from this service once their introductory offer of a FREE 14-DAY TRIAL has come to an end. For those who intend to subscribe over a 12-month period, the ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION OPTION is equivalent to a 20% SAVING over the course of a whole year, when paid in advance as a lump sum, versus the cost of paying month-to-month. If you are considering a subscription to this service, I recommend you visit the official 'HIDIVE' website to get a better idea of what to expect when you first sign-up to start watching their anime collection. You will also find a brief overview of their Roku channel in the 'Roku  Guide' review (see link above) that lists the various categories of anime videos that are available to stream for free and/or paid users! :-)

***FILED UNDER: "GAMES" in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, despite mentioning how "If you find yourself running low on tokens you can also purchase more using your Roku account information" as part of their review (see link above), the 'Roku Guide' webpage containing this review incorrectly states "FEES: None" with regards to the use of this 'SlotsTV' channel. However the fact that the description of this app from the Roku Channel Store states it "May require additional fees", combined with the fact you are requested to authorise this game to access your Roku account information when you first install it, is a reasonable indicator that (once your allocation of 2000 free tokens has run-out) there is a good chance you will need to part with your hard-earned cash to continue playing this game once any freebies are used-up! ;-) :-)

***FILED UNDER: "LIFESTYLE" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- There seems to be a couple of typos in the name of this channel, whereby the word "Reto" has been used instead of the word "Retro", and; no apostrophe has been inserted before the letter 's' in "70's" - as displayed on the channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) for the app, as well as in the description of the app from the Roku Channel Store - but, rather than correct it, I have decided to include the title "as is" until such a time as the developer sees fit to change it. However, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity to make it clear this does not constitute any error on my part! ;-) :-)







RETRO PULP CHANNEL...............................COST: £1.49 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "LIFESTYLE" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

***FILED UNDER: "LIFESTYLE" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***






MIDNIGHT SEXY CINEMA.................................COST: £1.49 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]

***N.B. THIS WAS UNCATEGORISED in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, while this 'Midnight Sexy Cinema' channel for Roku devices can be found within the 'Just Added' category (i.e. genre) of the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store, no permanent category / genre had (at the time of writing) been assigned to the channel in the UK. If I somehow succeed in bringing this matter to the attention of the developer / content provider, I'd expect to see this app given a permanent "home" under 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' in the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store within a few weeks of so-doing. In the meantime, if you don't wish to trawl through the 'Just Added' category of the channel store to find it, I suggest you take advantage of the built-in Roku 'Search' feature to locate and install it. Using this method, you probably won't even need to finish typing the word "Midnight" before seeing the channel listed among the 'Search Results' displayed on the right-hand side of your television screen. Failure to assign a permanent channel store category for the UK within the next two weeks (however) would mean that, once it ceases to be part of the 'Just Added' category, it would no longer be listed in the channel store. So, if you think you're likely to want this channel, my advice would be to install it by the middle of July (at the latest) because, if the necessary edits are not made to the Roku channel package (.PKG file) by that time, you will not see it there afterwards. Needless to say, if/when the channel is edited to include a permanent channel store category for the UK, I'll update this listing with details of whatever genre has been assigned to it. As mentioned above I'd expect this to be the 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' genre, but it could (possibly) wind-up in another category.







FOURTH OF JULY SCREENSAVERS.......COST: £0.69 (ONE-OFF PAYMENT) [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "SCREENSAVERS" in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***







BEACH SCREENSAVERS................COST: £0.69 (ONE-OFF PAYMENT) [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "SCREENSAVERS" in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***






RETRO MONSTER CHANNEL............COST: £1.49 (ONE-OFF PAYMENT) [Roku Guide Review]

***N.B. THIS WAS UNCATEGORISED in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, while this 'Retro Monster Channel' app for Roku devices can be found within the 'Just Added' category (i.e. genre) of the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store, no permanent category / genre had (at the time of writing) been assigned to the channel in the UK. If I somehow succeed in bringing this matter to the attention of the developer / content provider, I'd expect to see this app given a permanent "home" under 'Lifestyle' - as with other similar "Retro" movie apps featured in this list - or the 'Film & TV' category of the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store within a few weeks of so-doing. In the meantime, if you don't wish to trawl through the 'Just Added' section of the channel store to find it, I suggest you take advantage of the built-in Roku 'Search' feature to locate and install it. Using this method, you probably won't even need to finish typing the words "Retro Monster" before seeing the channel listed among the 'Search Results' displayed on the right-hand side of your television screen. Failure to assign a permanent channel store category for the UK within the next two weeks (however) would mean that, once it ceases to be part of the 'Just Added' category, it would no longer be listed in the channel store. So, if you think you're likely to want this channel, my advice would be to install it by the middle of July (at the latest) because, if the necessary edits are not made to the Roku channel package (.PKG file) by that time, you will not see it there afterwards. Needless to say, if/when the channel is edited to include a permanent channel store category for the UK, I'll update this listing with details of whatever genre has been assigned to it. As mentioned above I'd expect this to be the 'Lifestyle' or 'Film & TV' genre, but it could (possibly) wind-up in another category such as the 'Special Interest' genre (for example).

SURVIVAL PREPPERS TV...................................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "LIFESTYLE" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That there seems to be a typo in the name of this channel, as well as the description for the app, such as it appears in the Roku Channel Store… whereby the word "Survival" has been used instead of the word "Survivalist" - as displayed on the channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) for the app. Of course, it could be that the name shown on the channel icon is wrong but, rather than correct it, I have decided to include the title "as is" until such a time as the developer sees fit to change it. However, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity to make it clear that this does not constitute any error on my part... when compared to the title shown in the above channel icon! ;-) :-)







ANDYSFISHING WILD COOK.................................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "LIFESTYLE" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That there appears to be a 'typo' in the name of this channel, whereby the words "Andy's" and "Fishing" - as displayed on the channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) for the app - have been condensed to form "Andysfishing" but, since the developer is also quoted as 'Andysfishing', it is not clear which of the two is the intended format. Of course, it could be that the name shown on the channel icon is wrong but, rather than correct it, I have decided to include the title "as is" until such a time as the developer sees fit to change it. However, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity to make it clear this does not constitute an error on my part... versus the title in the channel icon! ;-) :-)

SD REAL ESTATE SOLD BY OWNER......................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "SPECIAL INTEREST" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, although the title for this 'SD Real Estate Sold By Owner' channel includes the abbreviation 'SD' for the U.S. State of "South Dakota", the channel description (instead) mentions the U.S. State of "North Dakota"… perhaps copied from the 'ND Real Estate Sold By Owner' app released last week, which featured as part of my 'Roku UK Channel Store Weekly RoundUp #329' post, but certainly not what you would expect in reference to the 'SD' abbreviation. Of course, it may be that the name shown in the Roku Channel Store is wrong but, rather than correct it, I have decided to include the title "as is" until such a time as the developer sees fit to change it. However, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity to make it clear this does not constitute any error on my part! ;-) :-)

*********************************************



Anyhow, like it or not, that is your lot this week and, while I don't yet have an exact figure for the new apps which were added to the "Official" Roku USA Channel Store in the same time-frame, at least you have another 91 NEW CHANNELS to keep you occupied while I check the numbers! :-) Meanwhile, for those still clinging-on to their NowTV device(s) for whatever reason, I'm afraid to say that, much like most weeks, there were zero new Roku channels (apps) added to the 'App Store' on NOW TV products... meaning the total number of available apps remains at just forty-one! :-(


Moreover, with no 'TVPlayer' or 'Prime Video' apps (to name but two) among the selection of channels found in the NOW TV 'App Store' - despite having dedicated channels for both of them on UK Roku devices - the range of NowTV-branded products continues to fall short of the mark in terms of current streaming needs for many in the UK. So, the best way to increase your choice of streaming services, is to swap any NowTV-branded products you own for genuine Roku-branded media players which can provide access to 7,300+ apps of content from a vast assortment of providers! :-D ;-)


In any event, hopefully everyone in the UK with a Roku player managed to find something they like within the ninety-one "public" channels outlined above... or else the "private" channels "gifted" to you via the companion Twitter Feed: @ukrokuchannels to this blog, at various points over the past six and one quarter years. However, if you didn't find anything to add to your own Roku channel selection from the vast assortment of apps on offer this week, you can always pay us a visit another time when, with any luck, there will be something more to your liking. After all there's no point installing every app because, when it comes to adding new channels to your Roku devices, IT'S YOUR CHOICE and, as with all things Roku... THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS YOURS!



*********************************************


As touched upon previously, you can expect my usual summary of all the goings-on (or not) in the (severely restricted) Roku Channel Store (aka "App Store") that features on NowTV devices to carry on in future posts. Meanwhile, whether you happen to own a Roku player, NowTV Box, OR BOTH, as I do... be sure to check my earlier posts (as mentioned previously) for details of all new additions to the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store in each of the two hundred and fifty-six preceding weeks, then come back again in seven days' time for my next 'Weekly RoundUp'. Hopefully, by the time I make my next post, I may even have sorted out another (new) companion Twitter Feed to replace the now suspended: @ukrokuchannels account so there'll still be a presence on the social media platform via which up-to-the-minute info on Roku-related matters (here in the UK) is posted on a daily basis!



Until the next time, then...



That's all folks !!
