How to Install & Setup Roku Streaming Stick Plus for Beginners

[@kbrown5218]

Thank you for the very precise instructions. No one has ever told me I would need to give Roku my birthday and a credit card. I reset to factory settings. Now I have a semi used Roku set up. They don't need personal info nor a credit card.

[@SophiaSawyer12]

Glad I saw your post. I too will not give my info or credit card numbers to such a service. Nope.

[@angharadswansea9343]

I just googled to find out whether I had to give my credit card number to Roku and I do not. That is only if I wish to purchase from any of the streaming services. Many of the apps give you free watching, some of them do not. The credit card is for those you want but have to pay for.

[@Blueberrybestiewestie]

You don’t need a card? I didn’t see that you required a card…

[@kbrown5218]

@@Blueberrybestiewestie when I was setting up it asked for my credit card. So I did not complete the set up. Older Roku sticks did not require that info.

Love roku just got the roku streaming stick plus from target for my pops as a gift since he doesn’t have a smart tv it still looks great in 1080P bye bye cable tv🥂😎

[@sabor1970]

Can he still get local channels?

[@quantanglement]

@@sabor1970 No, not like with cable. Maybe some news or network shows delayed. But not live. You'd have to get a streaming service and pay for that or an over the air antenna.

[@danielsus7338]

can u download apps

[@LexieNeevel]

@@danielsus7338 Yes, you can. There's an app store that comes with all Roku devices called ''Roku Channel.''

[@texaswildflower7715]

After watching this... I ordered mine... I love my TV... Just didn't want to buy a new one with Roku.. Thanks!

[@sarahmyk9356]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Appreciate your clear and concise instructions and for showing every step.

[@tinascott3892]

I want to Thank you from the bottom of my heart !!! I haven't been able to set up any Roku, I bought two ...one with the cord and other with the stick and I still couldn't figure it out , bc I am a widow recently and lost my son 11 months ago along with 2 dogs and my son's cat , so what u said that I didn't know was the pairing button!!! Then I listened to you very carefully and I finally am able to watch my TV again!!!! It's a Samsung 2015 hi def ...I want a bigger TV ....which TV would you or anyone on here in the comments recommend? I got this TV for 200$ at BJ's , but I'm no longer a member there , so I do want a larger TV for around 300 ( of course a much bigger TV like maybe a 55 inch ....this is life changing for me , why? Bc I always have to watch my TV in my bedroom bc my son hooked it up plus it's a 55 inch also ....you got me out of my bedroom finally!!!!!! I take care of my grandson and he watches his shows ...so I can't watch mine ...but now I CAN!!! The only question I have is ( not really a big deal but it's annoying) on the upper left hand side of my TV I just set up has this banner on the side ...it says the name of the TV & HDMI & full hd & the serial number.....is there any way if possible to get that banner that goes from each top of the sides of my TV constantly....it's just annoying, but other then that , I'm the happiest girl right now !! I feel great that I actually set it up with your help!!! I never knew the pairing button!!! Then waaaa laaa !!! It's on !! Of course thru the settings you said to do !!! ..sorry for such a long post I give you a million stars for a review!!!! That manic pairing button I never knew!! ( I don't use the speaker 🔊 it's no biggie bc I don't know how to set that up if I even have to who knows!)

Wow. Best explanation ever!!! Really helped me 👍

[@RolfeTaylor]

Does the Roku stick and remote recognize Antennea channels? Will it show among the other apps?

[@gwareb8842]

If you have one already set up in your living room do you still have to go through all these steps AGain if you set one up in your bedroom.

[@tinascott3892]

If you're account is already set up ....no...just paid the remote to your new TV ....I just did it ...with the help of this video!

[@jonathangimbel8734]

thanks really helped in the setup

[@ldrumhel]

Great video. I have two different TV's (Samsung and Visio). I have a Roku streaming device for each one. The Samsung TV has a sound issue in that it spikes a high pitch brief "blip" (sometimes soft, sometimes louder) randomly. In trying to identify the Samsung sound issue, do you think the Roku stick could be associated with that sound problem? I guess I could try to switch Roku devices to help troubleshoot, but haven't.

[@gcobisadeliwe4019]

OMG so straight forward thank you soo much

[@MattRobloxYT1]

Nice video also does this work for other roku streaming sticks?

[@anuebunwannaemeka6177]

Hi! Thanks for creating your video. I can’t seem to figure out how to pair my Roku remote with my Sony Fire TV. It doesn’t want to pair which makes the setup difficult. Any suggestions?

[@moniquesarabia5538]

So this would work on a non smart tv like Toshiba? Brand?

[@KarlBeeThree]

Excellent, well done!

[@darrylhough8872]

Am I able to have two TVs on the wall next to each other, both having Roku and both responding to different Roku remote? And how about three TVs on the wall all responding to a separate remote so I can watch three different channels on three TVs at once

[@tinascott3892]

I just found you can....you have to pair each remote with each tv n bam!! There ya go !! The pairing button I can hardly see ( untill this man mentioned it) it's inside on bottom of the batteries hold in for 5 seconds and it pairs ! Good luck 🤞

[@nicolegregory4429]

This was awesome! Thank you for the walk thru, really appreciate it! ~N

[@partygames1]

Question: Is putting the credit card info required?

[@tinascott3892]

No...not at all unless you're paying for an app ...like I want prime TV ...n my sister told me if I have Amazon prime I can get all the apps I pay for for around 20 dollars , I'm not to sure about that ...the ones I love are under 5$ except Netflix and stars , but Starz has a special right now , but after you don't want that channel anymore I wouldn't know how to unsubscribe ...bc the $ comes right out of my bank account.... peacock and Tubi have some great movies ...but I don't know how to get live TV ...( I'll figure it out ..I just set up my Roku after 2 years bc of this video)

[@JNH1961]

bought a new roku, I set it up like you did, wireless connection entered wi fi etc paired my remote ....everything worked I unplugged it to move it to the bedroom and now I cant pair it at all the time slot on TV says NO CONNECTION instead of the time ...tried everything and not working . the old roku in family room works fine ,,,,,what do I do?

I would think a power strip would be appropriate. You can get them in different lengths and most come with surge protection. That has to be good right?

I only use Roku stick on Roku tv just for demonstration. However some people even with smart tv will buy a Roku or fire stick cause the apps on smart tv is slow or other issues and the stick can just bypass all of that.
