Cord Cutters Beware! This has not been widely reported, but as of the middle of December 2020, the Spectrum TV app is no longer available in the ROKU app store. If you already have it on your ROKU device it should still keep working, but if you delete it or have a new device and try and load it, it cannot be found. If you have a working Spectrum TV app on your ROKU – Don’t Delete It! – because you won’t be able to reload it, at least for now. Hopefully ROKU and Spectrum will eventually work out a deal and this will get back to the way it was, because a lot of people like the ROKU devices and purchased them specifically to utilize the Spectrum TV app and not have to pay monthly for a Spectrum cable box.

Here is a link to the Spectrum statement on the situation: Spectrum Roku Update

I can’t really find a statement from ROKU on the situation, even though it seems like they rejected the contract renewal between the two companies.

It sounds like they will eventually work something out again, but in the meantime you can use an Apple TV 4K, 2012 or newer Samsung Smart TV, iOS/Android device, XBOX ONE or Kindle Fire.

Spectrum is currently transitioning customers from Time Warner accounts to Spectrum accounts. This sometimes involves new modems, routers, cable boxes and a fair amount of coordination with Spectrum. If you don’t know how to do this, or just don’t want to deal with it, call Tech Ease! We can swap out any equipment they send, coordinate the activation with Spectrum, make sure everything is working well and suggest recommendations for improvements.
