author

Good! Keep me posted, please.

Customer Replay

It still says app has encountered an error
Could my password be too short? It is only 6 digits long

author

It can be too short, but if the system doesn't have the error with that it is ok, I think.
Could you please Unplug your Roku TV, wait 60 seconds and then plug it back in?

Customer Replay

Ok
It's unplugged

Customer Replay

Ok

author

As always keep me posted, please.πŸ™‚

Customer Replay

I found it in featured subscriptions in the streelaming channels and it won't let me delete it.
Also when I click on it, it wants me to start a free trial

author

Could it be you've paid for the wrong subscription?

Customer Replay

When I go to the main fox nation and I press the * button, It gives me the option to cancel the subscription
Under manage subscriptions

author

Then please make sure you downloaded the right FoxNation app to your Roku.

Customer Replay

How about if I cancel and try to subscribe on my apple TV instead?
Would that work?

author

Oh, wait, you can try to add that app on your TV and just log it to it with your account, don't delete your subscription before you try this.

Customer Replay

Ok I will try

author

I'm here.

Customer Replay

I was able to sign in on my apple tv and it is unable to load the content

author

Any errors, or something?

Customer Replay

It says Error:1-Default

author

Tell me please, are you trying to connect to streaming FoxNation?

Customer Replay

Yes

author

And how fast is your internet connection?

Customer Replay

It won't let me in Home,Shows,listen and Fox news. It only let's me in on personalities.
I have very high speed

Could you please make a photo of your Roku TV with the error message?
