      Hi Melody, thank you for sharing your concerns. We truly value your feedback and want to express our understanding of your frustration.
      Please note that decisions about app support come from the channel providers, such as Netflix. They regularly update their apps to ensure performance and security improvements. We recommend reaching out to Netflix for further details on their app support for older devices.
      At Roku, we strive to create products that last. While it’s disappointing when older models are no longer compatible with the latest apps, the Roku 2 has served well for nearly 10 years, and we hope to continue providing your household with great streaming experiences! It’s thanks to loyal customers like you that we can continue innovating and improving the streaming world.
      As a tip, you can log into your Roku account at my.roku.com and click on Product Offers to explore exclusive deals on the latest models.
      Thank you for your continued support, and Happy Streaming!

    The remote started working intermittently with a week of purchase. Despite many sets of new batteries, it just doesn't work at all at this point. I reported it to Roku, who seemed uninterested. I'm returning the stick.

    The remote on this Streaming Stick 4K Streaming Device did not work. Defective. Reaching Roku to activate an exchange under the manufactures warrant was impossible. Must now make a special trip to the nearest Best Buy to return and, hopefully, exchange for one that works.

    The Roku streaming stick works, only problem is each show you watch is a payment to Roku, net is it cost more to watch TV with Roku than Comcast. I checked prior to installing it, one must set up a Roku account prior to use. $1.99 / show watched minimum.
