Searching for free content
You’ll discover an almost endless list of content through your Roku TV, and much of it
is free. You can easily find free content by including the word “free” in your search.
For example:
• Roku Voice remote or Roku mobile app—Say, “Show me free comedies” or “Show me
free romance,” or simply, “Show me free shows.”
• Google Home, Google Pixel phone, or the Google Home mobile app—Say “OK Google,
show me free programs on Roku,” or “Hey Google, show me free
documentaries on Roku.”
• Amazon Alexa—Say “Alexa, show me free miniseries on Roku” or “Alexa, show me
free dramas on Roku.”
I searched for a program. Now what?
Now that you’ve highlighted the program, movie, actor, game, or streaming channel
you were looking for, press RIGHT.
If your search result was an actor, director, or other item that does not represent a
single item of content, you’ll see another list to narrow down your search. Only in the
United States, if you do a Roku Voice search, the TV shows visual search results rather
than a list of text results. In all cases, use the purple directional pad to find the
program you want to watch.
1 Direct-to-playback commands work with selected streaming channels. Direct playback occurs only
when there is a high confidence of match, the content is free or you are already subscribed, and the
channel is already added to your Home screen.
