Roku is not supported in Switzerland
Contra
- Not supported
- No app

Completely unusable!
Contra
- For this necessary app not available in Switzerland.
- Bravo... once again a product without benefit
no Disney +
Disney + is not automatically as advertised on it, even after update and restart!
Returned with lossNo search
Purchased, installed and tried to add apps. Is not possible because the normally available search function is missing. Also the Roku remote APP loaded on the phone does not allow search and makes the device unusable for me. Why is it sold in Switzerland if you can not use it here?
Great price/performance. Good alternative to the Apple TV. BUT - CAUTION, übre VPN to set up.
Not really plug & play as far as channel selection is concerned. If you create an account with residence in Switzerland, the channel selection is miserable (as of April 2022); e.g. no Disneyplus.
To get around this, and get access to all channels, you have to sign up with residency e.g. USA. During the registration (create account) use a VPN (may not be necessary). This way you can create an account with USA and have access to all possible channels like Disneyplus, Paramount+, etc. Some channels can be subscribed with PayPal as payment method, others like HBO not, because you need a USA credit card.Pro
- Cheap, very cheap.

Not for the Swiss market
With some tricks, the ROKU can be set up as if you were in Germany. However, it does not have all German apps compared to Android. Swiss apps are not available (Sky Show is also missing). There are better alternatives for a few francs more.
Contra
- not for Switzerland
- Compared to Android, some apps are missing.
