Own an Older Roku and Watch Netflix? Soon You'll Need to Update to a Newer Roku Model


Netflix users with older Roku players have been receiving popup notices when launching Netflix lately. Telling them their older Roku device will no longer support their channel on Roku after December 2019.

This error message on older Roku models showed up after a recent Roku OS Update to version 3.1 and here is what it says:

Due to technical limitations, Netflix will no longer be available on this device after December 1st, 2019. Please visit netflix.com/compatibledevices for a list of available devices.



Why Is Netflix Doing This?
