In the previous Roku UI, “Continue Watching” was on the Home screen, and included whatever I was in the middle of, whether TV shows, movies, home videos, etc. Now the Home screen is pretty useless, and to pick up what I was watching I now have to navigate to Libraries, then the particular library, and then I’ll see Continue Watching just for that library. Is there any way to put Continue Watching back on the Home screen? And have it once again include all libraries, and not just one particular library? Aside from the unnecessary navigation added, this new UI now requires me to remember all the libraries that I’m in the middle of. This is the most-used feature in my house, and they really muddled it up for no obvious value.

Yes. You will want to make sure you have favorited the libraries you want, since that contributes to Continue Watching and the Home screen rows.

From the top navigation bar focus on Libraries wait for the row of accessible libraries below it. (actually selecting “Libraries” will select the last used library)
-
Move down to the row then to the far right of the libraries and select the ellipsis menu (…) to see a list of all libraries
-
Select the Heart icon (
) to the right of the libraries you wish to favorite
Oh, nice! Not very intuitive, but I’m glad to get this back. Thanks, and I appreciate the detailed instructions.
I just did this and STILL, continue watching in NOT on the Home Screen? Who the heck came up with this horrible new design?
Any suggestions for getting Continue Watching back, please?
If favoriting your libraries didn’t work, make sure you are on the latest version of the app, then power cycle your device.
If only someone had bothered to print up one lousy page of instructions. Or was this just fixed?
