The Roku OS is an operating system, by Roku Inc., which powers consumer electronics such as smart TVs and streaming devices. Based on Linux, it features a user interface to access Roku's Channel Store. In 2022, the Roku OS reportedly had 70 million users,[4] and led the U.S. smart TV and streaming device sector.[5][6]

The Roku OS serves as a video streaming platform that hosts both free and paid "channels".[7][8] The operating system initially debuted on Roku's streaming devices in 2004,[9] and expanded support to smart TVs starting in 2016. It is also used in Roku-branded home entertainment devices, such as smart speakers, as of 2023.[8][10]
