Roku can be used to view the mobile phone images, videos, etc. on your television.

Now press “Ok” to move it to the folder you have reached after moving.

If a user is not satisfied with the default theme of Roku, then they can change it by accessing the other available options for it. It might be because many people don’t like the purple color.
