A Roku TV, set-top box, or streaming stick provides access to thousands of channels offering subscription, pay-per-view, and free streaming content. With all of this functionality, Roku devices, with the exception of Roku TVs, do not have an on/off switch. Here's how to turn off your Roku devices when it's time to power down.

If you're wondering why your Roku stick (Streaming Stick, Express, Express+, or Premiere) or box (Ultra or Ultra LT) doesn't have an off button, it's because these devices are not designed to turn off.

Roku devices use very little power. These devices are designed to stay connected to the internet to download OS updates and keep other apps and channels up to date.

When you’re done watching your streaming entertainment and turn off the TV, the Roku device will go into standby or sleep mode. It will continue to use a small amount of power.
