How To Enable Developer Mode on Roku TV's!
0Enabling Developer Mode on a Roku TV is a useful feature for developers who want to sideload applications or test their own Roku channels before publishing them. This video offers a clear, step-by-step guide on how to activate Developer Mode using your Roku remote or the Roku mobile app. It's important to follow the button sequence carefully, as even one wrong input will require you to start over.
Start by ensuring your Roku TV is powered on and connected to your home Wi-Fi network. Using either a physical Roku remote or the official Roku app as a remote, press the following sequence on the Home screen: press the Home button three times, then press the Up button twice, followed by Right, Left, Right, Left, and Right. This specific button combination opens the hidden Developer Settings menu.
Once on the Developer Settings page, you’ll see an option to enable the Developer Application Installer. When you toggle this option on, you’ll be prompted to accept Roku’s Developer Terms and Conditions. After agreeing, you’ll be asked to create a username and password. Make sure to remember this information, as you’ll need it to access the installer from your web browser later.
After setting a password, the Roku device will reboot. Once restarted, you can access the web-based installer by entering your Roku TV’s IP address into a browser on a device connected to the same network. Log in using the username “rokudev” and the password you created. This interface will allow you to upload and test your own Roku channel packages directly from your browser.
This process is ideal for developers and tech enthusiasts looking to experiment or preview apps before launch, but it should be used responsibly and with secure networks to avoid exposing your device to unnecessary risk.
