ABC News provides both live and on-demand news from ABC News. The Roku app features a live stream of anchored newscasts that include America This Morning and ABC News Live First, but you can also watch on-demand segments under Top News and categories that include current events. At the time of our review, these included College Protests, Trump Investigations, 2024 Presidential Election, Middle East Tension, and several more. (If you're looking for something lighter, scroll all the way down to Uplifting News.)
The ABC News Roku app also includes segments from the following news shows:
- 20/20
- Nightline
- Good Morning America
- This Week with George Stephanopoulos
- World New Tonight
You won't find full episodes of any of these shows, but there are plenty of segments to choose from.
You can also follow one or more of these local stations in the ABC News app: New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Raleigh, Fresno. Just select the settings icon in the upper right corner of the app's home screen to select.
