Grab your remote control, and follow these steps. You can also use the smartphone app's digital remote control to perform all of these same steps. Turn your Roku on and using the arrow keys on the remote control, select the channel that you want to move first. Press the asterisk (*) button and select Move channel. Use the arrow keys to change the placement of that channel among the others. Press the OK button on your remote to save that channel's location. If you want to reorganize all of your channels on your Roku, then all you need to do is repeat the process with each one until everything is as it should be.

How Do I Put Roku Channels in Alphabetical Order
There is no automatic channel organizer on Roku, so if you want to alphabetize your Roku channels, you'll need to move them manually one at a time. The process works the same as the steps above, just start from the beginning and work your way through the letters. Just make sure you remember that whenever you move a channel it will move up all of the channels that were below it, so be sure to start at the highest letter so that you don't have to redo any after the move.

If you want to leave a channel out of sync with the others or don't want it to be organized in the same way, then you can just leave it where it is. Alternatively, you can move it to the bottom using the same method above, or delete the app from your Roku entirely (see the remove channels section towards the bottom of that article).
How Do You Scroll Channels on Roku
To scroll through your channels on your Roku, use the arrow keys on your remote control to navigate up or down. Once you've passed the end of the screen, it will automatically scroll to the next channels down.
