Hi! I see you’re having trouble getting Real America’s Voice (RAV) on your Roku. Let’s get that sorted out.

Could you tell me exactly what happens when you try to open or find the RAV app on your Roku? For example, does the app not appear in the Roku Channel Store, does it crash when opening, or is the channel missing from your Roku home screen? That info will help me guide you better.

Meanwhile, I can share some general insights based on recent reports:
- Some users have noted that the Real America’s Voice channel has occasionally been missing or temporarily removed due to provider or Roku platform issues.
- The channel may still be available in the Roku Channel Store (sometimes under the name “America’s Voice News”), so checking for it there is a good start.
- If you had the app but it crashed or showed a “be back shortly” screen, removing and reinstalling the channel, plus ensuring your Roku firmware is fully updated, often helps.
- Occasionally, alternative ways to watch RAV include using their own app or platforms like Pluto TV if the Roku app is acting up.

Once I get a clearer picture of your exact issue on Roku, I can provide step-by-step instructions. Looking forward to your response!

Be back shortly

Thanks for the extra info! The "Be back shortly" message on the Real America's Voice News app on Roku is something other users have encountered, often indicating the channel is temporarily unavailable or experiencing a service disruption.

From reports on the Roku community forums, this message appeared during specific programming and the channel was offline for roughly 1.5 hours during those times4 5. This suggests it's an issue on the channel/provider side rather than your Roku device.

Here's what you can try to get back to viewing:

1. Restart your Roku device: Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds, then plug it back in and try the channel again. This refreshes the connection.

2. Remove and reinstall the RAV channel:
- From your Roku Home, navigate to the RAV channel, press the * key on your remote, and select Remove Channel.
- Restart your Roku device.
- Go to the Roku Channel Store, search for “Real America’s Voice” or “America’s Voice News,” and add the channel again.

3. Check for Roku system updates:
- Go to Settings > System > System update > Check Now. Make sure your Roku is fully updated.

4. Try alternative ways to watch temporarily: If the problem continues, you might watch Real America's Voice on their website or through other platforms like Pluto TV or Samsung TV Plus in the meantime3.

If after these steps the channel persists with the “Be back shortly” message for a long period, it’s likely something on the provider’s end, and I recommend contacting Real America's Voice support or waiting for their service to be restored.

Does that help clarify things? Would you like me to walk you through any of those steps?

Thank you

Hey! If you’re looking to download the Real America’s Voice News app, here’s what I found that will help you get it on your device:

1. For Apple devices like your Mac or iPhone/iPad, you can download the app directly from the Apple App Store here:
Real America's Voice News on Apple App Store
This app is designed for iOS/iPadOS, but you can also use it on Mac if you have an M1 or later chip Mac that supports running iOS apps.

2. If you want to browse all official Real America's Voice apps and downloads, they have a webpage where you can choose your preferred device:
Real America's Voice News Apps
That page will guide you to download options for phones, tablets, smart TVs, and more.

Since your Mac is running OS X 10.15.7 (Catalina), this version does not natively support iOS apps. So, you won’t be able to run the iPhone/iPad app directly on your Mac without an M1/M2 chip Mac or virtualization. But you can always watch their live stream or content via their official website on your Mac’s browser here:
Real America's Voice News Live

If you're trying to get it on a different device like Roku or Amazon Fire TV, let me know, and I can help guide you specifically for those platforms!

Hope this gets you started. Would you like me to walk you through installing on any particular device?
