How to Add and Activate NBC on Roku

In this guide, I am going to tell you how to add and activate NBC on Roku to watch on-demand content. While NBC provides free live TV streaming you cannot watch most of the shows being telecasted in the US. The primary reason is geographical limitations set for content broadcasting.

However, with NBC installed on your Roku streaming device, you can watch all the contents you want pretty easily. Along with NBC, you can also enjoy the content on NBCUniversal Family.

I have separately explained the steps to install NBC on Roku and then activate the streaming. Let’s check them out.
