ITV, or ITVX, is a UK-based streaming platform available on the Roku Channel Store. The app lets you watch Live TV, TV Series/Shows, Movies, and more. You can sign up for ITVX for free to watch selected TV content with ads. However, to unlock all the ITVX TV content on Roku, you need to sign up for its premium for £5.99/month on its website.
Note: The ITV services are only available in the UK regions. So, if you need to stream ITV outside the UK, then I’ll recommend NordVPN for geo-restrictions.
