Quibi is a US-based short-video streaming platform that was launched in April 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the falling short of subscribers, the company was shut down its service and its mobile application in December 2020. Later, in January 2021, Roku acquired the Quibi contents by paying $100 million. The great thing is that the 75+ Quibi shows will now be available on The Roku Channel app. Previously, the app has limited viewing to the smartphone, but The Roku Channel will let you stream the shows on all smart devices.
The Roku Channel app is pre-installed on all the Roku devices and it is completely free to use. If not, you can install the app from the Channel Store.
