Is there a roku app for apple tv?

I have the Apple TV HD and am looking at the different streaming services available. I noticed that there is an Apple TV+ app for the Roku, was wondering if things went the other way as well.

Apple TV HD, tvOS 13

Yeah, I've done that, even been to the Roku website, too much conflicting information, and most of it doesn't have a date associated, so you don't know how old it is, or if things have changed. I found one site that said YouTube TV isn't on ATV, when I know it is. The other confusion is Apple's decision to name its web streaming service the same as its device, so that just ads to the confusion on the web.

You can't subscribe to YouTube TV from an ATV any longer. Once you subscribe, you can log in on your ATV. Google did this so they don't have to pay the 20% to Apple.


But, no, there doesn't seem to be a Roku app for the ATV.

If you have a smart TV, you might be able to download the Roku app to that.
