If you want to purchase a new Roku TV, you should sign out of your Roku account to access the account on your new smart TV. Unlike smartphones or PC, you can sign out from the account on your Roku TV (TCL, Sharp, Hisense, JVC, and Philips). You can sign out easily from the official website, Guest Mode, or factory reset. The reason behind the signing out is that the account has the necessary information like settings, channels purchased, and more, which you need when you sign up on your new Roku TV.

Signing Out of Roku Account: Factory Reset
By performing a factory reset on your Roku TV, you can remove the account easily within a few minutes.
Note: Remember that a factory reset will delete all the data and settings stored on your device, which can’t be reverted.
[1] Press Home on the remote to get the home page.

Signing Out of Roku Account: Guest Mode
Unlike other devices, you can use the Guest Mode on Roku TV for the guests to stream the content on Roku. If you have signed up as a Guest, you can quickly sign out from the Roku TV. Also, you can sign out automatically from the device if you have set the date and time.
Signing out of your Roku account removes your data completely, such as channels installed, etc. Still, the actual user account will remain on the TV.
