The History of the Roku Screensaver: How Roku City came to incorporate all those wonderful Easter Eggs in its beautiful artwork. (1)

The history of the Roku screensaver (and how Roku City was born)

The popular Roku screensaver was created in 2008 to prevent screen burn-in on older TV models. The screensaver later evolved into a feature known as the Roku City screensaver, which displayed scenic images from around the world when the Roku device was not in use. It was introduced with little fanfare, but over time, the screensaver became a fan favorite and, dare we say, a cultural icon.

The first version of the Roku City screensaver featured images of various cities, including New York, Paris, and London. In 2012, Roku introduced a new version of the screensaver that featured user-submitted photos of different cities, allowing users to showcase their favorite travel destinations.

In 2015, Roku added a clock and weather widget to the display for additional information while the screensaver was active. Two years later, Roku introduced a new version of the screensaver with 4K Ultra HD images and videos for even more stunning visuals. It looked like this.

In April 2023, Roku released the Roku City Stroll screensaver, featuring a virtual city filled with billboards and even more Hollywood references. The screensaver was designed by former freelance graphic artist Kyle Jones, who now works at Pixar, and includes hidden Easter eggs and references to beloved films throughout the artwork. He said:

“Rⲟku approached me to reinvent their city skyline screensaver. It was a blast to define the style and research the dozens of film and tv references we snuck in (some obvious and some very not-so-obvious). Rⲟku even ran a contest to see who could find the most references, but sadly I was disqualified.”
