Remote Customer Insights

1. This app does everything the remote does so is highly recommendedThis app didn't even work with my Roku or my TV and I got ads in the middle of me trying to use a remote if you want to make a remote app please don't add ads because it just makes the experience worse for everyone I would give zero stars but sadly I can't so if there were not so many ads and it worked with all roku's I would be happy with this app.I misplaced the remote for my Roku stick in the living room.it's easy to use my phone and my remote didn't have a microphone on it so it's actually better use my phone so I don't have to type out everything.

2. Of course they arent on the same connection, my tv doesnt have wifi, its why i got a roku player.well the remote feature works but every 4 or 5 clicks and you fight ads constantly.

3. But, this is a free roku tv remote app that works and required no additional setup other than installing it.

4. Than "Remote for Roku", is a must have on your smartphone.I just need a remote for my roku player, this app said that it was just that, but for some reason it needs something to do with my tv.

5. Has a nice user interface giving it that Roku Remote look.

6. That said, if your like me, and your Roku remote keeps sprouting legs and walking off.

7. Recommend this to anyone instead of using physical remote or if it is lost.it works, only for very few tasks.

8. Do yourself a favorcand look at different apps.Does exactly what it says on the tin! Tried the official Roku app and no matter what I did it would not link to my Now TV box.

9. Volume, brightness, sound settings... pretty much everything used daily with a regular remote, forget it.

10. Does everything the (lost ) remote used to do.

11. Lost my remote and found this app.
