DO NOT UPGRADE

This app worked out just fine before I upgraded and got all the features. Literally right after the upgrade, it hasn’t worked at all. We use 3 Roku TVs throughout our home. Before the upgrade it worked perfectly for each tv. After upgrade, it can’t discover any Roku devices. But the other Roku apps can discover all three. I’ve followed all troubleshooting advice multiple times and still not working. My advice, do not buy the upgrade. Hope this is useful.

incredible! <3

This app is amazing! I don’t usually write reviews but this app deserves it! I couldn’t find my Roku remote so I went to the App Store to see if there was a app for Roku remote and I came across this! It connected when I opened the app by itself! Which is way easier than trying to connect it yourself (if you don’t know how). I recommend this app for you to use!

It’s great!

It’s great, if your too lazy to go get the remote, download it on your phone, BOOM your in control of the tv! It has channels
on the side, almost everything! The only thing I really needed was the headphones, which the other free Roku app has, but that one is usually glitchy, so I mostly use this one. I like the headphones so, the tv isn’t so loud in the house, so my family can mind their own business. Sometimes my siblings are a bit loud and I use headphones, and I can hear it better. That’s it, other than that, this app is great!

Volume control doesn’t work

Got this app as we have multiple Now TV (roku) devices plugged in to different TVs in our house but only 1 of the official remotes which stays in the living room.

The app tends to lose the signal quite a bit but overall it works well.

I purchased the add on for volume control thinking that like the roku Now TV remote, it would manage the volume on any of our TVs but it doesn’t. In the help section it says that if my roku remote allows me to control volume, then this app will too but this is not the case. I don’t know how to get my money back

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

got this app because i’m always losing my remote and the app has a feature that lets you use the keyboard to display on your Roku TV. but the TV didn’t take it and i had to press one by one like i would on an actual remote. usually i wouldn’t be writing a review but given the fact that i had so many ads that said to purchase for $4, i said why not? don’t know if i’m the only one who’s had this issue and could be just a personal experience but it’s still helpful if you can’t find your remote!

Best app

My stupid brother keep taking my remote to work with his like he paid for my tv and this app saved him a beating frfr so download this app if you lost your remote or people trynna be petty and it connected to my tv with no problems! Only thing is volume and other extra features you gotta pay for but it’s worth it.

Absolutely rip off!

Downloaded this app because my Roku remote broke and new one won’t be in until next week. I even paid the $3.99 for the “pro” version so it would control the volume. However most of the buttons don’t function properly. The up/down/side buttons don’t work right at all. If you push the down button, it opens an app instead of going DOWN the list. Same once you’re in the app, can’t move left/right/up/down. Every button you hit wants to start playing whatever show the highlit square lands on. No ability to scroll through and see what’s on and what you want to watch. Complete waste of money!

DON’T BUY!!! Not official

Waste. Doesn’t work. Bought PRO. Doesn’t work, even worse lol. Terrible waste of money and the hype isn’t true. Those positive ratings are false. Made up. Claims? Made up. Kiss your dough goodbye. I got the real Roku app available from Apple Store, it includes power, solid link, easy use and great operation. The other app saves battery life on the remote and it works for all my Roku stuff (3) without a hitch. This one drops TVs and disconnects all the time. Can’t believe I didn’t do my homework. This app is terrible compared to the Roku authorized app. Go get it.

Screwed

I purchased this app because it was the top of the app when I search for Roku little to find out that the Roku app was only a few more down the official one which by the way is completely free if you own a Roku this one makes you pay for free features horrible horrible horrible very misleading
