## What is Remote · for Smart TV?

The fastest way to control your Roku® streaming device from your iPhone and iPad. Built for speed, designed to feel native — no ads, no sign-up, no nonsense.

— FEATURES —

Full Remote
• D-Pad with haptic feedback
• Volume, mute, channel up/down
• Play, pause, scrub, skip
• Power on/off — even when your Roku is asleep (Wake-on-LAN)

Voice Search
• Hold the mic, say "The Bear" — your Roku jumps straight to results across every app
• Transcription happens on-device; nothing leaves your phone

Live Now Playing
• See what's playing the instant it changes on the TV
• Real-time progress bar, app icon, episode title
• Quick-launch your favorite apps in one tap

Universal Search
• Type once, search across Netflix, Hulu, Max, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Disney+, Paramount+, Peacock, Crunchyroll, YouTube, Twitch, Spotify and more

Effortless Setup
• Auto-detects every Roku on your Wi-Fi in seconds — no IP addresses to type
• Falls back to a brute-force network scan if your router blocks discovery
• Pair multiple Rokus and switch with one tap

Designed for iOS
• Universal app — iPhone + iPad
• Light + dark mode
• Beautiful animations, native gestures, supports external keyboards
• Works fully offline once paired (just needs the same Wi-Fi as your Roku)

— REQUIREMENTS —
• Roku streaming device or Roku TV running OS 9.0+
• iPhone or iPad on the same Wi-Fi network
• Local Network access permission (asked on first launch)

— PRIVACY —
This app talks directly to your Roku over your local Wi-Fi. No accounts, no analytics, no third-party servers. Voice transcription is handled on-device by Apple's Speech framework.
