### 3/5 — It’s a good app but keeps loading

*2026-04-02, version 1.14*

The app won’t stop loading and it’s kind of making me a bit mad but overall it works perfectly ! It even doesn’t ask for a subscription!

### 3/5 — Good but doesn’t work

*2025-08-22, version 1.14*

It worked super good for me for a week until it started not working it’s not doing a single thing  restarted both of the roku and iPhone but still nothing works I think your app is having a problem

### 3/5 — biggs

*2025-04-27, version 1.14*

not conecting to my tv well but i like that it’s free

### 3/5 — Volume and support page problems

*2025-01-08, version 1.14*

The primary functionality of navigating the Roku DOES work and this appears to be a well-designed program, but unfortunately the volume control buttons do nothing (are totally unresponsive) and the support site is in a language I cannot read and appears to lack language options.

Note that the volume buttons on my physical Roku remote control my TV volume directly (I assume over the HDMI cable) so I am not sure why this app wouldn’t do exactly the same (unless the unlikely case that the physical remote is sending a direct wireless signal to the TV, in which case having volume controls in this app wouldn’t make sense in the first place).

I went to the developer support site and when I saw it was in a language I could not read looked for the typical English option that appear on many sites but there was none.  So I tried to view the desktop version of the page in case the mobile page was limited in terms of language features, but received a security warning for some reason so that didn’t appear to be the solution to the language issue.

A positive is that this app does not try to force use of newer OS versions (thank you).

I need a Roku remote app that supports the volume controls so it would be great if that feature were fixed - thank you

### 3/5 — It was a 5 but it suddenly stopped working

*2024-12-31, version 1.14*

I used this app since my roku remote got damaged, it was perfect. Worked amazing. But 2 weeks ago it stopped working. It looks like its connected to my roku but it does not seem to get or send ant signal. I cannot turn on or off my tv, no button works and it doesn’t read the apps anymore. I’m actually so bummed because it was just what I needed.

### 2/5 — Can’t find all the Roku in the house.

### 4/5 — It works better than the remote that came with it

### 5/5 — Awesome App!

*2024-09-03, version 1.14*

I'm so happy I finally found a free remote app! 
I searched for literally years just to find a remote app I didn't have to pay for! 
Thank God for this app!!! 😁😁😁

### 5/5 — Thank You!

*2024-08-01, version 1.14*

Recently, I have been looking for  tv remote apps for free to use for my Roku tv because I had recently damaged my remote by trying to fix it and only made it worse (trying to solder a piece back in place) so I wasn’t going to buy another remote even tho their cheap junk, but luckily I found this lucky gem on the App Store. So many of them you have to pay a subscription but this one is completely free, no funny business. This app even ASKS you if you want to watch an add to support them and doesn’t invade your phone with a bunch of ads like so many apps do. The fact that it asks me if I want to watch ad to support them is awesome so I was more inclined to do so. This app is better than my tv remote as well, so I’m glad that piece of junk is broken, I had to point that thing to my tv in a specific way just too control it, but luckily I don’t have to do that now, thank you for this app, it was a blessing for me.

### 5/5 — Does its job👌🏽

*2024-01-07, version 1.12*

I open this app when I drop my tv remote behind the bed or I just can’t find it anywhere! Sometimes I just refuse to get up for it haha but this app never fails me. I’m using it right now😌

### 5/5 — Good app, but…

*2023-12-19, version 1.12*

I can’t get the volume to work thru the app for my Vizio TV.
Everything else works very well.
Does anyone else have this problem?

### 5/5 — it great!

*2023-06-19, version 1.12*

absolutely perfect!

### 5/5 — Happy mamaw

*2023-04-27, version 1.12*

My grandkids lost my bedroom remote!! Thank God for this app!!

### 5/5 — I love this app😎😎😎😎😎

*2022-11-25, version 1.12*

This app is better than the other one

### 5/5 — BEST FREE ROKU TV APP FOR iOS & ANDROID & Windows & Linux

*2022-10-30, version 1.12*

The only features not included with free subscription are: Voice, Keyboard, and pointer. Outside of this it is the #1 choice for Roku devices. Any other app will be obsolete, broken, or a waste of time after a few months or a year. I went through 10+ Roku Tv Remote Apps until I found this one.

Thank you Devs! As an I.T. Consultant, I respect the genuine originality of this product.
