Not adaptable

I tried Ro To Sleep and does not pair with my TV’s. Both are Roku

UPDATE- IT WORKS on Roku Ultra

Developer responded- advised of a Roku software revision, provided a solution.. works well..

Response from developer

There’s a Roku new setting that must be changed to allow Ro To Sleep to function. This setting is located at Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Control by mobile apps from the Roku home screen. This setting must be set to “Permissive” or “Enabled” to allow Ro To Sleep to function.

Does not work on my Roku Ultras..

No response from tech-support does not work on my Roku ultras waste of money

Where’s the support?

I wrote to the developers several months ago regarding an error that combined days of sleep. They said they’d get back to me. Months later I wrote again. This time no reply. The problem still persists with no resolution (and no response) from the developers.

Sleep timer

I love the fact that I can do this while I’m laying in bed. I don’t have to get up to let my elderly mother know, that it’s time for her to lay down for sleep. So for now she knows that when it’s dark and I’m not in the room. If the TV shuts off on its own. Time for bed. I had to hide the regular remote from her. She would stay up all night. And I know some people say what’s wrong with that? Well, if that happens the next day all she does is fall down and hurt herself.
So, I had to figure something out. As of right now this is working. So, Ty.

app is useless

no “scan” button found no way to hook up my roku to this app. this app is scam and waste of time. i know it’s not my roku cause it shows on my airplay on any other app but this one. please fix this.

Finally a solution for putting Roku to Sleep

I’m glad that somebody finally took the initiative and created an app to put Rokus to sleep. This is a nice little app but I wish there was some confirmation that the sleep timer has actually started. Possibly a clock counting backwards or some type a message that the timer has started.

Won’t let me upgrade

Three free tries worked fine for me with my Roku Ultras. However, app won’t let me upgrade! Didn’t expect that to be the function that wouldn’t work. LOL.

Response from developer

This has hopefully been fixed now (better late than never!).

App is crashing when I try to purchase for unltd

Love the app and used it with great results for the first 3 nights then when it came time to purchase the unlimited use the app keeps crashing. If it weren’t for that I’d be using it and loving it still!

Does. Not. Work.

App found both units but timer didn’t shut the Roku down. Used up my 3 free tries, glad I didn’t pay for it.

Great concept, just needs execution.

App does not work

I was able to scan and find my 3 rolls, but it did not work on any of them.

Stopped Working

The app no longer works. Not sure if it is because of the new iOS or the new iPhone 11pro. I emailed about it last week, no response.

Response from developer

I’m sorry you had trouble with Ro To Sleep. An iOS 13 compatible update has been released. Please give that a try.

Roku 2

I’ve tried this a handful of times with my Roku 2, with up to date software, and it has not been working. Tested with the ESPN and PlayStation Vue channels.

Does not work

The app did not function at all.

No Developer Response

This app used to work, until I could no longer enable notifications on it, rendering it unusable. I’ve reinstalled it, reset my phone, etc. Nothing worked. Sent an email to the so-called support with my debug info and have never heard back. It’s been weeks. I sympathize with developers running into problems — they’re unavoidable and take time to fix — but the lack of communication is extremely disappointing. I can’t say for sure if the notification problem is limited to just me or not. It is (or was) a good app, but right now, it’s pretty hard to recommend.

Just downloaded

Checking to make sure it works. So far so good!

No support from developer

Sent email below to support a week ago without any response so far. Maybe sending it this via will work.

Describe your problem:

App doesn't stop the Roku from playing.

Facts / debugging information:
This happened on the very first time I set the timer after I purchased the app.

After setting timer I don't close out of the app but keep it running in the background

Seems that when I reopen the app after timer is overdue, the app reconnects to Roku and sends the home button signal to Roku.

Help please
