What the Roku App should have been.

Start the app and there’s your remote buttons and favorite Roku apps, right up front. No pushing a wall of “Just for you!” suggestions out of the way (TLC. Ugh). Wi-Fi, not infrared so you don’t need to point it directly at your Roku. Raise, lower and mute the volume, even with most soundbars. Turn everything off when it’s time to go to bed. And no batteries to buy! Can our TV-viewing lives get any better?

Sick. Exactly what I needed.

I stream news on TV all day when working from home. I always leave my remote someplace where I forget. When phone calls come in and I’m at my desk, I have to quickly mute the TV. Now I don’t have to find my remote and can do it on my computer! This remote works beautifully!

What the Roku App should have been.

Launch your favorite Roku apps with a click; raise, lower and mute the sound (even on a sound bar); shut everything down when it’s time for bed. Can our TV-viewing lives get any better?
