It just works

Thank you Scott for this app! My routine on the couch is to switch focus between Roku TV and MacBook. Handy to be able to mute sound or do other stuff without having to reach for physical remote.

Awesome!

This is such a great app to have; deafently recommend!

A Flawless Roku Remote for Free!

My Roku remote power button stopped working, so I needed an app to replace it. I was frustrated that so many of the other apps required a subscription for something so basic. This app worked right away and has been excellent. It is actually better than the original remote, and the fact that it is free makes it even better. I have been very happy with it and highly recommend it.

This app is great…

So convenient to use my desktop iMac to control my TCL Roku TV. In fact, it’s better than the remote!

Dog

My dog keep eating Roku remote eat 6 remote. Now I get you app work grate no more dog eat !,

Clean interface, no lag.

Exactly what it advertises, quick install and use. Clean UI w/ no ads. Perfect.

Actual good app

Refreshing to see an actual free app, and not a subscription based remote

Exceeded expectations

Honestly a little scary how well this works. Right out the box. 10/10 no notes

headphone mode not working when playing Xbox on Roku TV (using airpods pro 3)

can we fix

Works great

Truthfully I didn’t expect this app to work on my MacBook but it works perfectly. I am very pleased. It is faster than the real Roku app and doesn’t have any connection issues.

Couldn't ask for more for less...

Still has a refinement here or there that could be added but overall an absolute gem of a program – completely free. Big kudos to the developer for this gift.

It does not work

It connects to my tv’s but it does nothing when I press any buttons, I restarted my Mac and the app 4 times and still nothing, it has access to the local network but still nothing

FREE

EDIT: omg Shortcuts support, volume rocker support, zero latency, ultra highly reliable… been a great couple months with Roam, THANK YOU DEV ||| Thank you—had to scroll far to find you, The Real One
