About
Lost the remote? Snappy turns your iPhone into a fast, simple remote for your Roku TV.
FINDS YOUR TV IN SECONDS
Open Snappy on the same Wi‑Fi as your TV. It finds your Roku TV by itself and opens straight onto the remote. No account, no sign-in.
EVERY REMOTE BUTTON IS FREE
D-pad and OK, back, home, options, play/pause, rewind, fast-forward, volume, mute, power, input and channel up/down. Free, with no ads.
MADE TO FEEL INSTANT
A press is sent the moment your finger touches the key. Power waits until you lift your finger, so a stray touch can't turn the TV off. Snappy shows how many milliseconds your TV took to answer. If a press doesn't land, the key flashes so you know.
FIXES THE SETTING THAT BLOCKS PHONE REMOTES
Many Roku TVs now ship with "Control by mobile apps" set to Limited, which stops phone remotes from working. Snappy spots it and shows you exactly where to change it.
KEEPS WORKING
Router restarted? Snappy finds your TV again by itself. Locked your phone or switched apps? It reconnects as soon as you're back.
PREMIUM: PAY ONCE, KEEP IT
• Your remote on Apple Watch: turn the Digital Crown for volume, and say what to type in the TV's search
• Widgets and Control Center buttons, right on the Lock Screen
• Ask Siri: “Press pause on the TV with Snappy” or “Turn the TV down with Snappy”
• Your own row of buttons for your favorite apps and inputs
• Search by voice, or type with your phone keyboard (try it 3 times first)
• Open your TV apps in one tap
• Swipe pad instead of arrows
• Control all the Roku TVs in your home
One payment, no subscription. Family Sharing included.
WORKS WITH
• Roku TVs from TCL, Hisense, onn, Insignia, Westinghouse, Sharp, Philips, Element, RCA, JVC, Hitachi and more.
• Roku streaming players and sticks work too; use the TV's own remote for volume and power on those.
Your iPhone and TV must be on the same Wi‑Fi. Snappy controls Roku devices only.
On iPhone Duo? Open it and Snappy spreads across both halves: the arrows and OK on one side, everything else on the other. Fold it shut and it's back to the one-page remote.
Left-handed? One switch mirrors the remote. Snappy collects no data.
