Broken widget

The widget for the app exists but the buttons are blank and they do not work.

Not even working

Connected to my Roku- Have the widget and all but it doesn’t work at all. I’m connected but nothing is working I’m just slamming buttons and getting zero results. Not even working on the 3 other household Roku’s.
Waste of time.
