Honestly, I lose the Roku remote more often than I care to admit. The dog probably hides it. Anyway, I was looking for something to save me from tearing the couch apart every other day. I tried a few different apps, and 'Remote Control for Roku TV' by SoulApps Studio was the one that stuck. It took me a few days to figure out all the features, I'm not gonna lie, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty useful. My students showed me a trick for quickly connecting it – something about making sure both the phone and Roku are on the same Wi-Fi network. Why do they hide the settings button there, though? Anyway, it's like having a teaching assistant in your pocket, but for your TV. It even has a keyboard for searching, which is way easier than using the on-screen one with the regular remote.
Key Features
Turns your phone into a Roku remote.
Has a keyboard for easier searching (thank goodness!).
Works even when you've misplaced the physical remote (a lifesaver!).
"Looked though probably 25 different apps for one that would work with my Roku TV this the only one I found that isn't trash this one works better than my actual remote thank you for creating this app"
