Ratings and reviews

OG: dislike subscriptions. NEW: Unfortunately the subscription on this app allows you to quick launch an app... and that's it. No specific YT or Netflix screens. I know this may be a Roku restriction but to charge a subscription for the feature is rather unfortunate. Subscriptions for one use apps like this are pretty stupid IMHO. The app works well but it should 1000% be a one-time purchase. Not enough value for a subscription.

Great until it wasn't, which was less than 24, hours after installing it. It impressed me at first. It needed no 'pairing' like most remotes do. Installed it and it worked perfectly. But this morning it said it couldn't connect to my Roku. I kept changing angles nothing helped. I decided to clear it's cache but it doesn't have a cache?. So I'm going to UNINSTALL it. Try another Roku remote app,till I can buy a new Roku.

This is one of those apps I should have tried before I buyed. While the concept is excellent, the app itself isn't. It controlled my Roku for 5 minutes then decided for whatever reason that it wouldn't. I got nothing but a constant pop-up that it wouldn't connect to my Roku. About 10% of the time it controls the volume and the rest it just gives that pop-up. Buying this app at this point is a mistake but hopefully it will improve in the future.
