Ratings and reviews

The best Roku remote app there is. For people having issues, it's Roku's fault. Roku recently pushed an update to TVs that broke all remote control apps. To fix it, on your TV go to Settings → System→ Advanced System Settings → Control by mobile apps and select "Enabled" Just really hate the new splash screen and having to wait on it to get out of the way, every time I launch the app. There should be an option in the settings to disable the annoying splash screen.

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.

Everytime I click the down button, it goes down and keeps going down and I cant stop it. Few times, I click a button and it continuously says "cant connect " It's a hassle and I cant deal with it. Thank god I just ordered a replacement remote but until then I downloaded the Roku app and that works amazing! Alot of work needs to be done with this app.
