Ratings and reviews

When is this going to be fixed!?!? it's been months and months. I constantly have to force stop and restart it just to control my TV. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and clearing the cache. Nothing helps. And it's not just my phone. The app is just as bad on my wife and children's phones. I'm about to throw away my Roku TV for a Google streaming box. this is ridiculous.

EDIT: the app doesn't even work on headphone mode if you open another app anymore after the new update this is pathetic. the app is great, except the primary use i have for it- connecting my hearing aids to the app and therefore my TV through the headphone section of the app- doesn't work for more than a few minutes most of the time before the sound cuts out and it disconnects them for no reason. it's EXTREMELY aggravating.

My dog broke my TV remote on accident so I looked for a remote app for my Roku TV. To be fair, the remotes aren't the best quality but it gets knocked on floor a lot so c'est la vie 🤷. This app works so effortlessly and it's so easy to use and connect with. I'm genuinely impressed with the amount of effort it took to set up. Literally less than a minute. Way to go Roku and it's developers 🥳🥳🥳
