Remote for Roku: TV Remote Review

Remote for Roku: TV Remote is a handy mobile app designed to transform your phone into a full-featured remote control for Roku TVs and streaming devices. By connecting over WiFi, you can easily manage your Roku device without the need for the physical remote. Whether you want to power on/off your TV, adjust volume, browse through channels, or enter text via a virtual keyboard, this app mimics the capabilities of an original Roku remote seamlessly.

This app supports a wide range of Roku streaming devices such as Roku Express, Streaming Stick, Premiere, Ultra, and many popular Roku TV brands including TCL, Hisense, Philips, and more. Setup is simple—just ensure your phone is on the same WiFi network as your Roku and connect. The intuitive touchpad lets you swipe and scroll through the Roku interface effortlessly. Additional features such as channel shortcuts, screen mirroring, and casting local media to your TV add great versatility to the user experience.

While the app offers a convenient alternative to physical remotes, some users have noted that the free version comes with frequent and sometimes intrusive ads, which can impact usability. However, ads can be removed via in-app purchases, and the developer is responsive to feedback aiming to improve ad frequency and overall service. The app continues to evolve with recent updates enhancing user experience and adding functionality like casting anytime.

Overall, Remote for Roku: TV Remote is an excellent tool for Roku users who crave convenience and additional features not always found on traditional remotes. It’s particularly useful if your original remote is lost or not functioning. Despite some drawbacks related to advertisements, it remains a well-designed and powerful companion app for managing your Roku devices from your smartphone.
