slayyy

i love this app so much it work so well I appreciate whoever make this app. You guys should make more apps like this. And I also think it’s very good because like if you want well what I do if I wanna prank my brother or my mom or my dad, I would take like I would take the thing because I can like put everybody’s thing like the TV account on my phone and stuff, and you can actually go on TV or turn the TV on the app. It doesn’t really matter which one, but you can like go on the account you can turn on the TV like I said already it doesn’t really matter. You can turn on the TV like that or either one is just you I think you have to just have a Roku TV but you guys I recommend that you guys get this game or I recommend that you guys whoever wants to look at my review I will recommend you guys get this app please, God bless whoever made this app i love it so so sooooo much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I remember I woke up. I recommend my mom and dad actually put it on my phone one day and I was actually starting to use it and it was actually starting to work. I didn’t really trust that but because it’s just something that I do so I’m sorry that I didn’t trust at first, but I just did now and I’m actually gonna use it for my sister right now. She loves the app she uses. She knows how to use it herself. I use it a lot thank you so much.

Best Handy App... Here’s why (Read All)

Honestly, I love this app because it’s greatly convenient!!! Probably one of THE MOST convenient and simple apps for free. Like another reviewer said instead of searching for the remote as long as you have your phone (which is most likely all the time) you’re good. As a wheelchair bound disabled person, some people in my home can leave the remote in places I can’t really reach so that’s were this app come in handy, and really in this household the remote generally has the tendency to disappear. So if you have a remote that has hidden legs and likes to go into hiding then the app is great. On a funny and more truthful note, I originally got the app because my sister and I weren’t getting along at the time and she knows every morning I use the tv. For some reason the next morning I couldn’t find the remote and had a gut feeling she hid it on purpose so that I had no choice but to talk and ask her where it was (in which she probably still wouldn’t have helped to be petty). To avoid needing her help, I downloaded the app and she looked confused and shocked like “😳”. I felt like victory with my phone remote 😎😂. I definitely take back what I said about people who used this app were being lazy but it comes in handy for more than not wanting to get up!!!

Good features, but frequently disconnects from devices and becomes non-responsive

I would have given this app a far better review — it has many very useful features for an app like this — but the one I use the most, "headphone mode", very frequently does not work correctly. It will more often than mot work for an entire move/episode of a show, but whenever the program ends, it will almost invariably stop working. Switching back to the Roku app will yield only a completely non-responsive remote screen. All other components of the app will be nonfunctional in this state, too. Force-quitting the app and restarting it will *sometimes* fix the issue; more often than not, though, it won't, because the app says it can't find the device it was literally just connected to.

This leaves the TV/streaming stick without audio as well, and trying to quit whatever app I am using with the physical Roku remote will result in a black screen, and apparently freezing the system. As Roku is a closed platform, debugging/diagnostic tools are not available, so this necessitates a TV/stick reboot. Obviously, this is not desirable behavior.

In fact, it is annoying enough that I actually wrote an app review: as a beta tester for many, many products, I usually don't, because I can privately submit a bug report. Unfortunately, this is not so with Roku; I applied to their beta program eons ago with no response, leaving me no choice but to make this public.
