Changing my review to say the app works much better now. Went from not working at all to working consistently. only took them a long while lol. Im very thankful for it (when it's working properly) because evidently my household can keep track of a single remote. I can't even find the remote I just bought. It's still in the box🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️. So I, and other family members can use the app as a remote when needed! Thank you roku😘

The Roku app is good and helpful. Ever since I've purchased a Roku TV, it's been very handy (with the addition that I can also use it as a remote). I also have the option to watch movies or shows on my phone instead of the TV, which I'd say is very nice to have as a feature. Although there is an issue with it. The last time I used it it didn't work properly and gave me a black screen no matter how many times I tried again. That's why I give it four stars.

If I were to give this app a letter grade, it would be a C-. The app hasn't really been updated in any meaningful way for a long time, You can't shut off specific notifications, and if you're using remote listening, any sound that plays on your phone will unpause whatever is paused on your TV; similarly, using the microphone (speech to text, for example), It will do the same thing. If I pause a video, walk away, get a text message, and come back, the video will have been playing for however long
