Rokie - télécommande pour Roku 4+

I love this app, it’s so smooth (I actually can’t recall it ever skipping or glitching or anything like that) and convenient... I paid for no ads and I have 0 regrets since doing so. However, I think it would be fantastic to have the ability to rename the different Roku devices connected to the same WiFi network as my phone... For instance, there are 3 different Roku Expresses at my home and it’s a mildly inconvenient guessing game until I land on the Express I’m looking for - sort of just trial and error. I’ve tried searching this app for such a feature but haven’t been able to locate it anywhere, so if there’s one thing I could improve about Rokie, I’d implement an option to rename the different devices connected to the WiFi network that one is aiming to connect to from his/her phone

I have an Apple TV as well, and the app for that is way better, despite being one screen. No ads, unlike this, and a message pops up on my phone when I need to type for search. Both apps are visually pleasing, and despite not liking this app, I do appreciate the channel screen and being able to go straight to another channel while being in another app. I wish the search function was as efficient as the Apple TV remote app, but I imagine it’s easier for apple since everybody with that app has an iPhone (I think).

This app works fine enough if you lose your remote, but there is NO reason to use it otherwise. I use my apple remote app all the time, despite still having my remote handy. The ads on this app are ridiculous. I can barely do anything before one pops up, lasting 30 seconds to a a minute. If you want to use your phone as a remote because you think it’ll be faster, it won’t be. And honestly, if you lost your remote, just buy a new one.

I get that you can pay $2 to get rid of the ads, but this shouldn’t be a problem in the first place. I already see ads on my Roku screen and I know they profit off of their products, so why do they feel the need to have ads in a remote app? It’s ludicrous!

I have had a few Roku devices over the last few years .
Originally I found the products reliable and user friendly and when I had issues customer service was a phone call and a five minute fix.
Now days it seems things have changed, for example: if you have need for technical support, you will not find a phone number for tech-support, in fact, you will end up on the website with a technical chat advisor and before they connect you with someone that can”help” you with your technical issues you will have to provide payment information. I believe that Roku has gotten a bit greedy and buyers need to be where purchasing their television sets might limit your freedom of choice when it comes to streaming outside of your Roku subscription, which the way things are going, they’re almost pressuring you to have to use your new TV. The price for their large flat screens TV is awesome, but the catch is if you have an issue, you’re going to have to pay in order to figure it out, unless you happen to be savvy enough on your own
