Best Roku app out there! I tried one that played an ad after each button was pressed (within a very short lapse), and the "official" Roku remote app disconnected from my Roku device everytime I left the app (including when my phone would go to "sleep" mode after you leave it for a while). I will say though, this was the first app I tried and not having the keyboard is what made me try the other apps, but I came back, full circle, only to be in LOVE with this app!

Very nice Roku remote app. Still, after a couple of years of complaining, it still doesn't save device custom names. Tap the pencil edit icon, change name to Living Room, save. Come back later and it's changed right back to the device's default name. Not really an issue if you only have one device. I have three devices and it's hard to remember the default names of them to tell which is which. Also, the developer does not answer emails. I've sent several.

Had it only a few days. So far, really useful. I hope I can trust it to continue to work! The touchpad went blank one day and I had to reinstall-- now OK except I still have to use my real remote to turn one of my Roku TVs on/off. Works fine on the other one. Not sure what is meant by "sound effects" so I leave them on. Can't find anywhere in the app to get explanations-- "Help" is not helpful for getting more specific info about this or other features.
