Roku

Roku added Windows phone support so I bought Roku. You support my platform, I support your company. When will other businesses learn that the "small number" of Windows phone users are generally very affluent tech savvy consumers with disposable funds to purchase products that make their life easier - dumbfounding that companies are not clamoring to get more apps to Windows phone given the demographics of the windows phone users.

I was considering replacing my AppleTV. Well, you guys released this awesome app which pushed me over the edge to grab a Roku3 for my birthday. I'm thoroughly enjoying both. Thanks guys!

Soooo much better than the Rokumotu app I'd been using. Remembers my Roku instead of asking for it every time and starts out on the remote instead of the channels list. Works perfectly and has a nice UI. For those having problems, make sure your phone is connected to the same WiFi as your Roku as that's necessary for them to communicate properly.

Awesome app glad to see some love coming to windows phone from major vendors.

Finds all Roku devices on my network as it should. Just like the hardware, this app just works. It does not let you play your Roku channels on your phone/tablet/PC it is strictly a remote control. The advantage is the ability to use the keyboard or microphone on your device for searches and entering account information on premium channels instead of the simple remote that comes with the Roku. Well done.

The apps appearance has been updated for Windows 10 but they broke it in the process. Before, the 2 separate windows didn't display well but the remote worked. Now the single window looks slick BUT THE REMOTE DOESN'T WORK! Connections are intermittent and slow between the app and the stick. Support people want to screw with my network. NO! Everything worked until this update to YOUR software. I am shopping elsewhere.

I installed the Roku app on my Win10 PC a year ago, and it just keeps getting better. I love the display, which is true to both Roku and the newer Windows style. If anything, navigating the channel store is slicker than going through the website, and it's good to have the Play on Roku feature on my PC, since that's where all my purchased music lives. They've also put some extra polish on the UI since the Win10 launch. When I made the big Windows upgrade, the app's remote control panel loaded on my system as its own window as big as the main window instead of the slide-out drawer in the thumbnails. The current verion has the remote and your channels in one window, which is an excellent improvement. It looks as good as it works. Overall, it's very pleasing. The app actually expands what my Roku can do.

Let me preface by stating that we have five Roku devices running in our home. The app displayed all of them and let me pick when I installed it so that was good, it is capable of finding them. For some reason once I've picked one Roku, that is all I get to use it on. There is no way to switch to another Roku that I can find. Uninstalling the app and picking a new player after a reinstall seems to work, but that is more hassle than should be required. The Roku remote on my android devices lets me switch between Roku players and it would be wonderful to be able to do that from here as well. I would like to be able to rate this app higher because it works to control one Roku well enough, but until I can switch to another Roku from inside the app I will not rate it any higher.
