Control Roku TVs from your Android device with Roke
Roke is a free Android application that turns your phone into a remote for Roku-powered TVs.

Why use Roke
Roke offers a straightforward substitute for a misplaced or broken Roku remote. Its combination of touch controls, voice recognition, and keyboard input speeds up searches and navigation, while automatic device detection removes much of the setup friction. Although Roke is developed independently and isn’t an official Roku product, it provides a dependable way to manage your TV from your smartphone.
