right arrow button failing to work consistently

We have had repeated problems with Roku products. They do not perform well over time. The right arrow button is failing to work consistently. This makes the remote very difficult to use. It needs to be replaced. I am frustrated because I don't believe this problem should be happening.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I used Roku for a few years and all worked great but I bought another one and it’s been a problem. Roku replaced remote but it doesn’t work properly.

Hi Rene, we appreciate you choosing Roku! It sounds like you still may be having some issues with your remote. If this is still a concern, we have a suite of online articles and videos that may help, depending on what issues you’re seeing: https://support.roku.com/category/4403789553943.
Additionally, sometimes a remote may perform better when the Roku player being powered by a wall outlet, instead of the TV’s USB port. If you haven’t already, try plugging your Express 4K+ into the wall using the cable and power adapter provided.
We hope this helps. Happy Streaming! Roku Customer Advocate

Waste of my time
on February 25, 2024
Posted by: Joesgarage876
I bought this in April 2023 and have had enough. The home screen constantly flickers on and off. I've spent hours if not days, researching and trying to fix. Both my tv and soundbar are compatible with its requirements. Now it won't even connect to WiFi. Too bad, I really like the Roku interface. I'm not replacing the TV and soundbar to make it work. I had an older premiere model and it just died too. I'll likely not buy another Roku product.

I may have gotten a defective one I’m not sure. It just freezes up, and CONSTANTLY disconnects from the internet. The screen gets black then turns off. Then I have to restart it and the whole thing repeats

Battery eating Remote
on June 28, 2024
Posted by: Mark57
from Sellersburg, Indiana
I am not sure what is going on with these remotes, but they just continue to eat batteries at an alarming rate. I have paired them several times, as recommended, but it still does not matter. I believe that some of them are just bad design. I have replaced all but 2 of them among the 6 that we use. I am contemplating going to a different streaming device.

Hello there, thanks for sharing. We want to help. Roku remotes are designed to go the distance, but there are a few things that will drain a remote a bit faster, such as a congested Wi-Fi network and viewing lots of short-form content like YouTube. Also, try to power the device via a wall outlet to see if it will make any difference. By the way, we offer the Voice Remote Pro, a rechargeable remote with private listening, voice search, voice commands, two programmable shortcut buttons, and a lost remote finder, and you'll never repurchase a pack of batteries. As an alternative, you can use our Roku Mobile App. More information about it can be found at https://support.roku.com/article/217288467. You can also contact our support team at https://support.roku.com/contactus. We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate
