THIS IS NOT A REAL APP . It's an app ad. After a FIVE MINUTE trial, you have to WAIT FIVE SECONDS FOR EVERY SINGLE BUTTON PRESS. Unless, of course, you are willing to shell out money. Entirely dishonest. And then to top it all off, you have to have a companion app on the phone. The watch is on the wifi, why would it need a phone connection? #Uninstall

It took a few moments to get my Roku Streaming Stick+ and this app to talk to each other, but then it all came together like gravy! I've only ever purchased 5 items on the Play Store in 7 years, and this is one of them. No more hunting for my physical remote while I'm wearing my watch!!

The app was easy to download, but not sure if it's my phone or an update is needed, but the watch app always makes me grab the phone to use it. I mean, what's the point of a watch app, if you need the phone to use it all the time. The watch has LTE, and connected to wifi.

I saw a Roku watch app advertised for the Apple Watch today and I thought, hey, I wonder if there's one for Android Watches...? Yup! I wonder why I didn't think to look out for this before... This app works perfectly with my 2019 TCL 75-inch Roku TV! Setup in less than 30 seconds! ****Please add Roku TV app custom shortcuts options for Netflix, Prime, Hulu, Vudu, Disney+, etc***

No real thought put into UX, just a cash grab. "5 minute trial" then pauses what you're watching after it (I assume to try to strong arm you into upgrading). No volume controls which is arguably most important.

won't work with watch at all. just keep getting the error message "WATCH NOT FOUND" and I've paid for the premium version. I have the 42mm Samsung smartwatch.

About this app

Remote Wear lets you control your Roku from your smartwatch! It connects your Roku and smartwatch through your mobile device. It consists of two parts - the phone app and the smartwatch app. In the phone app you can select which Roku device you want to control. You can control your Roku from both apps. You don't need a smartwatch to use the phone app.

Quick Start:
* Install the latest version of Android Wear from Google Play
* This app requires Android Wear version 1.1.1.1889093 or above to work
* Install Remote Wear app in your phone
* It will automatically install the remote app in the paired smartwatches
* Give it a few minutes for the smartwatch to install the remote app
* You can verify the remote app in the smartwatch's Start menu
