The first thing you need to do is download the Roku app on your mobile device. The app is available for both Android and iOS devices, and you can download it from the Google Play Store or the App Store.

Step 2: Connect your mobile device to the same Wi-Fi network as your Roku

Once you have installed the Roku app on your mobile device, make sure that your mobile device and your Roku device are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. If they’re not, you won’t be able to sync your Roku remote.

Step 3: Launch the Roku App and Select Your Roku Device

Open the Roku app on your mobile device and select your Roku device from the list of available devices. If your Roku device is not listed, make sure that your mobile device and your Roku are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Step 4: Tap on the Remote Icon

Once you have selected your Roku device, you will see a remote icon at the bottom of the screen. Tap on it to launch the Roku remote.

Step 5: Use the Virtual Remote to Control Your Roku Device

You will now see a virtual remote on your mobile device. Use it to control your Roku device just like you would with your physical remote. You can use the arrow keys to navigate, the select button to select, and the back button to go back.

Step 6: Pair your Remote with your Roku Device

If you want to use your physical remote instead of the virtual one, you can pair it with your Roku device using the Roku app. Go to the settings menu in the app and select “Remote.” From there, select “Pair a new remote” and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the pairing process.

 

Conclusion

In conclusion, syncing your Roku remote without using the pairing button is a simple and easy process with the Roku app. By following these steps, you can control your Roku device using the virtual remote on your mobile device, or pair your physical remote with your Roku using the app. Don’t let a lost or broken remote hold you back from enjoying your Roku device!
