User Reviews

Most reviews condemn Roku Remote & Cast for iOS as unstable and overpriced. The app often fails to connect or cast, is laggy, and distracts users with constant upgrade prompts and ads. Many feel the price is too high for limited functionality, with some reports of no instructions or broken support. A few users find it somewhat usable as a backup remote when the actual Roku remote is missing, but reliability and privacy concerns dominate the overall sentiment.

Pros

Convenience of using an iPhone as a Roku remote when the physical remote is lost
Some basic remote functionality is possible to use under certain conditions

Cons

Very expensive premium pricing; many reviews mention paying $11–$12 and requiring upgrade to use
Frequent failures to work or connect; app is laggy, doesnt cast, or stops functioning
Aggressive paywalls and upgrade popups interrupt usage (often full-screen ads)
Connectivity issues: cannot connect to TV/Roku or initial setup fails
Privacy concerns and potential screen recording/privacy implications
