rokRemote is a Roku Mac app that gives your Macs desktop the same Roku remote control that your mobile devices have. There are Roku remotes for iPhone and iPad as well as other mobile devices that get the most from the Roku experience.

Now rokRemote captures that same functionality in a nice simple interface. rokRemote is a menu bar app that is designed to function much like an iPhone app. No clunky full window app to get in your way.

The interface provides a comfortable work feel to a space efficient window. Best of all it remains out of your way.

The remote, channels and keyboard screens help make navigating the Roku easy. Roku auto detection as well as manual entry of Roku devices is supported. See the zmplicitycode website for more details.

IT DOESNT WORK

Good desktop compliment for Roku

App does what is says. Easy to setup. Found my Roku box quickly. Stays out of the way in the menu bar. The keyboard makes searching on the roku nice. Buttons could be bigger.

Works okay w/ manual setup

It worked okay once I manually set the IP address. It did not automatically detect my Roku XS box over Wi-Fi (I just hope the address doesnt change once the IP lease expires). Beyond this limitation, I really like the neatness of the interface and how I can hide it into the title bar until I need it. Its also very responsive.

Extreme Roku User

I am an extreme roku user, I have been searching for something to control my Roku box from my MAC and not have to use my iPhone anymore. This app does exactly what it says it does and the developer is quick to respond and loves to hear suggestions and your experience with the software, this purchase is one you will not regret! The other user who says it does not work simply does not know what he is talking about. I got this up and running in under 30 seconds - no issues and was controlling my Roku from my Menu Bar. Which is one feature I love as it is always there and I can click it when I need it. Perfect!

Doesn

Doesnt find Roku box, doesnt give any information about why that might be the case.

Pure Amazing

I love this use this for my bedroom and living room rokus thanks developers. *update doesnt seem to work anymore on either of my rokus.

Wont open on 10.7 since 1.1 update

The "support" site has no contact information for actual support. I paid for this app and it used to work great, but now since the 1.1 upgrade it wont even start. Problem. Hopefully the creator will see this review and fix the problem. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling - no effect. Theres no safe mode option, so I cannot diagnose any issues. Thanks.
