58" Hisense Roku TV - Remote

I have a 58" Hisense Roku TV. I notice my remote must be the most basic, because often, if I don't have it pointed right at the sensor on the TV, it doesn't work right, sometimes even with new batteries. Is there a Roku Remote I can get that will work with this TV using other tech, (I think RF is what works better). And if so, how hard is it to setup on the Roku TV.

      Thanks. I am looking at buying the Voice Remote Pro. The page tells me it will work with my Roku TV. But something odd, it also tells me it will work with my Roku 2 (an older model, added to my account in 2012). But it is not listing that it will work with my Roku Express + (which is newer than the Roku 2, added to my account in 2018). Why is that? You would think it'd work with a newer Roku before it would work with an older Roku.

        QuiGonJohn, you would think, but there were some early "Express" models that don't support the voice remote.  I don't know the reason.
