My right button doesn't respond now.  It goes to the first app and won't move to the right.  I just charged my rechargeable remote yesterday and today it's already down to 23 Percent.  Honestly I think the remotes that used batteries lasted a lot longer.  I read that the chargeable remotes stayed charged for 2 months.  I bought 2 ultra rokus this Christmas and I'm very disappointed in the remotes.  Now my main tv remote won't go nowhere but to the first app and it opens.  Each ultra was almost $100 so I haven't even had for three months and not working already but yet when I had the battery remote it did not use batteries and I had probably for several years no problems.  I regret spending $200 on these new chargeable battery remotes, as far as I'm concerned junk.  Not happy
