Remote with lighted controls
Does RoKu have a remote that light up allowing you to see the controls when watching TV in a dark room?

Hi Sorento0214
Thanks for the post.
We don't have that kind of remote at the moment, but thanks for the suggestion. Feel free to keep an eye on our blog at https://www.roku.com/blog for any future announcements or updates.
Thank you for choosing Roku and have a great day!
All the best,

This is the one thing that I completely dislike about my Roku. I've looked for a backlit remote control but cannot find one. It's so surprising that this isn't included in any remote. I mean, it's basic tech & something that's been around for a long time. I think customers would eagerly buy these if you'd bring your remotes up to date.
100% agree. This is not an unreasonable Request.
Hey Roku! A backlit remote is long overdue. Amazon Fire Cube now offers one and if I wasn’t a long time dedicated Roku user I would make the switch just for that feature alone. Please come out with one ASAP!
Completely agree!! It's been years. Unsure why they can't do this.
I agree. We watch tv in the dark a lot and it’s a pain to use a flashlight or turn a lamp on. Please offer back lit remotes comparable with Roku express 4k
Just adding to this FOUR page thread. It is ridiculous that Roku won’t make a backlit remote. Looking to switch unless they can offer one soon. It stinks because we recently set up 4 locations and it will be a total pain. The Roku express remote feels cheap without this BASIC feature.
It’s been driving me crazy. I ended up cutting a tiny square brightly colored piece of a post it note on the play button and feeling my way around using that as a base. Pretty sad.
Seems aftermarket Roku covers are glow in the dark. ..
💯agree! I really want a Roku remote that has backlighting, with the voice search option, as well as the ability to make the 4 streaming service buttons changeable, to put in your top 4 used streaming services! For me it would be Hulu, Amazon Prime, Peacock and Disney Plus. Even better? Make it 6 or 8 buttons! Then I can also add Netflix and Paramount Plus! Also, including the stickers to be able to put on the buttons would be amazing too! Preferably with like 4 of each sticker in case you wear one out. This is 2023 Roku! GET WITH THE TIMES!! Any one else that would like to see this all in a remote from Roku??
