Request for Roku Box with Mouse Support

Hi there,

I just wanted to request that Mouse support be added to Roku devices. It would be preferred if possible that the USB port also have support for a wireless mouse to click on letters when using virtual keyboard for typing into search, etc. instead of using the remote. It would be much quicker that way instead of using the directional arrow keys on the remote. 

Thanks in advance.

      While you wait, you might want to check out Roku’s phone apps, since many people are used to typing on a phone. (BTW I just edited this post - just to check that it works - you might have an issue with a specific browser.)
