I just set up HomeKit on my Roku TV and am trying to use Siri to control my tv but Siri keeps saying “ I can’t find any TVs nearby

Hi @ShyannT,

Thank you for your first post here in the Roku Community!

We understand you're having a problem with the Roku TV. We're happy to help.

If you are using the Home app or a Siri voice command with your Roku player, Roku Streambar, Roku Streambar Pro, or Roku Smart Soundbar and your TV will not power on or off, you need to make sure your TV supports HDMI-CEC (or just CEC) and the feature is enabled. CEC helps simplify how you use your entertainment system allowing commands to be shared between devices over the same HDMI connection you use for audio and video. Visit the online documentation for your TV, or contact the manufacturer to determine if your TV supports the feature and how you can enable CEC.

In addition to having CEC enabled on your TV, you also need to enable "1-touch play" on your Roku device using the steps below.

1. Press the Home button on your Roku remote.
2. Scroll and select Settings.
3. Select System.
4. Select Control Other Devices.
5. Highlight 1-touch play and check the box.

Please try doing this and see if it helps with what you're experiencing.

All the best,
John
