Getting Started - Setup & How-to

[Rmsk]

We have recently decided to leave satellite services.  We have a Samsung Smart TV with the Roku app installed.  We also have an older Samsung and using a Roku stick and Roku remote.  Using the Roku remote and stick on the older TV is very intuitive and easy to navigate.  Using the Roku app on the Samsung Smart tv app is not so easy.  Is there a work around for navigating the Roku app and getting to the Roku app home screen while using the Samsung remote?

Hi there, 

Thanks for the note. The Roku mobile app only offers remote control functionality for Roku devices. You'll need to use the Samsung remote in order to control your Samsung TV. I'd recommend contacting Samsung support for any questions or help using their remote on their TVs. You can reach them directly here: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/contact/

Thanks,

Tanner

That's like a pass the buck solution. Roku app on Samsung appears to be severely limited.
