I am on vacation and brought my Roku stick, but forgot the remote. Is there anyway that I can use the device? I am trying to connect my phone to it, but that is not working.

Sorry, but no. The only way to get it connected to a new network is with a genuine Roku remote. There's no way to use any kind of remote app until it's connected to Wi-Fi. If you have control of the router's Wi-Fi settings, which is unlikely, you could set the Wi-Fi up to match what the stick is already configured for.

If you have a local walmart or best buy you can purchase wifi voice remote there separately. Its $10 more at best buy.
