Remotes & Accessories

The remote for my Roku quit working.  The remote I have is a RC12.  I've tried all the internet fixes (batteries, repairing, shutting down everything and restarting, etc.) but it just doen't work.  Right now I'm using my IPhone as a remote but I'd rather just buy a new remote.  I understand the RC12 is RF and most of the available replacements seem to be IR.  Can someone recommend a good source for a replacement that isn't shipped from China?

I believe the Voice Remote #2 on this page is compatible with your roku

ROKU solved my problem by providing a new 3600X with a new remote.  All is well.  Thanks ROKU!

Thanks for the note. We don't currently offer a replacement remote for that model of Roku Streaming Stick. You might check out the free Roku mobile app as an alternate option. It has remote control ability built right in. See more here: https://support.roku.com/article/115002681087-how-do-i-control-my-roku-streaming-device-using-the-ro...

I'm surprised that the Roku 3600 remote doesn't work with the Roku 3500. Same technology, no?

[RokuTannerD]

The current replacement remote (AL-2) available for model 3600 is not officially supported for use with the model 3500. 

Put simply, the model 3600 is entirely different, newer hardware than the former model. 


Thanks,
