Anyone have any luck with New Voice Remote pro and TCL roku tvs. After roku support asking me to contact TCl and TCL telling me this remote is not compatible with either of my 2 week old tvs.Just want to make sure this is accurate before I pay half the price of remote to return to Roku. Have model 32S327 and 50S535 TV's. Thanks in advance.

They are compatible, all roku tv's are. I have the voice pro remotes working on Tcl 43" Roku tv, a Insignia 55", and Hisense 40" roku tv's. It has to paired, it won't work straight out of the box.

After 2nd call to TCL an update 10.0 came through and I was able to program to the 50 in tv. Still no update for 32 in tv has update 9.4 and will not program remote. Thanks for the help

10.0.0. has nothing to do with it roku tv's have been able to work with wifi remotes for many years through all kinds of software editions. 

I tested the new pro remotes on all my roku models which include 3920 premiere, 3921 premiere+ and many others each still at 9.4. and it worked fine. Even the headphone jack which premiere 3920 never worked with before.

Thank you for your reply. I'm just stating what worked for my 50in tv and the advise  I received from both roku and TCL. It didn't program with the 9.4.4 and after losing the 10. it did. Maybe this can help someone with the same issue.

Thanks, Texan. I recently got the 50S535 and wanted to upgrade from the included IR remote, but also wanted to be sure the new Voice Remote Pro would be compatible. My RC80 remote from a Streaming Stick+ (3600X) takes forever to pair with the new TV, and then it unpairs in less than an hour. Glad to hear the VRP is working for you now.
