Yes, the Roku Express 4K+ accepts IR commends even though it comes with wifi remote. And your Harmony only emits IR commands you just have to find a Roku code in the data base.

    Thanks so much! My only concern is that Express 4K+ does not have headphone jack, but ULTRA does. Does ULTRA connect with Harmony universal remotes also?

      Yes the Ultra accepts IR commands as well. Only Roku sticks like the 3810 Stick+ doesn't accept IR commands and so won't work with your harmony.

        Thanks TivoB! I just read about the 4K+ uses smartphone to listen to TV, so I don't have to upgrade to the Ultra to have the aux jack in the remote. I might be able to re-pair the one I have now to work with 4K+ also. So, I pre-ordered the Express 4K+. I can't wait! we will finally be down to one remote and an occasional roku remote or phone to listen using headphones.
