I hope that solves your issue but I doubt it will last long. I have had this battery pop up problem on several different Roku remotes and models over the years. So just ditching your current Roku remote and then getting a brand new one isn't a permanent solution.
I believe this is a defect in either the hardware design in the remotes, or bad software design which is not meshing well with the remote hardware and is causing the malfunctioning pop up. That is my opinion on what this issue is likely caused by.
I think these badly designed remotes are constantly losing Wi-Fi connection while not in use and when the remote automatically reconnects while you are watching a video the pop up appears. Because somebody at Roku programmed the software to display the pop up any time the remote reestablishes the connection, which was very stupid. So this isn't just an issue of a malfunctioning pop up but a malfunctioning remote that can't stay connected properly depending on your Wi-Fi.
Roku needs to fix this on their end. If the Roku engineers/programmers (the ones responsible for creating these pop ups and inserting them in the first place) just got rid of the pop ups completely from the software that would solve this issue forever. Because let's face it, nobody needs a pop up on their TV screen to let them know what the battery level is.
Anyone can go into the Settings on the Home Screen and navigate over to the Remote Settings section and check the battery level anytime they want, you don't need Roku popping it up randomly when you don't want to see it.
Or, like people have been doing for decades before Wi-Fi devices were invented, you can just change your batteries or charge your remote when you notice that pressing buttons no longer activates the functions on your remote! Then you know your battery is dying and you can take the appropriate action!
The pop up isn't just an annoyance because it's malfunctioning, but it's completely annoying because it's unnecessary. Also the "Hands Free Voice" pop up on the Voice Remote Pros is another pops up that sometimes appears when you don't want it to, that has to go as well.
Roku better doing something about this once and for all because this has clearly gone on way too long. @RokuCarly assures us this is being taken care of as we speak, let's see if that is the case and if so how long it takes.
