Cant get URL anymore to sideload apps using ROKU app

Trying to get the device URL so I can sideload an app. however with the last update, pressing UP twice after pressing HOME highlights the SEARCH option. So after pressing RIGHT, the keyboard pops up on my phone app, making me unable to press LEFT. Am I stuck buying an actual remote now if I want to enter HOME HOME HOME UP UP RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT?

If you're referring to the IP address of the attached device, you can get that by using a desktop or mobile app like Fing.

FREE Windows desktop software for converting Direct Publisher channels to SceneGraph (SDK), for creating BIF (Trick Play) files, Roku (MRSS, JSON) feed files, and FireTV feed files @ GitHub/rrirower.
