Hi @Unionman59,
Welcome, and thank you for posting here at the Roku Community!

The Roku app functions only when paired with the Roku device on the same network; thus, you must ensure they're not on the same network to turn off pairing. Also, you can try to uninstall the app to clear the cache on your mobile phone; this will disable your Roku app remote feature from accessing your device.
