When trying to use my roku app, it shows my tv is on the network, but won't connect. I have tried manual connect but says the IP doesn't exist. I have reinstalled the app, i have done resets on the app and tv. Yes, I have the actual remote.
THIS WORKED FOR ME AFTER ISSUES THE PAST FEW WEEKS…
Step 1 Hard restart of my iPhone.
Step 2 Deleted the Roku App
Strp 3 Reinstalled the app, went to devices. I think I clicked on search for devices. My RokuTV came up and worked right away.
Hi @Lesliewell,
Thanks for your first post in the Roku Community!
We noticed in your post that you are having trouble connecting your Roku mobile app to your Roku TV. We are more than happy to help.
Let's see if this will work for you. Please follow the step-by-step process below to connect your Roku mobile app manually to your Roku TV.
After your Roku device powers back on, make sure it is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network and check if both devices are connected to the same network. From the Home screen on your Roku device, go to Settings > Network > About to see the name of the network your Roku device is connected to and compare it to the network your mobile device is connected to. If your phone or tablet is connected to a different network, it will not be able to control your Roku device.
We recommend you try these troubleshooting steps and let us know if the issue persists.
Regards,
Riamie
Greetings from the Roku Community, @scoon93!
We appreciate you for letting us know about the issues you are currently experiencing with the Roku mobile app, and we'd be happy to find you the best resolution possible.
In this case, we suggest resetting your network connection by navigating to your Home screen. Scroll up or down to select Settings > Advance system settings > Network connection reset > Reset connection. After doing so, reboot your Roku player by selecting Settings > System > Power (skip if unavailable) > System restart. Also, reboot your modem/router and reconnect your Roku player to your network connection again.
If the issue persists, we also recommend deleting the Roku mobile app and re-installing it again to see if this will make any difference.
Let us know how it goes, and we'll continue assisting you from there.
Best regards,

This didn’t work.
It didn't work for me either. I have started, stopped, restarted, disconnected, reconnected, turned off and on, uninstalled and reinstalled. I even changed internet providers and it STILL won't connect. I've been using this app with my roku devices for 10 years. It won't work with any of my four rokus as of a week or two ago.
It's not ME. It's YOU. Please fix this. I can't afford to buy all new tvs.

This is happening to me as well! Just started randomly and I have not changed anything! Using a Westinghouse Roku tv. There are no codes, the tv doesn’t pop up on airplay on the iPhone either. It’s like the tv isn’t give the signal to the phone that it’s on or nearby. Absolutely no changes to my set up. Cogeco is my provider. Thanks
Can’t believe this is a live issue! Thought I was going crazy, def please fix!! Exact same issues as above and same scenarios of trying every single fix and no changes/errors or pop ups.
This is affecting me too. Please address this asap.
Physically restarting my phone got it working. Don't know why it was necessary.
