Using the Roku app, my volume jumps up randomly.

So I lost my remote, ever since I've been using the Roku remote app on my iPhone. I was on Spotify and went to turn the volume from 7 to 8, and the volume jumped to 49. I tried to turn it down to 8 and it kept jumping back up to 49. I paused the song and put it at 8, un paused it, and it jumped back up to 49. I turned the tv off and back on and it worked for all of 10 minutes. Went to turn the volume from 8 to 9 and it jumped to 34. What do I do? The app doesn't need updated or anything.

Thanks for the response, 

So far it only happens when I'm playing music on Spotify. It's been happening for about three days. I have tried disconnecting my phone from the TV and reconnecting it. It worked for a bit but then I went to turn my volume back up and it jumped to 20. I tried to turn it down but it keeps jumping back up.

Re: Using the Roku app, my volume jumps up randomly.

Hello! @Alea_Spirit,

Thanks for the update,

A system restart is the least invasive reset method. If you have a Roku TV, it is not the same as pressing the power button on the remote or the physical power button on the TV itself. Instead, a system restart is performed by removing the power cord from your Roku device for at least 10 seconds before plugging it back in. If reaching the power cord is inconvenient, you can also use the instructions below to perform a system restart from the Settings menu (assuming you can control your Roku device with the remote or the free Roku mobile app for iOS® or Android).

  1. Press Home on your Roku remote
  2. Scroll and select Settings
  3. Select System
  4. Select Power. If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.
  5. Select System restart

In either case, your Roku device will complete a system restart and hopefully return to normal operation after a moment.

Thanks,
Arjiemar
