Searching from the Roku mobile app
Use the free Roku mobile app on your compatible smartphone or tablet to make
searching even faster. Use your mobile device’s keypad to type more quickly and
easily than with the on-screen keyboard on your TV.
Only in the United States, you
also can search simply by touching the Voice Search icon and saying the name of the
movie, TV show, actor or director, streaming channel, or game.
When you use the Roku mobile app to search, search results are shown on your
mobile device instead of on the TV screen. When you make a selection from the
search results, the TV starts playing the selected program.

I found a show, now what?
Now that you’ve highlighted the show, movie, actor, game, or streaming channel you
were looking for, press the
RIGHT
arrow.
If your search result was an actor, director, or other item that does not represent a
single item of content, you’ll see another list to narrow down your search. Continue
highlighting results and pressing the
RIGHT
arrow until you find a single, viewable
content item.
