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 select from the search results, 
the TV starts playing the selected program. 
For more information, see Getting and using the Roku mobile app. 
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.
