Roku
by Roku
Your favorite entertainment is just a few words away. Ask Alexa to find movies and shows, pause, launch channels, and more on your Roku devices.
Examples of how you can use Alexa to control media playback on your Roku devices:
“Alexa, pause on kitchen Roku”
“Alexa, launch Netflix on living room Roku”
“Alexa, go home on office Roku”
“Alexa, find documentaries on bedroom Roku”
If you have a Roku TV, you can also ask Alexa to do things like:
“Alexa, turn on kitchen Roku”***
“Alexa, turn up the volume on living room Roku”
“Alexa, mute on office Roku”
“Alexa, change to channel 5.1 on bedroom Roku”****
“Alexa, switch to HDMI 2 on living room Roku”
*** You must have Fast TV Start enabled on your Roku TV to use Alexa voice commands to turn on your TV.
**** You must have an HDTV antenna connected to your Roku TV to use Alexa voice commands to change channels on your TV tuner.
