How to Pair a Roku Remote Without a Pairing Button?
You don’t need to actually “pair” a Roku Remote which doesn’t have a pairing button, since it uses IR beam to send command, all you need to do is point the IR beam light to the IR receiver of your Roku TV, also make sure that the path that the IR beam travels is clear.
There is a chance that the IR receiver of your TV is experiencing technical problem, so you might need to get close enough to send command signals. Despite that, you don’t really want to do that all the time while enjoying your holiday, so there is something else you could try in the following paragraph.
Where is the Pairing Button for a Roku Voice Remote?
The pairing button for a Roku Voice Remote Pro is on the back side or the remote, so does its status LED light.
The pairing button for a Roku Voice Remote is located inside the battery’s hatch, which is a small little clicker by the status LED light.
Possible Reasons that a Roku Remote Doesn’t Work
There are many possible reasons that a Roku remote doesn’t work, and here we just take out the Roku Simple Remote as an example, since it is the one without the pairing button.
Possibility #1. You Didn’t Point IR Light to Receiver on TV
Since the IR beam can be treated as laser, it goes in a straight line and you should always make sure that the IR light is pointing to the IR receiver on your Roku TV.
There is a chance you might hardly find the IR receiver on your Roku TV, and all you need to do is look for a little tinted window on the monitor side, that will be the IR receiver.
Possibility #2. IR Beam Has Been Blocked
If you have things in front of your TV, a coffee table lets say, you should always make sure that it doesn’t block the path that the IR beam travels. Once you blocked the IR beam, your Roku TV has no way to receive any commanding signals from your Roku Simple Remote.
Possibility #3. IR Light or Receiver Has Problem
If your either your Roku Simple Remote or the Roku TV has problems with their IR sending and receiving modules, you cannot remote control your Roku TV with the remote. In this case, you should first troubleshoot the problem, and then change the remote or take your Roku TV to a repair shop.
How to Remote Roku TV Without Remote?

After you have downloaded and installed the app, you just need a few setups to pair it with your Roku TV.
Step 1. Make sure your smart phone is connecting to the same Wi-Fi network as your Roku TV does, and if not, go to the settings interface of your phone to make the change.
Step 2. Click the Tap to Select area.
Step 3. Choose your Roku TV on the detected devices list.
Step 4. Click the Connect button and the connection between your smart phone and your Roku TV will be automatically established.
After the pairing procedure, you will be able to remote control your Roku TV with your smart phone, and ignore the inconveniences of an IR remote controller.
