You can now control your Roku with an Amazon Echo

The makers of Roku have announced that their devices now have the ability to interact with the Amazon Echo.

After installing the skill on your echo, it’ll allow the end user to issue voice commands such as “Alexa, open [app name] on Roku”

The skill will also allow someone to pause content, search for a TV show or movie, turn the TV on or off, adjust the volume and more.

In order for the above to work, you’ll have to own an Amazon Echo device, and have the both devices on the same WiFi network.

For more information, go to http://alexa.amazon.com and do a search for “Roku skill”.
