      Hello, Patricia, thank you for your feedback. None of our universal remotes work with FireStick or Roku sticks because they use Bluetooth to communicate and not IR signals. Our focus is to provide quality products that deliver and exceed our customer’s expectations. Your honest feedback is the key to helping us improve our product and future customer experiences. If there is anything we can do to improve your overall experience, we would greatly appreciate the opportunity. Please call us at 1-800-654-8483. We are open Monday-Friday from 7am-8pm CST.
