Default Universal Remote recommendation.

Just got a new Roku 4K TV installed with a sound bar. We now have 3 remote controls, one which needs to be switched back & forth depending on the source of the content.

So, I am looking for recommendations for a good universal remote control. Does anybody have any experience with them?

Logitech Harmony with the hub is great and if you have an Alexa device you can use it to control your TV. I've literally not pressed the on or off button in probably a year or more. I just tell it to turn on and off the TV.

Can’t wait to see some recommendations. Currently jugging a remote for the cable box, a remote for ROKU, a remote for the DVD player and a remote for the flatscreen. Good grief.

I also have a Logitech, which can run the gamut from affordable to pricey. I found mine to be complicated and then I learned about phone apps that control many devices and are free. If you can find a used Logitech for a reasonable price and don't m8nd a learning curve,
that might give you what you need.
